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
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 […]

But even as a planner, spontaneous travel has always been on my […]
Beer and Antiques
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 […]
