Love trumps hate.

I haven't been able to write lately. I just truly don't know what to say. I'm at a complete and total loss. I try to be personal in my posts, but I try to shy away from anything too controversial, political or anything that cause discomfort to anyone who reads this blog. But this stuff … Continue reading Love trumps hate.

A (traveler’s) writing paradox

I always wish I kept better journals of all my travels. A detailed recollection of all the wonderful things I saw, the amazing foods I ate and of all these incredible experiences I've had. But for me the reality of it comes down to the fact that after two years of living abroad, exploring Europe... … Continue reading A (traveler’s) writing paradox

neither here nor there

In a way lately I feel somewhat trapped between two lives. Both here and there, yet not really totally in one place at all.

I've been feeling so just blah.  I haven't been … Continue reading Home Again

The Labyrinth of Life

The park is absolutely beautiful and it's a pretty quite and relaxed place to spend an afternoon. It was a place … Continue reading The Labyrinth of Life 

LUCKY

...there are nights like tonight where I jusr take a step back and realize how truly lucky I am. Tonight there was a full moon casting a beautiful (yet eerie) glow over Barcelona. It was so bright, it light up everything and highlighted all the beautiful buildings in the Gothic neighborhood. As I walked around … Continue reading LUCKY

loss and learning

Today I've been spending a lot more time than usual reflecting on life....  I feel as if all my recent blog posts have been about all the crazy things spinning round and round in circles in my head.
