Yes, it is the New Year coming up but it's so much more than that. January will change our address and a big shift in me personally. I'll have to consider what to do with this blog as it won't be about Asia/Europe travel anymore. Also, 2020 will require my husband to make a big … Continue reading Preparing For Change

What do you mean it's not all about me?
I'm goofy, I'm geeky, I'm a bit emo, I'm living in Italy!
You Have to Get Over Me
It was a double date. The other girl, one of my oldest friends. The girl from high school who I hung out with the most, partied with, got into trouble with, got arrested with. Shenanigans. Her date was my ex-boyfriend and I wasn't ready to see that. My date was nobody distinctive, just a guy, … Continue reading You Have to Get Over Me
Out of Sorts
October was a very strange month for me. Starting with fighting a bad cold which had me pretty laid up for about two weeks then just as I was getting back on my feet we decided to go to a movie on the Navy base and the next morning I had pink eye. Oh and … Continue reading Out of Sorts

A Lovely Sunday
We haven't been on a tour through the base services in quite a while so when we saw a tour for a honey farm and wine tasting in the Avellino Province, where it's nice and cool, we jumped on it and are so glad we did. The honey farm was really a chestnut tree farm … Continue reading A Lovely Sunday
Rome Again
Had a friend come through Rome so I went up to play for a couple of days. It's always fun to see sites through someone's eyes for the first time. She had been to Rome before but had not gone to the Pantheon yet so we did that, it's still my favorite site in Rome. … Continue reading Rome Again
Liverpool and North Wales
I really wanted to see a different part of the UK, up to this point I'd basically seen Scotland and London. The decision of where to go was easy because I have a few contacts in North Wales, some people I haven't met in person but was very actively gaming with nearly 10 years ago … Continue reading Liverpool and North Wales
