Autumn Auspices
I haven’t posted in five weeks, I know!! My six classes, two clubs, and writing associate job got the better of me this month. Since my life has mostly been consumed with work and not any glamorous tours of Europe lately, I’ll give you some recs of stuff I’ve been…

I Believe Her
Much has happened this week and it’s difficult to find the words to articulate the sinking feeling I get when thinking about the Brett Kavanaugh nomination. “Entitled men have a remarkable ability to be oblivious to the damage they inflict,” New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof wrote in his column…

Twenty-Two
Hey, I don’t know about you…but I’m (not quite) feeling 22! 22 feels old to me, which is laughable, I know, but I’m still very much as unadult-like as I was years ago. I did, however, manage to drive around yesterday and blast Taylor Swift’s “22” to make me feel…

It’s a Good Day to be a Buckeye
Week 2 of classes is upon me! My last first day of school on the 21st was a strange mix of feelings. First of all, I was deeply missing the winding, cobblestoned walk to my London classrooms. I never took that walk for granted when I was there, and I…

Life after London
Alright, a “couple weeks” blog hiatus turned into, like, a month and a half blog hiatus. But that’s ok. I’ve been busy working and reading and hanging with my friends and family, uninterrupted. I’m happy to get back to this, though, and remember what exactly I wrote about before this…

France, Spain and Home Again
I got home on Wednesday, May 23rd. My last week in Europe feels like forever ago. Sam and I were pretty stressed for a few days, about a week and a half ago, when we got stuck in Lyon, France, because of train strikes. We were trying to get to…

Alpine Adventures
I’ll tell you what, the hills are definitely alive with the sound of music. Sam and I began our Eurailing adventure through Austria on Sunday. A Eurail Pass is a universal ticket for mostly all European trains. There are a bunch of different options, like single-country passes, 2-4 country passes,…
