Travel Journal Archives: Iceland and Beyond: Days 7 and 8

Friday, May 5th, 2017, Dalvik to Borgarfjordur: As I predicted, my written recap of journal entries decreased with each day of this trip, not for lack of things to write about, but because I got too caught up in conversations and moments and told myself I’d write them all

Wednesday, May 3rd, 2017, East Fjords: On the bus again that morning, headed east, we finally glimpsed blue skies.

Travel Journal Archives: Iceland and Beyond: Days 3 and 4

I realize I’m going to lose you all if I continue this one-article-per-vacation-day business, so here’s my attempt to consolidate. Sort of. Monday, May 1st, 2017: Arctic Adventures [https://adventures.is/] 6 Day Tour Around 4 am, I woke to the sound of violent winds trying to force

Travel Journal Archives: Iceland and Beyond: Day 2

Sunday, April 30th, 2017: Reykjavik (Rake-ya-vick): I’m not really the best sleeper–not that I don’t love sleep, because I thoroughly enjoy it, when I get it–but a deep, restful sleep doesn’t always come easy to me unless the conditions are perfect. Not too warm, no

Travel Journal Archives: Iceland and Beyond: Day 1

I don’t have scientific proof or anything, but I’m pretty sure I’m a better person when I have a trip on my horizon. Life is more enjoyable, and I am more efficient, when I have a vacation I’m looking forward to and actively planning and saving

Adventures: Throwback to Italia (Part 2)

Finally continuing my walk down memory lane of the time I tread Italian streets…now where was I? Right, after 2 days of stormy skies and mild rain, we departed Riomaggiore, Cinque Terre, on a bright, sunny day toward Florence. [https://i1.wp.com/3.bp.blogspot.com/-3sEI8ICNoO0/VBOvmSOICfI/

Adventures: Summer Roundtrip Roadtrip Continued

My dad and I drove through the night from Salem, Oregon and finally reached the Anaheim, California area around 11 AM Friday. By the time we checked-in to our hotel room and made ourselves look alive (we’d been awake for 36 hours), then dropped Samson off at doggy daycare

Adventures: Summer Roundtrip Roadtrip

In order to keep my sanity, I just had to get out of the Arizona heat this summer. After ho-humming and planning out what to do, I decided I would visit my roots in Oregon for the first time in 2 years. I couldn’t bear the thought of leaving

Adventures: Throwback to Italia (Part 1)

You know how some experiences don’t really sink in as valid and incredible until later in time, possibly when recapping on old pictures? [https://i1.wp.com/3.bp.blogspot.com/-kYlrgKeeD8M/Uy3IL3NSQ3I/AAAAAAAAAkQ/hFY_jt2qnn0/s1600/IMG_8668.jpg] There is nothing like the coffee in Italy…so

Adventures: A Girl and Her Dog

I can’t speak for every girl, but I can say diamonds are not and have never been my best friends. Though they sparkle, diamonds have never smiled at me; they have never laid their head in my lap when I’ve had a rough day. Gems and stones might

Our Mission: To Boldly Go Where Neither of Us Had Gone Before

No, we are not Star Trek junkies (only know the one line, sorry). But we are into amazing adventures and new experiences. [https://i0.wp.com/2.bp.blogspot.com/-Jk16Iy7HZW8/UZ8XkHzoK_I/AAAAAAAAACw/JNHOF5KhNkw/s1600/IMG_9826ed2.jpg] Star Wars is better anyway… Hence, Emily’s and my first
