I know it’s wrong – Starbucks is evil and all that… But I would KILL for a grande gingerbread latte right now. Or a vanilla latte. I can’t get one here in the Czech Republic, but I could hop on over to the United Arab Emirates and hit a local Starbucks. Does something seem a […]
This quote on two muses seems appropriate today (but make sure to go view the picture she chose to go with it, as it really is needed to be seen to capture my mood today!): “every cloud has its silver lining but it is sometimes a little difficult to get it to the mint.” – […]
teachers manual Funniest line in comment history: “3 job interviews in a day is indeed awesome. And also proves you are not still in the US. Haha!” (How very true!) So I had work after walking out of my first interview. I’m only teaching for 16 hours so far, but they’ll be dumping up to […]
Happiness is walking to the metro in Prague wearing my fall weather brown lace up boots, my black turtleneck, trenchcoat and feeling a slight chill. Do you remember my screaming ranting raving about how much I hate Prague and I how I would NEVER EVER EVER go back? I’m back. And it feels SO good. […]
Oh, dear god I have a lot to tell you people. My laptop keyboard is !@#$%^& up, so pardon the typos and extra spaces. For starters – I’m doing well. I’m stumbling along the way, but I personally feel like I’ve made more progress in the past couple weeks than I have in years. I’m […]
I have TOO MUCH I want to say, so of course it’s going to take awhile until I say anything at all. So just a quick update for now: 1. Am back in Portugal, staying here until the 28th when I go back to Prague 2. Driving through Europe is terribly easy – I had […]
The name of this town I stayed in last night is Évora. I’ve come to the conclusion that must be Portuguese for “pork.” Ok, not really – but they are REALLY fond of pork here. Last night, I decided he was in the mood for roasted chicken. So I walked around for about an hour […]
I´m in Portugal! I stayed outside of Cascais last night, with an acquaintance and his. It was a full house with said acquaintance, his girlfriend, their baby, his sister and his mom. Early this afternoon I drove to Evora – there is no other word to better describe it than “quaint.” There will be lots […]
Oh my goodness do I have stories to tell you when I have more time. I realized today: I thought the past few years of my life had been building up to this point. I thought that Prague was the final destination. But I had an epiphany this morning – all these years have only […]
