And then the adventure began...

So after going to Venice with my family and Lara, and getting officially settled in Bologna, I've started to make travel plans! 

At the beginning of November I will be going to Paris to visit my friend Stella. If anyone has any recommendations, please send them my way!

And for Thanksgiving weekend, I will  be heading off to Madrid, and then Morocco with Stella, Gaby, and Kelly. 


Day trips across Italy will be scattered throughout the weeks. And there is a trip to the alps in the works for Winter. Also figuring out Amsterdam, Germany, etc. :) 

I am seriously so excited. 

For one night we'll be sleeping under the stars in the Sahara desert. 

I'm STOKED. I have a pretty intensive bucket list that I made a few months ago, for life in general. And I'm not crossing off a ton of stuff off the list while I'm here, but I'm getting closer to being able to cross things off; i.e. go to all 7 continents. 

I've had people tell me that although the bucket list is a nice idea, that I'm not going to be able to do all of those things. And to them, I say, you are SO incredibly WRONG.

Salty Projections

The moment the salty distaste of another fills your mouth with indigestible words is the moment self-loathing within becomes projected upon...
