And What I Actually Used... Packing clothes for a lengthy trip is one thing. I've already covered that in one of my posts, but packing the odds and ends isn't a piece of cake either. There's a lot of decision making when it comes to packing the stuff you take on a trip. You have [...]
Like many avid travelers, I too am a traveling fanatic. Although I travel a lot to different places, I always try to travel like a pro. Believe me, traveling in itself is fun, but traveling like a pro is like taking the aspect of fun to a whole new level. It is always assumed (and, rightfully so) that [...]

It is with great sadness that I must tell y'all that summer has ended in Ireland. It's over, gone, and won't be back until next July. The weather is turning cold again causing my mind to drift to warmer places. I would be so happy bumming on the beach now. Laying there with my feet [...]
Packing for a trip is a ritual. The process begins in my head well in advance of the trip. I go over every detail of what I could possibly need - clothes, gadgets, medicine. But somehow, the actual packing process doesn't begin until the night before the trip. I'm that person who runs around like [...]
My Auburn blanketis the one object that makes me feel at home. Lauren Cooper (then Higgins and my roommate) gave me this blanket for my birthday freshmen year of college.
