Budapest would probably not have made the list original list, but we could not come to Europe and not visit our friends! Spending a week in the city, living as ex-pats instead of tourists, was an eye-opening experience. We still did all of the touristy bits, like sight seeing and exploring the city, but weContinue reading “Budapest. A Week with Friends. “

The Ruins of Delphi
After a leisurely few days in Nafpaktos, the wanderlust kicked back into high gear. It was time to explore. We rented a car, consulted a map, and headed down the open road. We never planned on driving in Europe, since the street signs are different and there is no wifi for Google Maps, but itContinue reading “The Ruins of Delphi”
A Hidden Treasure
After a few days in Nafpaktos, Greece, I am surprised that this place is not crawling with tourist 12 months out of the year. Every local I talk too says the same thing: “you should see it in the summer.” And I would love to, but it’s beautiful now. Orange and lemon trees fill almostContinue reading “A Hidden Treasure”

Thank goodness my mother recommended we put our backpacks at the back door, packed and ready to go. We madeContinue reading “Away We Go”
Coffee is a MUST
We have 27 days until the Texas Bar Exam, and my go to is obviously coffee these days. I started thinking about what phrases I need to learn before traveling to all of the different countries on our list. I downloaded Earworms in Mandarin a few years ago when we hosted a few schoolsContinue reading “Coffee is a MUST”
