Yay! I finally got to travel again and visit someplace new! Not that I need to be travelling all the time, but it gives me something excellent to write about. And this trip was my "I just got laid off, and I need to do something" trip. Actually, the trip was thanks to some travel … Continue reading Buffalo NY and Niagara Falls
The blog has been on a hiatus as I have been working my butt off at my new seasonal summer job. And who would have thought? I'm working in the travel industry, selling train tickets in Europe! It's definitely something I know a bit about, and feels exciting talking about travel all day long. They … Continue reading Summer in the City
There were lots of surprises waiting for us in Atlanta when I visited for a weekend with my brother. Some of the most enjoyable moments were spent in places I never even heard about from the guide book... Like the Sweet Auburn Market aka Municipal Market I found by googling "farmers market" while we were … Continue reading Georgia on my mind: weekend in Atlanta
It's been a rather long time since I've posted anything, oops! It's been a busy month, finishing my internship at the Kohl Children's Museum, performing in the 42nd Annual Triton Troupers Circus, and starting a new job as a 'Travel Consultant' a few days later. It seems I'm still catching up. As is normal after … Continue reading Triton Troupers Circus 2013
We successfully held our third annual Poetry Party! Not everyone likes poetry, so we always try to keep things light-hearted and fun... Once again, it was a successful night with plenty of food and wine, and both very good and very bad poetry. Seriously, one of the highlights of the night was reading from a book titled 'Very … Continue reading Poetry Party #3
Lucky me, I got to attend the graduation ceremonies for my Masters course at the University of Leicester this past weekend. I graduated with a Masters in Museum Studies 'with Distinction', alongside the rest of my classmates from around the world. One of those classmates happens to be from the same city as me, so … Continue reading Graduation Celebrations!
So, of course with the new year, there have to be new adventures! I decided that if I were to make any new years resolutions that they would have to be simple: if I can make 2013 even half as exciting as last year, I will have succeeded. And another thing! I have been here … Continue reading Lake Geneva, Wisconsin: 22 mile hike
After a long and thoughtful walk through Fullersburg Woods I have had a chance to reflect on all the events of this past year; and what better time to reflect than the present? I’m astounded at how much has happened in one year, and hope I can give an accurate summary of it all. January … Continue reading My 2012 In Review
I have a hobby of collecting postcards. The way I see it is this: a postcard is the cheapest souvenir I can take with me, and when I can't travel the next best thing is to receive a postcard from some faraway place (or not so far as the case may be). Now I've got … Continue reading The World in Postcards
I realized that I had intended to post these beautiful pictures quite a while back, and it appears that it's been a good long time since I posted anything at all. I don't miss the rainy weather, but I do miss the scenery. There are plans in the works to head back to the UK … Continue reading South West England: Hope Cove and East Prawle
