Just a city girl from LA moving out to a small town in the United Kingdom. Ready to travel and learn all at the same time for the next nine months. In love with adventures and food, so this is probably the place for you, too!

Bittersweet Goodbyes

Day 2 of my quarantine and I have still not fully come to terms with my return to the states. It feels surreal to be so close to home and yet unable to hug my mom and my brothers. Waving from a distance and still face-timing. I knew coming back under these circumstances would be … Continue reading Bittersweet Goodbyes →

The Land of Sheep and Cows

A wise man once told me that Wales wasn't a place to visit, however after visiting I have now discovered that he is not as wise as he originally claimed. The house trip to Snowdonia, aside from a small storm, was absolutely amazing. The views we got to see along the drive and the ones … Continue reading The Land of Sheep and Cows →

While I don't have a great deal of time to just sit and reflect I have recently been thinking about those that are no longer with me. The family that supported me when I was younger and … Continue reading Those Missed →

New Friends

So, it has been one week since the empty house filled with new exchange students. The verdict is in: they are all really great. Of course I miss my old housemates and was definitely sad to see them go, but I am really glad that I have new friends again. I'm still getting used to … Continue reading New Friends →

Kilts, Scots, and Killer Views

Hello everyone! Welcome back (switching post day to Thursday because it just makes sense) and I hope you are ready because this Scotland journey has been the craziest yet! With exams and essays finally turned in, and a whole lot of free time before the new term, I left for Edinburgh on the 22nd. I … Continue reading Kilts, Scots, and Killer Views →

Welcome Back

Hello my darlings. It has been quite awhile since my last post, I do apologize for being so MIA. With the end of the term and seeing exchange students before they leave I was just running out of free time to write. Plus, nothing quite interesting enough for the blog took place since my last … Continue reading Welcome Back →

My Irish Weekend

Hello everyone! Unfortunately, I have been disgustingly sick since Tuesday, so this weeks post is going to be a bit different. Especially because all I really want to do is go to bed when I should probably be working on my essay that is due in two weeks, sorry mom. I will say that I … Continue reading My Irish Weekend →
