Temps De Ski
So it’s been 2 weeks here now living in French Alps. The ski season is just about upon us here, and honestly we’re loving every second of our time here this far. The team were an apart of here only comes close to the magic we had while working in Germany. Today we were all…
Feelin’ Venice
Continuing from Johana and my story in Spain, on the 8th of this month, we flew into Venice, Italy. We booked a beautiful Airbnb and planned to do nothing more than enjoy the city while we prepared for the next step in our journey. We could have chosen to go anywhere in the world when…
Expect the Unexpected
So, our plans for Spain didn’t exactly go as we had imagined. We spent a few weeks working at the place we had planned to be at for quite some time ahead. It quickly became clear the price that would be asked of us if we stayed. So we all sat down and agreed that…
Spanish Paradise
After having spent the entire summer at the Castle—not particularly happy and itching for so much more—these last 72 hours couldn’t have been more of a pleasure. My gut and heart tell me we’ve found a real gem here: Spanish Paradise… We left the Castle on a good note. We said farewell to our friends…
Tschüss Castle
Today officially marks the end of our summer contract here at the castle. In three days, we have a flight from Vienna to Barcelona, where Johana and I will be starting a new chapter in Costa Brava, in the northeast of Spain. We cannot wait to see what this new chapter will bring! It’s been…
The New York Chapter
The New York Chapter Without a doubt, this was the hardest and most soul-crushing period of my life. It was heartbreak, poverty, insanity, and desperation that played a key role in forging who I am today. Despite how grim it all was, I’m glad I went through it. As Nietzsche said: “That which does not…
The Lost Chapters
I recently felt inspired to sit down and write about some of my stories that I haven’t shared before. When I started the blog, I covered a lot of ground writing about both summertime and wintertime. But I want to focus on the latter for this one, because without a doubt, it was the most…
Birthday Surprise
I love this woman. Johana had been planning something for my 26th birthday now for a month. She meticulously crafted and thought carefully about everything. Completely to my surprise, she had planned a full birthday party, with cake, presents, and friends. It was easily the warmest and most special birthday of my life and I…
Hitchhiking to Budapest!
The Journey Pretty much out of nowhere, Johana and I decided that we were going to try hitchhiking to Budapest for the week—and that’s exactly what we did! We had been talking about doing it together for some time. We had the week free from work at the castle, the weather was perfect, and Budapest…
Castle
After our road trip , we made our way down to the south of Austria, where we have settled down in a 13th century castle. The plan is to spend the summer here, and so far, it’s looking to be a great start to the season! The estate is beautifully intact and rich with history.…
