Lessons we learned
Oct 18 2022 I spent the afternoon with my dog, Bonnie, at Daniel’s Gate Park reflecting on one week at home since G and I’s travels through Europe. In all honesty, the adjustment back has not been so easy. While Colorado will always be home, I feel I have left pieces of my heart in…
Full Circle
Oct 10 2022 G and I have officially completed our three week adventure across Europe. The past 96 hours have been a lot to process. We spent a short 36 hours in Barcelona, flew back to London, visited with our English mates (Mungo, Hugo, George, and Tom), and traveled 14 hours back to our home…
Our hardest goodbye
Oct 07 2022 It has been an incredibly emotional 72 hours. Today, G and I had to say goodbye to our Aussie’s. Jesse, Michael, Callan, and Dane became four of our best mates throughout this trip. We spent almost every minute together over the past three days. The six of us shared lots of laughs,…
Peronis, boats, & Aussies
Oct 05 2022 Positano is like nothing I have ever seen before. The cliff side village is located on southern Italy’s Amalfi Coast and is lined with narrow streets, boutiques, and restaurants. Our hostel has an incredible view of the coast and is a steep walk from the pebbled beaches. Jesse met up with three…
When in Rome
Oct 03 2022 I am sitting on the train to Sorrento struggling to recap the past 48 hours. G and I have spent our days walking through the streets of Rome and Naples and have become completely captivated. We can feel our Italian roots come to life. The incredible food, precious history, and sophisticated culture…
The motherland
Oct 01 2022 Ciao da Roma! Today’s blog will be short and sweet. G and I have officially arrived to our homeland, Italia. Italy is everything I expected and more and most definetly feels like home. The air is fresh, the streets are clean, and the people are beautiful. Yesterday was a bit of a…
Best first date ever
Sep 29 2022 Kythnos was a dream. G and I arrived on the island early yesterday morning. It is located 56 nautical miles from the Athenian harbor of Piraeus and is 38.68 sq mi in area with a coastline of 62 miles. When I was planning our trip I wanted to find an island that…
We missed our ferry
Sep 27 2022 Today marks one full week of our travels. While the week has absolutely flown by, it feels like we have been here for months. G and I have met more people and seen more of the world than I could have ever expected. We finished our last day in Athens at a…
Souvlakis, history & hostels
Sep 26 2022 The past 36 hours have set quite the precedent for our travels throughout Greece. We are staying at a beautiful hostel, Athens Hawks, in the central city of Athens. Athens is at the heart of Ancient Greece, a powerful civilization and empire with a recorded history spanning over 3,400 years. The city…
Tip #2: Always make it a double
Sep 24 2022 Today concludes our travels around London. We are leaving the city with new mates, British accents, and slight hangovers. G and I could not have asked for a better place to start our adventure. While we didn’t do much site seeing the rest of the trip, we built relationships that I know…
We made friends!!
Sep 23 2022 Day 2 in London was nothing like I had expected but everything I could have wished for. G and I made it a goal to hit many of the big tourist attractions that the city has to offer. We visited Camden Market, the London Eye, Westminster, and of course, Buckingham Palace. My…
We ordered nachos
Sep 21 2022 Today marks our first official day. G and I arrived safely in London early this morning and attempted to fight off the foredooming jet lag throughout much of the day. We are staying a few miles outside of the central city of London and enjoying navigating the city’s public transportation system. We…
Bella and Gianna, day 1
I am starting this blog in a small French café at DIA; which I find ironic considering I am about to embark on a 3-week adventure across European counteries (France, not included). I’ve decided to start blogging my thoughts to reflect, learn, and discern more about myself and the world around me (and also because…
