Traveling the world – Adventures of a wonderlust cat mom
When I was a kid, I took fiddle lessons. I actually liked the fiddle but hated the lessons. It was only one hour a week but the hours required in between lessons to practice was the worst part of my day... after just a year, I quit. Over the years, I've picked up my fiddle… Continue reading Driving in Ireland – A first timers guide
4 things I learned from attending my first Premier League football game in London.
When people first think of Munich, many think of the world famous Oktoberfest, lederhosen, and beer... and I'm not going to lie, before heading there I had the same preconceptions too. However, after spending a week in the area, I've come to realize there's more to Bavaria than just beer, beer, and well, more beer,… Continue reading The many beers of Bavaria

It's 6 a.m. and I'm on vacation. As I wander around my hotel room half asleep, rushing to get ready, I curse at myself for waking up so early, but it's a sacrifice I'm willing to make. It's all so I can get the early, and slightly cheaper, train to Reims. From Gare de Paris-Est,… Continue reading A Day in Champagne
It's been a long few days. I've just turned 30 and since then, everything has been going downhill.

Up ahead are white dusted tipped mountains, down below are valleys, and I'm somewhere in the middle, driving along twisty mountain roads in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Although I've never been in this part of the world before, I find it strangely familiar. It's as if all of the cities and all of the countries I've… Continue reading A day in Mostar, Bosnia & Herzegovina
