Hello all! I know it has been ages since I wrote (literally!) but it has been a very busy few months. Since I last wrote my Barecelona blog, I have been to Seoul, South Korea, Hong Kong, Macau, home in NYC, Costa Rica and Greece, and I am currently in Australia... know I have a lot of backdated entries to catch up on but I thought I would start with Greece since it's so fresh in my mind, so here goes! So I left the bitter cold of January in NYC to arrive in Athens, Greece in the 65 degree weather. Although 65 degree weather seems wonderful, unfortunately it is not the ideal time to be in Greece as the Greek Islands are not only dead in the winter- flights could get cancelled and ferries don't ... read more

Ahhhh after five long years since I had last been in Spain (Madrid 2005 study abroad) I finally returned, and realized instantly that if I could live anywhere in the world besides the US, Spain would be my top pick! During my time abroad in Spain, although I made it to Toledo, Cordoba, Sevilla, Granada and of course Madrid I somehow never made it to Barcelona- so I was super excited about the trip! (and also so sick of hearing "how did you study abroad in Spain and not make it to Barcelona?!?!?!") I had high expectations for the trip and espana did not let me down!!! I went with two other co rowkers, and we flew EasyJet (not a great experience- no assigned seats, weight limit on the baggage) from Geneva to Barcelona- (oh the ... read more

So, although I didn't want to start blogging in the middle of my journeys, I figured I would at least start with the most current trip (and maybe backtrack if I have time). Soo starting this blog's first "real" entry in Geneva, Switzerland. After being here for 1.5 weeks- one word really comes to mind if I have to describe this country- "Utopia". Per the Freedictionary.com - Utopia- An ideally perfect place, especially in its social, political, and moral aspects. I mean if these pictures dont look like an ideally perfect place tell me what does? When I think of ideally perfect I think a few things- 1. Wonderful food- Switzerland has the best chocolate in the world. And I am not a sweets person (sarah/lon/kel i know you recall i used to call myself "pepper-salty" ... read more

Hi Everyone! So as I have never "blogged" before, and I am new to this whole blogging world, I wasn't really sure how to start, but I guess the best way is just to give a little background. I wish I started this a few months ago, but I figured I would start now before it's too late and I fall too far behind! Figured I would start off with an about me, then in the upcoming entries do a real quick summary of the places I have been the best year and then keep it current going forward! I am 26 years old, and I travel internationally with work around 65 % of the time as an auditor for a publicly traded company. I must say its the most exciting job an accountant can get! ... read more
