A woman with an incredible sense of adventure, a drive to be successful and a passion for travel.
I took a Friday off of work yesterday then took a flight to Seattle for the weekend. I'm in town to attend an Ed Sheeran concert tonight. After connecting in Denver then San Francisco I finally made it to my destination just after 5pm. After checking into the hotel and changing clothes I hopped into... Continue Reading →
Better late than never! It's Saturday as I start to write this from my bedroom. I'm now back home. My scrape from the bicycle crash looks worse than day 1 but it's healing as are my bruises. I've had a case of jet lag that has made catching up difficult until now. I'll rewind a couple... Continue Reading →
The hotel room has great big windows that offer wonderful views of Amsterdam. They allow the sun to shine in as soon as it rises, as a result I'm naturally waking up earlier than usual which I love because it allows me to begin my day earlier. Getting out of bed my body was sore from... Continue Reading →

Checking out of the hotel was complete and the luggage was left in storage. I walked across the way to... Continue Reading →
I forgot to mention that yesterday's lunch at Versailles was nearly impossible to eat. I ordered a brie sandwich but the crust on the baguette was as tough as could be! It was quite funny watching everyone play tug of war with their lunch. After consuming about a third of my sandwich I called it... Continue Reading →
Last night I heard a French man serenading in the street near the Eiffel Tower he sang La Bamba. I know, I thought it was random too. This morning on the RER on my way to the Palace of Versailles another musician was serenading with more Spanish tunes. Both were wonderful and on each occasion... Continue Reading →
My nap from the day before turned into a 13 hour sleep. I found myself awake at 4 am and feeling pretty rested. I flicked through the photos I took the day before and jotted down a few notes from the experience. After about an hour of writing I went back to sleep for a... Continue Reading →
