Two years ago today was the day everything changed. It was the day I bought a one way ticket to Barcelona. It was the day my dreams became a reality. It was the day I started to believe that anything was possible. That was both the scariest and happiest day. I was so scared … Continue reading 2 years ago

I have no clue what I'm doing, I have no clue where I'm going. While I know that I don't need to have a definite 10 year life plan at the moment, I need to have some sort of clue, at least some semblance of an idea. I need to make some sort of plan. … Continue reading the future freaks me out
What happens when you fall in love abroad? I thought that would be a question I would never need to figure out the answer to, a problem I would never face. But sometimes life doesn't happen the way you think it will. But the reality is I've met someone and it's really changed everything. The … Continue reading Love Abroad
Anxiety is like the giant elephant in the room. Something you always feel, always see, but no one else notices it... or wants to talk about it. It's something that I've kept out of my writing, and after having a rather difficult past few weeks I felt it was time to address it. (In some … Continue reading Living (abroad) with anxiety

The time has been completely and totally flying by. I have already been living in barcelona for a year and a half (minus … Continue reading Hello world (I’m back again)
I am back in America. Being home is amazing... But (and there's always a but) it's leaving me feeling so conflicted and with a zillion different questions rolling through my head. When I was in Barcelona I could not imagine any sort of life for myself back here in America... but now that I'm here I … Continue reading here vs. there
These past two months have been a complete and utter whirlwind (ergo why I haven't had much time to write). Full of ups and downs (mostly ups), lots of reflection on my past 11 months living in Europe, and just time enjoying this wonderful place and traveling. The biggest news... I am officially staying in … Continue reading ONE MORE YEAR!
Sometimes living abroad it is difficult to do "normal" things, or things you constantly do when living at home. You don't always realize how much you miss those things until you're reminded of them, either via a photo on social media, or just happening upon something one day. Sometimes it makes you homesick, sometimes it … Continue reading Bringing a slice of home to Barcelona
