Roaming Rome (hehe word play)

July 6, 2014 / family, Italy, souvenirs, summer, travel

Who doesn’t love souvenir shops?! As I type this, I’m sitting on the top step of Palazzo delle Esposizioni, looking down on Via Nazionale in Rome. It’s the last night of my third trip to Rome, and the three words that cross my mind probably 15 times a day are again going through my head: […]

I Met Joe Jonas

June 26, 2014 / Fashion, Italy, Milan, summer, The List

I, Jesye Streisel, now a fangirl, met Joe Jonas at Men’s Fashion Week in Milan, June 2014. My life is complete 🙂 I almost took it off the list. I almost gave up and decided it was too far-fetched! I almost changed “See a celebrity at fashion week” to just “See a celebrity.” But I […]

Why Visit Manarola?

May 31, 2014 / food, Italy, travel

Landscape shot from the apartment! Before coming to Italy I obsessively searched Pinterest for travel ideas and I remember seeing a picture of beautiful, brightly colored buildings lining a rocky coast behind turquoise water. Turns out that gorgeous place was Cinque Terre annnnnd last weekend I visited the beautiful “Five Lands” for real! A few […]

Nice is Nice (see what I did there?)

April 30, 2014 / beach, food, France, market, Monaco, travel, wine

Amazing antique shop in Nice After my adventure in Turin/Torino (really, I’m not sure if it’s polite or pretentious to call the city by it’s Italian name… help?), I spent most of Spring Break being lazy. It’s funny how normal/boring life can be here. Wake up early, go to work, grocery shop, head home to […]

Taking Candy from Strangers

April 26, 2014 / Italy, market, solo, The List, travel

Rainy day in the park Another item checked off The List, and my first “Get on the Next Train Leaving the Station” trip under my belt. At first, my trip to Torino (Turin? I don’t know which is right) seemed a little like a bust. Leaving the train station may as well have been just jumping […]

Spontaneity

April 19, 2014 / Italy, solo, travel

I’m a planner. I plan everything and tend to be uncomfortable when things aren’t thoroughly organized, be it traveling, teaching, etc. I like knowing what comes next, and am one of those people who eagerly anticipates buying the perfect new planner each year. But even as a planner, spontaneous travel has always been on my […]

Beer and Antiques

March 30, 2014 / beer, Italy, market, Milan

Beautiful plaza full of charming shops This weekend I fully intended to take it easy. Parent/Teacher conferences are coming up, and Tuesday one of my very best friends is coming to visit, so there’s a lot to get done and this weekend seemed like the perfect chance. Well… that didn’t happen. I finally checked the […]
