The Great English Roadtrip: The Final Part
We were a bit loath to leave London, but ready to drive into the final legs of our roadtrip. Bidding farewell to the city, we drove on to Canterbury, England. Canterbury, England A long desired location on my bucket list, there was no way I was going to leave England without stopping through. It was…
Castle Chronicles: Dover Castle
On the final leg of our Great English Roadtrip, we made a stop in Dover on our journey from Canterbury to Folkestone to catch the train under the channel. Our crossing from France had been too foggy to see the White Cliffs, so I wanted to revisit the port town. I’m so glad we did…
Zwei Jahre
One thing I know for sure about myself is that I’m a dweller. And in that nature, I have been one of those that takes a moment to reflect on the prior year, as well as the year ahead. Reflect is probably the wrong word. What I really do is sit and marinate in stormy…
Single Parenthood Abroad
Many changes have happened in the past (almost) two years. We uprooted ourselves from Virginia and planted our roots in foreign soil. I left the hospital I’d begun and grown my career in; beginning anew in a completely different healthcare system. Tristan grudgingly left his friends and beloved neighborhood and followed his mama on a…
Castle Chronicles: The Tower of London
It’s hard to include little snippets of these great towering legends in general blog posts. These monuments of history deserve more than just a passing glance as they hold so much of our past in them. Sometimes it’s hard to imagine piles of great stone bricks shaping what the future became, but these buildings were…
The Great English Roadtrip: Part Three
As we become more experience travelers, Tristan and I have learned that we don’t always have to check off every item on our daily itinerary. Oftentimes, we set out for a packed day with intentions of visiting every destination, but ultimately we one place is more desired than another; or we don’t want to cross…
The Great English Roadtrip: Part Two
The next morning, we loaded back into the car for the next leg of our Great English Roadtrip. Tristan had expressed interest in taking the ferry across the Channel as well, so off we sailed across the Channel. Unfortunately, it was incredibly foggy, so we were unable to really enjoy the view, or see the…
The Great English Roadtrip: Part One
It’s still incredible to me, that I can show my parents the success that I’ve built in such a way that I can bring them to another part of the world for the very first time. I think it’s safe to say that my parents likely would never have made it to Europe had I…
Castle Chronicles: Gravensteen Castle
The castle was mentioned briefly in my previous post about Ghent because I felt it needed its own post as do all the castles we have visited. The Castle of the Counts makes seven castles visited at the time of our travel to the city, and one of our favorites. We were able to meander…
Gent, België
What do you do when you have a three day weekend? Lazying about on the couch was insanely tempting, but we are in Europa after all. Time is of the essence, they say – our time must be utilized! Taken advantage of! Never wasted! So, off Tristan and I went on a 4 hour drive…
