morocco part II // all roads lead to essaouira
Bonus of hostels: when you’re sleeping two feet away from your adventuring companions, there’s a pretty strong likelihood that someone will wake up on time, even if it isn’t (ever) me. So, we managed to drag our sleepy asses down to … Continue reading

Morocco part I // Marrakech
Marrakech did not have particularly auspicious beginnings. My flight was at like 7-something in the morning, so I did not sleep, which I know is never a good idea, but I keep doing it anyway. And I couldn’t sleep on … Continue reading

Yesterday was three months to the day (I think) since I left Florida, and Spain is (I think) the 17th country I’ve set foot upon, not counting the transit limbo of Vienna and Amsterdam. I will probably be wandering for … Continue reading
roma part II // vatican city
After Tuesday’s sightseeing extravaganza, my toe/feet in general hurt too bad to particularly want to do a Colosseum or Forum tour like I’d intended, which sucks, but at least on Wednesday I did make it to Vatican City. I did … Continue reading

Roma part I // I’m a traveler, not a — no, okay, I’m a tourist.
A week ago tomorrow I waved farewell to the waters of Venice and hopped on my last Flixbus (until, like, next Thursday, anyway) to Rome. The bus had the absolutely appalling gall to not have decent wifi — what is this, … Continue reading

snow in venice
Italy must have known my ice queen self was en route, because it was snowing — fairly hard! — when I got there. Which was beautiful, though a bit frigid navigating the labyrinthine metro system and finding the right water … Continue reading

lovely ljubljana
Lovely, cold, cold Ljubljana. It’s weird, Ljubljana and Zagreb really weren’t much colder than most of Eastern Europe, and nowhere in the same fucking ballpark as the shit I used to bike through in Milwaukee, but the wind somehow was just so … Continue reading

and why am I in this handbasket?
I’m applying to a bunch of random work-stay type jobs in random places, but if none of them pan out, it’s probably about time to start thinking about winding up this particular vagabond session. I’m trying to think of the … Continue reading

zagreb photodump
Despite being the ice queen that I am, I admit I’m starting to understand why people give me funny looks for traveling Eastern Europe in the dead of winter. It wasn’t even that cold — around 20F/-7C — but the wind … Continue reading

five nights in bratislava [photodump]
Doesn’t have quite the same ring to it as One Night in Bangkok, but here we are. And since I just left Zagreb, Croatia today and am now in Ljubljana, Slovenia, I should probably try to catch up a little … Continue reading
