Day Six: Miramar , Hotel Nacional Y Caminando Our sixth day in Cuba was a little different than any other time we have been to Cuba. My mom wanted to check out a new place, so we headed to Miramar, which is known for grand houses, embassies and hotels. We had to walk a bit […]
Lately 3.0
Good morning! It’s been awhile since I’ve just chatted your ear off. Oh, you didn’t notice? (Ever realize that having a blog is just a place to talk to yourself?) I have a lot of pictures to unload, so for your viewing enjoyment and to catch you up on all fun things in my life…Here […]
Cuba 2015: Day Three and Four
Day Three- Making Friends The third day was a Saturday and it was the first day that I went out and about on my own! Well, not on my own, but not with my mom, either. My friend Eleanor (from HS), put me in contact with some Princeton students that are studying in Cuba. I […]
Breakfasts and Goodbyes.
Morning! Since I know you’ll be missing me dearly over the next 10-12 days, I wanted to pop in one more time before I leave. In case you haven’t been following my life/ blog as closely as you like to and don’t know–I will be in Cuba for 10 days from Thursday!! I leave for […]
Noshing and Snope.
I’ve been doing a ton of eating…seriously a ton. This was post first bowl of chicken-tortilla soup and pre- huge plate of various pastas, salads, and enough dessert to induce diabetes. I’ve also been doing some mediocre photo snapping. They’ve been collecting dust in my stuffed iPhone memory, so here I am, unloading them for […]
Lego World.
Russ and I had a really fun mid-week date on Thursday! Russ had 2 tickets to see “The Art of The Brick”, which is an exhibit with over 100 sculptures made entirely by LEGO bricks, by artist Nathan Sawaya. We started our date at Panera since we had a giftcard to use. I’ve only been […]
A Really Fun Weekend (+ Last Weekend!)
Hi Friends!! How was your weekend? I hope it was eggcellente and you’re ready to make this week a good one….or you’re already ready for next weekend. Either one is fine and completely understandable! **If you’ve been pining for pictures of me, this is the post for you. Hold onto your hats.** This weekend was […]
Date Weekend (x3)
Some call me the queen of enjoying countless hours doing absolutely nothing, and I wouldn’t go so far as to disagree with that title (I DID spend the equivalent of 2.5 days in bed watching Gilmore Girls over winter break and the other night I had a dream with Luke a Lorrelai, so…), but this […]
New York City 2014
Another year is almost over and it wouldn’t be complete with our annual trip to New York City! (2012, 2013,) My parents had trouble organizing their schedules, so Russ and I went ourselves and navigated the whole thing our own! If you know us, you know this is quite the accomplishment… We took Megabus to […]
Spicy Latin Playlist Numero Uno.
I wrote this post a long time ago and have had it saved in my drafts, but in light of the news that the United States has normalized relations with Cuba, I figured no better time than now to share this! You better start dancing so you’ll be ready for your upcoming trips to CUBA! […]
