Independence
Happy Independence Day, America! It is still really difficult for me to fully grasp what independence means for a country – it is definitely something I take for granted. However, I think getting older and visiting more of the world has helped me understand America’s independence a bit better. We’re a relatively young country (in […]
New England Trip 2010, Day 1
Two years ago today my family and I took an amazing trip to the East Coast. We flew into Boston and eventually made our way up to Maine and back. The first evening in Boston, we did a bit of sightseeing on our way to find some eats. I’m only throwing in this picture because […]
Six Months Ago
Six months ago I returned home from the best experience of my life: studying abroad in Kingston-upon-Thames, London, England. To commemorate my amazing journey, I thought I’d share some pictures I took during a walking tour of London that my dad and I took one of the first days that I was there. I hope […]
Liverpool Recap: Day Two
I’m so glad so many of you enjoyed my recap of our first day in Liverpool! I love being able to connect with others through travel! Our second day started bright and early – my mom and I wanted to get out and grab breakfast before actually beginning our day. We were out of the […]
Liverpool Recap: Day One
Well, it’s a pretty lazy Sunday afternoon around here, so I thought I’d do another travel recap post! During early November 2011, when I was studying abroad in England, my mom and I amazingly had the same exact week off of school and work. She had already bought her plane ticket to visit during that […]
Mexico Recap: Days Four and Five
Hello and Happy Tuesday! Our final days in Mexico were just as fun as the first couple. One of the cool things about Vallarta Palace is that when you stay there, you get “free” resort dollars. You can use these to “pay” for massages, excursions, fun things to do on the resort, or to hire […]
Mexico Recap: Day Three
Hello and Happy Easter! It is a gorgeous day here…a bit chilly, but sunny and spring-y! We’re having a pretty laid-back Sunday today, so I thought I’d take some time and continue my recap of our Mexican vacation! On the third day, after lounging around the pool (and getting massages!), we decided to take a cab […]
Mexico Recap: Day Two
Hello! I hope you all enjoyed the recap of day one! Day two was probably my favorite out of the couple of days we spent in Puerto Vallarta. We woke up to a gorgeous, cool morning… And headed down to breakfast. I’ll say it again: the food in Mexico was amazing! The breakfast was chock […]
Mexico Recap: Day One
One year ago today my family took a trip to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. My mom (who is a teacher) and my brother (who is in high school) were both on spring break, so it seemed like a good time to go. Unfortunately, I missed a couple days of school and had to scramble to catch […]
Cardiff, Wales Recap (Two)
And to continue my recap of Cardiff, Wales…. As I mentioned, on Sunday I opted for a tour of the city. While the tour guide was kind of strange, and I did not learn too much, I still got some great pictures. The place below was called Bute Park, Cardiff Castle (or Parc […]
