I'm a planner. But, usually my planning tends to stress me out because I get worked up about every little detail. My husband has taught me that not all things need to be stressed about nor planned to the minute. (Well, it's something I'm working on). A week before our honeymoon to New Zealand, we… Continue reading Off to New Zealand!

Just like that, from summer to winter
Within a week I went from being in upper 80 degree (Fahrenheit) temperatures in Colombia to snowy trails in the Pacific Northwest. Just like that, from summer to winter. No, it's not snowing in Seattle. Yesterday I dragged Bryce with me to go on a "short nature walk" that turned into a five-mile hike. After… Continue reading Just like that, from summer to winter
The canceled flight and the two ships crossing in “the night”

Last Friday Phyllis and I were supposed to do afternoon tea and walk around downtown Seattle and see the gingerbread houses at the Sheraton and look at Pike Place Market all decked out in its… Continue reading Better now than in New Zealand!
So, have you been practicing your Spanish?
Every time I see or talk to my mom — which is at least once a week, if not more — she asks me if I have been practicing my Spanish. "No, too busy," I always mumble back. Bryce and I will be going to Colombia this Christmas to visit his grandma. It'll be my… Continue reading So, have you been practicing your Spanish?
Confirming travel plans from a stranger
Holiday travel can be a fun or stressful time, depending on who you are. I'll be traveling during Christmas time and while this trip to Calí, Colombia* is my next upcoming travel, Bryce and I have been more focused on another trip coming up at the end of January. This one is a trip to… Continue reading Confirming travel plans from a stranger
