Everyone knows that when you go to a party you should “never show up empty handed” and as of late I have become a believer in this. Whether it is a dessert or a little gift, the extra thought really counts. In case you don’t have as much time as I do to look on […]

Traveling will give you lots of things new experiences, good conversation, and once in a lifetime moments, but one thing it lacks is stability. This sounds like such a silly statement, but having your own space and knowing you can settle in it for longer than a couple of months is a luxury when traveling. […]

In keeping with my week of home cooked meals, I have also been eating at least three meals a day. I’ve always been the type of person who can go until 2:00 pm without a bite to eat and then get crazy hangry, and eat gross amounts of food. It’s only my third day of […]

This time last year, I found myself in another new place experiencing new adventures much like this past year. I spent a little over a week in Arezzo, Italy, where my grandparents have lived for the past few years. I had an amazing time with my family spending most days sightseeing and nights with good […]

After five weeks of traveling I am back home in Sydney. Here are a few snapshots from my trip to South East Asia: The monkeys at the Batu Caves steel any soda or bananas, even if they are in your purse! When we got to Bali they were celebrating Hindu Christmas. Amazing resort on Koh […]
