From home in Rochester, a five-hour drive will bring me to my beloved Lake Wallkill, New Jersey. A five-hour drive from Milan can end up in Munich. It blows my mind that road-tripping to Germany for the weekend is a possibility, but it is! Four friends and I packed ourselves into a tiny rental car […]
Nature Name: Champion of the Sun
Most beautiful moment of peace in the mountains This is going to be poorly written. I know it, and am sorry. Maybe I’ll edit tomorrow but no promises– I’m so behind on posts and just want to be up-to-date, and this is my last one for the night! It still is incredible to me that […]
We’re With the Band: A Day Trip in Bergamo
Last year another teacher sent me the most amazing thing in the world: the ‘to do list’ she gives to her visitors. As someone who’s been in Milan for probably 10 years (I can’t remember exactly how long it’s been), she’s explored so many areas and tried enough restaurants to really have it narrowed down […]
Where We Lay Our Scene
As I see more of my beautiful Italy, I can’t help loving it more and more. I still have nearly two years left on my contract, and I’m already starting to worry about how I’ll ever be able to leave. But enough of that, on to adventures! Last spring, a few friends and I found […]
My Personal Paradise: Granada
Most of this post was written from Bird Poop Plaza <3 As I said about Barcelona, Spain is my soul sister and being there makes me feel complete. Granada is forever close to my heart after being my first taste of Europe back in 2010. Studying abroad in the charismatic city was one of […]
Spain is My Soul Sister
Barcelona rekindled my love affair with Spain. I adore Italy with all of my heart, but Spain speaks to my soul. Somehow (you know, with all that studying/partying/traveling downtime) I never made it to Barcelona while studying abroad but after my visit with Holly I am just head-over-heels for the beautiful, colorful, sun-shining city. Prepare […]
It’s a Tough Life
In Morocco, I was so sick I felt like maybe I was going to die. It was the absolute worst. The most awful part was that we weren’t staying still; between staying with different families and the constant bus rides and activities, I couldn’t just lay in bed and sleep it off. Ugh. Poor Holly […]
Exploring the World Marco Polo Style
The second stop on our summer adventure was Venice, a city I’ve been dying to see for a while now. It’s a short train ride from Milan (though we traveled from Rome), and while it’s incredible enough to spend a month visiting, it’s also the perfect destination for a weekend getaway. Holly and I fell […]
