"And we take another step into the truly unknown, don't know why but it's somewhere that we have to go and it's dangerously wonderful" ~Into the Wild, Lewis Watson
In the midst of transferring my life from my old (yet wise) laptop to a newer one, I’ve spent some time rummaging through sentimental photos of my past travels. In the past, a select handful of these of photos have made their debut here and on Instagram, and while it is easy to fall for the distorted […]
I recently finished off a disposable camera that I’ve been carrying around since January 2015 (good work, memory) and took it to be developed. I’ve talked about film with you all before but just to summarize; back in high school I learned how to shoot black and white film with a manual camera, and with living […]
Amongst other travel necessities it is always smart to travel with a foodie, and luckily I have one! What is a foodie? They are someone with a keen taste in what’s delicious and where to find it, kind of like your own Buzzfeed article! My long term foodie is Zaneta, and she lived up to […]
“Though she be but little she is fierce.” -A Midsummer’s Night Dream, William Shakespeare. Quite a fitting line for two girls traveling through Europe, don’t you think? Appropriately so, we made a stop in Stratford Upon Avon, the birthplace of William Shakespeare, to spend the afternoon dining on a restaurant patio, perusing the historic figure’s hometown and […]

I recently passed the three year anniversary since I made my initial pond-hop to England (and started this blog!) and it feels like a lifetime ago. Returning to the UK has been on my mind pretty much since the day I left it so I am thrilled to announce that I will be crossing the Atlantic […]
Sorry Dorothy, but this isn’t a yellow brick road. This is my kind of brick road, Brick Lane, to be exact! One of my favorite things in life is modern art, specifically graffiti, so when I heard about all the free walls and famous tags along and around Brick Lane in the east end of […]
Hello world! First things first, I think it is necessary to bring up the fact that today it was warmer in London than San Francisco!!! Such a proud day for London. Take that, California! On to our next bit of business, this is just a brief blog post to fill you in on what’s happening in England […]
Aaaand I’m back in London! These four months I’m abroad are basically a game of Where’s Waldo for my parents, never quite sure where I am. I left Coventry for London late Monday morning, and after getting situated back at the flat and a bit of grocery shopping at Tesco, I got to spend the […]
