My dream is to travel the world and learn as many languages as I can. I have an outrageous list of seven languages that I hope communicate in. With this I hope to go into International Governmental Translation..one baby step at a time.

Please dont think I am lost. Yes I am in Greece but that is the only city it would let me choose on my phone. My journey in Greece has been as followed: Unbelievably and indescribably fantastic! First night we stopped in Delphi and let me tell you something. I will live there one day. It is so amazing! It isn't packed with tourists; it's just a small homey village on the hill over looking a valley of cities and the ocean. One downside to it though is this mean little shop owner who totally ripped me off on a pair of poor craftsmanship sandals and I had to pay for a replacement. I wasn't rude but I made it clear that I wasn't willing to pay full price for another set of sandals...I have been ... read more

Oh and I also got to meet a gorgeous and very ... read more

Europe June 6th 2011

June 5: Right about now the group is pooped! But today we got to go to Capri! It was so beautiful! The scenery is amazing! If you ever get to do something amazing then take a trip to Capri. The shops are georgeous the perfume is outstanding and the men are attractive! After that we headed over to Sorrento for a quick stop in the main square then headed over to our hotel for dinner. After that our little group traveled down the cliff to the black sandy beaches and Chris and John jumped in for a swim in the chilly water. When we got back the group received some bad news and a big decision needs to be made. I just ask everyone to Chris in their hearts as well as Jake Austin. June 6: ... read more

Europe June 3rd 2011

So I decided to just place both Rome days in one entry because I had a horrid migraine last night and found myself incapacitated.  June 3: We woke up and went to the Vatican which was absolutely mind blowing! Our guide's name was Elizabetta and she was super tall and super gorgeous and super nice; in summary she was a super guide.  Well the Vatican could easily have been its own day with all of its art work and sculptures and tapestries. My favorite part was the Stamp Room; every inch of the hall was covered in either an elaborate sculpted piece of gold or and intricate map. The light was also shining down the hallway so it illuminated every facet of the gold--absolutely astonishing.  Well like I said that could have easily been its own ... read more

Europe June 1st 2011

Well we made it to North Carolina safe and sound however the ride here wasn't exactly spacious. I had some man sitting in front of me with his daughter and wife. He thought it would be relaxing to lay his seat back and crush my legs at which point the pain in my sleeping legs caused me to fall into a deep slumber. Oh dear! They are calling for flight 720 to Rome! Got to go ;) So long America buon giorno Roma!... read more

Alrighty everyone! This is the final night in Colorado. Tomorrow we head to DIA and take off for Italy. A good chunk of the list is in my suite case but of course there is always that last minute stuff that just has to be put in two minutes before you rush out the door. ie. the makeup i plan on using in the morning to make myself decent for public. However, I am so excited I am having a hard time sitting still tonight. Thankfully my best friend was over all day to help get my mind off things. Le Plan d'Action! So the plan is that we arrive in Italy do our thing in Rome and a few other places then head over on a ferry to Greece spend a few days doing the ... read more
