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…
Euro Road Trip
What an adventure it has been these past few weeks. From a very heartfelt goodbye to our home in the north, to the south of France, the Tuscan countryside, Austria, Bavaria, and now a castle! Life is an adventure! Goodbyes 🌊 Picking up from where I left off last. Johana and I made our way…
Until We Meet Again
I’m writing this now on our final train ride to Hamburg. There, we have a rental car pickup, which we will use to drive across and explore much more of this beautiful continent. It’s been very melancholy these past few days. We’ve said goodbye to all our friends and colleagues here. We’ve packed all our…
Easter Week
Honestly, Easter week snuck up on me. As the old saying goes, time flies when you’re having fun. After arriving back from Düsseldorf a few weeks ago, Johana and I have been busy with our shifts at TSH, making plans for our upcoming road trip through Europe, and getting into new mini adventures! Hamburg-Gardens The…
Kaarster See
This adventure was a little bit spontaneous. My best friend reached out to me and told me that he had secured a cozy Airbnb for a mini vacation for himself, and that I was invited. I said hell yes, and got a ride down to where he was going to be. For this trip, I…
Knocking on Spring’s Door
Spring is almost here, and I couldn’t be happier! This winter in Germany has felt endless—so many dark days—but it’s had its own kind of magic. Now, I’m sitting here with the sun warming my face, surrounded by my plants, completely at peace. The birds are singing, and the world outside feels alive again. Our…
Wintertime Deutschland
These past few months somehow topped the summer, which was already legendary. It’s been something of a fairy tale, honestly. Fresh off the plane from Levi, I arrive back in Hamburg. I’m still a mess from the shock that had just occurred days ago. I’m headed back to the hotel and to all my friends…
Summertime Deutschland.
The Beginning By far, the best period of my life began in the summer of 2024. I had just begun a new chapter in my life, and I was eager to explore my father’s homeland and meet my family here in Germany! I arrived in Germany at the end of May, and for the first…
Auf Wiedersehen, U.S.A.
I’m not even sure where to start with my relationship with the United States. It’s where I was born, it’s what I know best, but man, am I glad to be away from it all. I have so much to say about this, but simply put, it’s a mess. I feel as if my life…
