Despite being alone for the majority of my time in Dubrovnik, I still look back at it as one of my favorite trips. I love traveling alone! For Spring Break, after some plans that I hope still happen another time fell through, I wanted to recreate the peace and relaxation of my time in Croatia, and […]
The One Where I Get Locked on a Train in Naples
Panthers and Unicorns and Snails, Oh My!
These two are the cutest! Nothing is better or makes me feel more centered than visiting with my family, and luckily for me, my parents have been able to visit every February since I arrived. I was incredibly excited for this visit, in part because they’d be staying with me in the city! During their […]
My Night at the Billionaire’s Club (and other experiences in Sardinia)
I’ve never been one to lay around on a beach. Growing up with summers at Lake Wallkill, going to the beach meant building intense sand neighborhoods and sand factories (yes, factories), swim races, trying to gather the courage to dive off the high diving board, and swimming to the raft where we’d play human bowling before the […]

Magic, Monarchs, and Malt: Thanksgiving in Scotland
For me, the hardest day to live abroad is Thanksgiving. Knowing my family is together, celebrating a holiday that for us has always been about togetherness, and not being there is heart wrenching. This year I even looked into plane tickets to make the trek back to Rochester for the four-day weekend, but by the time […]
Light vs. Dark
“Miss Streisel, can I share today?” For me, every day starts with at least three small voices asking that same question, and my answer is typically, “Of course, about what?” But when the response on November 16th was, “I want to share about Paris,” I momentarily froze. While it was weighing heavy on my mind, […]
Barcelona for Conference
Here for another quick post, this time on a conference I was very lucky to attend. This year, I went to the ECIS Conference in Barcelona for both a Responsive Classroom Pre-Conference, and the conference itself (jeez, how many times can I use the word conference, amiright?). SaveSave
