Okay, so I’ve been in Dresden since Thursday and haven’t written anything about it yet (except for my new shoes I bought here). But I will. Yesterday I went to Leipzig, so since that’s over and done, I’ll write about that first. Pilgrimage It was a spectacular day. In fact, every day of this trip so far…
The best part of my day today was buying new shoes. Okay, that’s completely not true, except it kind of is.
I’m in Dresden now. I’m just bad at keeping up with the blog. Either I’m on the go, too tired, or busy planning what to do next. So I’ll give a few highlights from my last two days in Prague. I’m gonna blow through it quickly and touch on the things that I really don’t want…

When I think of uprooting myself from my life in Seattle and the USA and moving to a foreign country where I don’t know anyone and don’t speak the language (yet), my brain…
I have been thinking a lot about the situation here in Mexico that has led to long lines for gas and an explosion killing 90-some people in the state of Hidalgo.
Flying to GDL I was very happy to discover that Volaris flies nonstop from SeaTac to Guadalajara’s Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla International Airport. But next time I come down here, I might just decide it’s worth making a connection.
My last trip to Mexico was just over a year ago. Now I’m going back, to a different place and for a different reason. I’m currently at SeaTac waiting for my flight to Guadalajara, and I’ll be spending six nights in Ajijic. I first read about Ajijic a few months ago when I started researching…
