Im in my homeland of Tennessee for a brief time for my dear cousins wedding, giving me a little time to update from the travels. Ill do that in the next few days. For now, here is a tidbit from the d...
The train from Barcelona weaved between farms, mountains and the coast, fulfilling the ideas and conceptions that I believed southern France would hold. Our second stop was a small, shutter filled to...
The adventures have begun! We are in Barcelona enjoying the beautiful buildings and smelly atmosphere. I was expecting something of that of the films (Vicki Christina Barcelona to be exact) bu...
My incapability to get out of my own mind surprises me sometimes. Reality is something I avoid by staying up in my head, writing, watching too many films and surrounding myself with people a majority...
No matter how wonderful my time here has been, I cannot escape the thought that I have to go home. A 4,000 mile journey away from this little place Ive learned to adore and call home. Ill be far away...
[Photos from my trip to Paris, on the street]I am always a fan of supporting the emotional, intuitive side of women just as much as society supports the logical, tangible side of men. They are equal,...
My friends from home Rachel and Kelsey popped over the pond for a less-than-a-week holiday in the great UK. They arrived on St. Pattys day, a drizzly stereotypical English day, in London. We did a qu...
Paris, I feel has been waiting on me to arrive for two months now. My birthday trip in January was halted thanks to the sweetie that stole my passport. We found, however, that the weather is far supe...
"It was only a sunny smile, and little it cost in the giving, but like morning light it scattered the night and made the day worth living."— F. Scott Fitzgerald
When bad things happen, why do we ignore them? I stuff emotions deep down and hope it doesnt explode. People run from difficulties and hardships. But what Im talking about is the fact that the Wester...
Life is filled with unexpectedness. I am certain that I would rather not want to know what is going to happen in my life, but there are moments when I just get carried away thinking about the future....
Its hard to believe that I have been here for over six weeks! My heart is starting to attach itself to England and the way of life here. I cannot tell you all how much I adore it. The tea, the ...
Yesterday, I went to the cathedral for Ash Wednesday. Like always, it was chock full of older people. After a month and a half and many conversations I can only conclude that I am confused by religio...
Today almost felt like spring, and Im not sure quite why. I suppose its because I can smell rain in the air or possibly because the birds are chirping incessantly. You know, the birds here sound more...
The photos above are from our adventure in Brighton. While not the most fascinating place in the world, Brighton provided the fresh air and fresh scenery that we were aching for. There are, like Lond...
At the beginning of last week, I ventured to London for three days (the benefits of having class two days a week!). I was able to stay with my sweet friend from high school, Ginna Claire, in her posh...
View from my window!Found a magical little church and graveyard, went to the Canterbury Cathedral with my sweet friend from Tennessee, enjoyed a magnificent snow day and learned how much I dont care ...
I have many happies to share. First of all, I go to London on Tuesday to be touristy and to go to the Embassy (fingers crossed it wont be difficult). Second, I had a brilliant night out with my frien...
Our splendid day by the sea was filled with all sorts of delightful things: Fish, chips and mushy peas at a pub by the water where dogs roamed freely. Freezing cold wind piercing through our lack of ...
And here comes the post that no one wants to write.Everyone tells you before you leave on a trip abroad to be super careful. I heard it about three thousand times before I left. Not to mention, I was...
What I have learned while living in Canterbury:After getting over the initial shock of it, Ive come to accept that instant coffee isnt so bad! I dont really understand why that is the "coffee nor...
It amazes and astounds me that there could be such a random little Mexican place with a French name in the south east of England. Café des Amis seemed to prove me wrong. We enjoyed a perfect mea...
Sometimes you go on spontaneous adventures and find things that you thought only existed in films or books. And then sometimes, youre dumb enough to not have your camera with you. But then other time...
Well friends and family, I am here in the quaint Canterbury.I have waited to write this post because I wasnt sure where to start. My trip over all was great. It was only after I got here, alone in my...
Dude. I am getting on a plane tomorrow to live in another country until late June. YOWZA. Who knew this could be real life? Not I. I am still waiting for something to go wrong, and then, back to Knox...
In my creative waves and urges this semester I created this dandy pocket-sized address book. Perfect for keeping my nearest and dearest pals close by. I bound it with some string I bought at an antiq...
What is it about a new year that makes people crazy? Hundreds of thousands of people gather in freezing weather to watch a ball, think about it, a ball drop. It seems like most people find a party or...
My days here in the grande US of A are drawing to a close, and I am preparing for an adventure of a lifetime (or so Im told). On one hand, I feel terrified, anxious and nauseous of the massive change...
How is it that when I get a break from school and actually have free time, I end up with nothing to write about? I have nothing I care to share, nothing interesting (such a lie) and no adeq...
My love for flowers is renowned and overwhelming. My twitter byline: I like all things flowered. My room, Pinterest and attention is most often distracted by the glimpse of delicate flowers in the co...
