It's time for another playlist of the month! January here in Portland has been an interesting mix of dreary, dreamy and downright terrifying between the many snowstorms and temperatures lingering dangerously around freezing point. Last week we got 10" inches of snow, which at first was very exciting and idyllic, until it all got trod on enough in below-32-degree weather that it turned into inches of ice covering all of the roads and sidewalks. It's all fun and games until you can't walk to the grocery store without slipping on a patch of ice and falling on your ass. But with my many (too many) days off, I've taken the opportunity to walk to nearby coffee shops, hunkering down with lattes, a good book, my journal, and--of course--a good playlist to keep myself sane in the midst of my cabin fever.<br />
<br />
I've definitely been favoring some moody songs lately to accompany the moody weather. Again, this playlist features a strange variety of songs, but I spent some time carefully arranging them in an order that flows nicely. For this reason, I recommend avoiding the shuffle button unless you want some serious genre whiplash. <br />
<br />
Hope the weather wherever you are is treating you well and that you're enjoying the first month of this new year!<br />
<br />
Happy listening!<br />

I wanted to set the tone for 2017 by talking about something that's had a hugely positive impact on my life lately, and that is the concept of slow living. And when I say slow living, I mean this: remaining an active participant in your life. For me, that's meant slowing down some of the things that I used to rush through on a day to day basis: making coffee, preparing and eating food, doing yoga, taking off my makeup and washing my face at the end of the day, etc. I've noticed that, as I take a moment to really engage in what I'm doing rather than rushing through the routine with a "get 'er done" kind of attitude, I no longer see these activities as chores but rather as opportunities to experience joy and express gratitude for each and every small moment in my day.</div>

The data from Matt's happiness research led to one really fascinating conclusion: <i>people are substantially less happy when their minds are wandering than when they're not, </i>regardless of if their minds are wandering to happier or unhappier subjects. In other words, happiness is (at the very least) strongly correlated with how present you are in whatever you are doing at that moment.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I think the moral of story here is clear: you can become a happier person simply by committing to what you are doing and remaining present in that moment. This scientific data only supports what many of us who practice yoga or meditation have heard many times before--that being <i>mindful </i>and <i>active </i>in our lives will bring us a depth of happiness that cannot be achieved through any sort of external means. I, personally, have found this to be absolutely true. The best part is this: it's <i>so easy</i> to implement in your daily life. The changes I've witnessed in my own happiness as a result of these small changes has been so unbelievably significant, that I knew I had to at least try to share it with others. It's one of those low risk/high reward kind of situations that seems like such a no-brainer, I feel I have no choice but to be an obnoxiously enthusiastic advocate for it.</div>

I do, however, think it's important to mention that this is not a one-and-done sort
of thing; I have to work really hard to keep this mindset on a daily basis, because it is so painfully easy to get drawn back into old habits. But I have come to see it as yet another tool on my belt that I know I can return to at any time.</div>

I hope you all had a lovely holiday season and are experiencing a great start to 2017. Lately I've been feeling such a surge of excitement for what's to come this year as well as a stirring of creative energy that's trying to fight its way out of my brain and into a more open space; as always, I hope that I will be utilizing this space to do that! This year I'm also attempting to jump on the bullet journal bandwagon, as a way of keeping the contents of my chaotic monkey mind a bit more organized. I'll let y'all know how that goes.....</div>

Well, I missed November, but I'm back with another monthly playlist! Spotify's Discover station has really been killing it for me lately. It's introduced me to such great new stuff as well as reminded me of songs I've loved and simply forgotten about. This month's playlist has an interesting mix of genres, but that's all
part of the fun. None of these songs are particularly festive for the
holiday season, so I'm contemplating coming up with a holiday playlist
as well in the next week or so; before it's too late to enjoy it. <br />
<br />
I hope everyone's having a great December as we look ahead to the start of another year. From what I can gather, the consensus about 2016 is that it's been a year full of changes and transitions, blanketing us all in a general sense of unease and instability; I certainly know that's been true for me. But as always, I know that my adaptations to new situations and environments have molded me into an even more solid version of myself. So I can leave 2016 feeling pretty confident that I'm somewhat less of a dumbass than I was last year! And that's really all I can ask for. <br />
<br />
Happy listening! <br />

I've always wanted music to play a significant role on my blog, but was never quite sure exactly how I wanted to make that happen. I personally am always desperate for recommendations for new music so I thought it would be interesting to share what I've been listening to lately in the form of an October playlist.<br />
<br />
Something about autumn makes me absolutely desperate for music that makes me feel...well, something. That indescribable "fall feeling" of the chill in the air, the changing leaves, that warm cup of coffee in my hand. Fall has always been my favorite season and I think it has something to do with that promise of a new start, originally associated with the school season but now so instilled in me that I just can't shake it. And I don't want to, because I'm one of those sappy millennials who believes whole-heartedly in the ongoing quest for self improvement. And change is in the air! I've started my three month interior design certification program and am absolutely loving it. So here's to change, to great music, and to the beautiful month of October. Enjoy!<br />

I made the mistake of "walking around" the Pearl district of Portland today...because we all know that "walking around" places like Powell's bookstore and Madewell is harmless, right? I was just doing some Sunday browsing, right? Well.....I headed home with a couple of goodies.<br />
<br />
I got my hands on this <a href="https://www.madewell.com/madewell_category/DENIMBAR/moredenim/PRDOVR~E5845/E5845.jsp" target="_blank">denim jacket</a> from Madewell that I've been lusting after for a while. I have a few denim jackets already, but this one has such a unique look to it, I couldn't resist--let the denim obsession continue. <br />

And of course nothing makes for a better Sunday browse around Portland than the famous Powell's bookstore. I went in with the intention of finding a new cookbook and I wasn't disappointed. The last few months, what with final exams and traveling and moving apartments, I've been eating way more takeout than I care to admit and I'm ready to get back on the healthy eating bandwagen; I'm excited to dig into <i>Clean Slate</i> and see what tasty recipes lie within. I also picked up <i>Big Magic </i>by Elizabeth Gilbert which seems to be all over the place lately. As an aspiring creative, I'm interested to see what she has to say about the creative process and how to keep the fresh ideas flowing. Finally, I couldn't resist grabbing <i>The Cool Factor</i> as I was walking by the street style section. Because, who doesn't want to know how to be cool? Or at least dress to appear so, which is probably the closest I'll ever get to being cool. <br />

Finally, I'm loving these Dr. Scholl's lace up shoes that I got at a cah-razy good price from <a href="http://shopadorn.com/" target="_blank">Adorn </a>with a employee discount. So far, I've been really good about not spending my entire paycheck on all of the amazing clothes they have, but I'm afraid these shoes may have opened the floodgates of outgoing money...self-control is a tricky thing, isn't it?Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08685793317589656795noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2970814396586794188.post-54316218015676185372016-05-20T10:32:00.000-07:002016-05-20T10:34:35.414-07:00Onward<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Every time I come back here, I find it so hard to put into words exactly what it is I want to say. Taking pictures is the easy part; writing is so much trickier. Sometimes I have to laugh a little bit at how much effort I put into my blog posts when I think about the measly number of page views it gets (the majority of them from my parents and most of the others inexplicably from Russia), but I also think keeping up with this blog is such a good exercise for me. So I guess we'll just see what direction this blog takes! Either it will keep getting better and better, or it will get shittier and shittier until I surrender to the fact that I am not good at this. Your guess is as good as mine!<br />
<br />
I did indeed graduate college two weeks ago; they didn't yank the diploma away from me and yell "PSYCH!" and laugh maniacally when I went to reach for it, as I irrationally feared. Then again, I haven't actually received my real diploma in the mail yet--so maybe I'm speaking too soon. <br />

My parents and I spent the rest of the weekend wandering around Portland, eating way too much food and enjoying the fact that our schedules were wide open for two whole days. It's always nice when people come to visit because that means I have an excuse to explore the city as if I'm a visitor too. I especially loved being able to bring my parents outside of downtown, which, truth be told, is really not the best part of Portland. We ventured into some of my favorites areas in Northeast and Southeast and they got to see what it really is about Portland that I have fallen so deeply in love with.<br />

Of course, we had to make one final pit stop before heading to Arizona, and that was to see the Lewis and Clark campus one more time--not that I won't be going back all the time just to walk around and enjoy its beauty. But it was nice and sentimental to walk around as an alumnus for the first time. The blooming flowers and lush landscape at this time of year is reason enough to make the trip.<br />

And here's where my life as a student ends, at least for now. Into the big, scary world of adulthood and finding "what I want to do with my life"....<br />

<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; font-size: 14px;">So here we are again: another time of my life that seems to be defined by things ending and starting. </span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; font-size: 14px;">In a week, I’ll be graduating from college. I know everyone says this, but I really don’t understand how this moment snuck up on me. Looking back on my years in college, I see so clearly the number of opportunities that I didn’t take advantage of. And I could very easily let these feelings take on the name</span> <i style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; font-size: 14px;">regret,</i><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; font-size: 14px;"> but I refuse to submit to that; instead, I’m bringing this awareness into the next phase as I keep an open mind about finding opportunities to do the things I love, the things I’m good at (aaand maybe get paid for it.)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; font-size: 14px;">In other news, I recently invited a new family member into my home—his name is Bagheera and he’s a cuddly little guy. </span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; font-size: 14px;">Our first weekend together involved a lot of crying (from both him and me), and I realized that I picked out a cat that was as emotional and anxious about new situations as I am—so in between crying, I had to laugh at the irony of the whole situation. Since then, we’ve started to feel more at home with each other and it’s nice having someone to come home to! He's pretty adorable, right?</span> </span><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZHV0vj3O4b7SSrQIWuDHqTT6EDVbDAgbb-duWIb07WDJh_T8fS-qzzr0zgekg6oLJrTOjxHbUb7TT8BaBiybjpNlYJdty299hsByXNTBXFqtBBitT7W1ct6CoPVbk1OYwr4jsBftNxn0/s1600/Blog.+Home+for+the+Holidays-4074.jpg" /></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; font-size: 14px;">Even though I’m still facing one more week of final projects, presentations, and exams, I’m so looking forward to a short hiatus with my family in Tucson, AZ after graduation. I’m dreaming of sunsets like this and I can’t wait to get back there with my camera. </span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; font-size: 14px;">After this little vacation, I’ll be returning to Portland to start my adult life….yikes.</span></div>

We stopped along a few beach towns throughout the day, taking a quick little walk around each of them. It was a great, classic, rainy Oregon day that involved hot clam chowder, salt water taffy, and sea lions (seeing them, not eating them.) This is the life, isn't it?<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiV5OglnJe6tbqwlKou668aF1Ik1lmUpz32ooVGwauCS9ejewYyARj-dqzHyzGP2904d96MwHEdKiyMJD3BqMxwmaYOYWMWAh-1A_k2vP26dqf_rPhHK34sBANlms69dUlA1EpEYNYpI64/s1600/IMG_3264.JPG" /></div>

Anyone that knows me knows that I'm quite the coffeeaddict (although I'm slowly transitioning out of using that email address anymore, being that I'm 21 years old and have gotten to the point that reading it aloud to strangers has gotten a bit embarrassing) and, regardless of the time of day, am almost always down to grab a hot cuppa somewhere. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Not only do I love coffee but I love the ritual of going to new spots around the city, exploring the different atmospheres and clientele of each shop. So I thought I'd start a little series called "Coffee Date" where I just share my excursions to different cool coffee shops around Portland.</div>

A friend and I made a little trip to Commissary a few Sundays ago to get some work done and have a change of scenery from being home or at the library. Commissary is a pretty new spot that opened up on 21st in NW Portland, a cool area that's far enough from 23rd to be pretty quiet and chill, even on the weekends. The building was previously a movie distribution center which is pretty cool; it's named after the place that actors in Hollywood would typically meet up for food in between shooting scenes. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The atmosphere in here is so lovely and clean; the space itself has a very industrial feel to it, but the vintage decor and natural light coming from the huge windows really brightens it up. As it is October, I had to go for a fall spice latte (my first of the season), and it was really tasty: smooth without being too sweet. We've now pegged this place as a favorite study spot so I'm sure we'll be back soon. </div>

Lately my life has been punctuated by a lot of different transitions; it's been five years since I've lived in the same place for more than one year at a time. But I'd be lying if I said that I haven't kind of loved it. The places I've lived, the experiences I've had, and the people I've met have really shaped me into the person I am now. Some have inspired me to be better, some have shown me what I'm not looking for in my life, and some have widened my perspective to the point where I can't imagine going back. Basically, I'm loving life right now, if for no other reason than this: my world is wide open. And I get to fill it, piece by piece, with the people and the things that make me happy. To quote my favorite yoga teacher, <a href="http://yogawithadriene.com/" target="_blank">Adriene Mishler</a>, I'm <i>finding what feels good.</i> <br />
<br />
Things that are making me feel good nowadays:<br />
1. My new space and the opportunity to make it my own. <br />
2. This beautiful city. Damn, PDX. You got it going on.<br />
3. The world of food and cooking--what a beautiful thing it is to create something that nourishes my soul and body!<br />
4. My daily yoga practice, keeping me grounded.<br />
5. New people. Although meeting new people and putting myself out there is always kind of scary, it's a challenge I'm willing to accept.<br />
6. This blog: another wide open space to cultivate some creativity. <br />
<br />
That being said, I have no idea where this blog will be going! There are so many things I want to use it for: to explore different spots around Portland, to develop my photography and writing skills, to document my cooking progress, and generally to share the things that make me happy. So I guess we'll just see where I can take this blog, and maybe more importantly, where it can take me. And if I collect a few people along the way who are interested in following this journey, even better!<br />
Happy Sunday everyone! Until next time.<br />

When a couple of friends came to Munich for a few days, I was lucky enough to
be able to tag along on one of their adventures. On their last full
day here, we rented a little Fiat for a day trip across Bavaria. First
stop: Zugspitze, the tallest mountain in Germany. It was a gorgeous 70
or so degrees at the base of the mountain, where we loaded onto the
cable car and were swiftly hoisted up to the top of the mountain in less than 10
minutes; when we got off it was about 35 degrees. The short trip on the
cable car was pretty awe-inspiring; at some points we were basically
going completely vertical. It was one of those moments where you just
have to stop and think about how beautiful this world is that we live
in.<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfyyBElczMgRg_UllJecd96jK2AuVzP9SduGrYYnpbpmrPl9pzieRivVxHxDHDL5YPcxt2jV7aQltW_v9rYqj3VA4Eoc_KxCM0AtLp2XGhq8EY2oViKIPWi9DqiRGxzEonPUGGmiCCpx5c/s1600/IMG_2979.JPG" /><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgX7nplRF_5VPrUT1jXEHJ6cdCeXG2w8N2uK5tvRabZNpVo7pd3iwfql8EK1jFjQDH_B9tOuk91qj2YBuS9nth9hh-DyOELV1MKm2ErSq45pdMqnkriutC3fakm_INj47bbJBY3qDobZTi3/s1600/IMG_2978.JPG" /></div>

Also at the base of the mountain is the Eibsee, a lake whose piercing aqua blue waters prompted another moment of sincere appreciation. <br />

We had a typical Bavarian lunch of sausage and beer, and I suppose it's pretty cool to say that we've eaten at the highest restaurant in Germany.<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzlUupZ64uyMrsF0-Etak8UeFNuJixCBOzLDK4Yxw_uVv1s7NLv4iAqF00W7P6N06L8LvGE1IFsJyfLThktP29cOaKXogf3o0S_ldOhhi3_q56yoG-fEBN7tGQMkT7VpwKCach1X8VAS5a/s1600/IMG_3011.JPG" /></div>
Here was the actual highest point, for those daring enough to climb up a ladder and then guide themselves up a snowy slope while being led only by a rope. <br />

After we made our descent back down the mountain we wanted to at least quickly check out the lake, where we found the paddle boat rental place--and of course they had an offer we couldn't resist, of only eight euros for an hour! We took turns paddling (although somehow I ended up paddling much slower and shorter distances than the others...) and enjoyed the amazing view.<br />

I know for a fact that I didn't go swimming at all last summer (shock and horror!), and I can't remember the last time I was out on open water like this. It felt so peaceful and calm and reminded me why I love being on the water. <img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQiDdLqascs3ik3eEIVnRg4E76xoL0TSiiIjlAxvtOytY0H2w8XCausjza_YLpvOKDPGEcaECQRlCIFvmaqZqbGrileJ4OzSwVdC7ceSzvdauqe3d2K660Bd9h3BZ6pGeCt7ErcQ8s9C5k/s1600/IMG_3053.JPG" /></div>

We ended the day with a super quick trip to Hohenschwangau to catch a glimpse of the Neuschwahnstein castle. Unfortunately we got there late enough in the day that we weren't able to go inside the castle or even make time for the hike up to it, but we had a lovely dinner right on the Alpsee, another picturesque glass-like lake. It was the perfect tribute to Bavaria just as I'm getting ready to say goodbye to my year in Germany.<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUpi4pYDvwFd3L8_YlZVxklb5uXUvLZIqE7wKvw2-fB_N9gSMpzPGQtbJjVUPE59cQCU9l-N8fYsNB_kq2Mf2rmt2W7H4XPtejXQHmxXd7nsGPFXmXnEiJsLRYalxgJFkJThxXyFaLQbIN/s1600/IMG_3077.JPG" /></div>

I came across the Freitag store online as I was doing a little research about fun things to do in the city of Zurich and after visiting their website, I immediately knew I was going to have to spend some time in their store, and I was 99.9% sure I would be walking out with at least one of their products. Visit their website for yourself and see what I mean-- <a href="http://www.freitag.ch/">www.Freitag.ch</a><br />
<br />
The store itself is made out of stacked shipping containers: 9 high and 4 wide at the bottom, then narrowing towards the top--19 containers in all. "Zurich’s first bonsai-skyscraper: Low enough not to violate the city’s
restriction on high-rise buildings. High enough to send shivers down
anyone’s spine." How cool is that?! It honestly does look a little unstable when you're viewing it from a little ways away, but once you're in the store you can barely tell. Until you climb to the observation deck, that is, located on the very top of the 19th container, which offers a very cool, industrial view of the city.<br />

Frau Gerold's Garten was something I would describe as hipster foodie and shopaholic heaven. It reminded me so much of the R.A.W. district in Berlin*, another one of my top favorite places I've been in Europe. Again, two words: Hipster Heaven.<br />
[<span style="font-size: x-small;">*a trip to Berlin on which I forgot my camera, something I will be kicking myself about for years to come]</span><br />

We lunched on some delicious salads and würst--my carrot salad was actually a salad made up of shredded carrot with goat cheese and pepita seeds, and it was <i>delicious</i>. <br />

For our last supper in Zurich we came to La Salle, a really lovely restaurant and bar located near Freitag in the more industrial section of town. We had the most delicious food I've eaten in a long time, including a melt-in-your-mouth vegetable ravioli, and beef filet with some sort of herb butter that I think God must have churned himself.<br />

It was so nice to be able to take a weekend trip to Zurich, Switzerland for a few days while my parents were visiting. We spent most of our short time there just exploring the city and trying to survive the sweltering heat! The weather really was lovely but I think our Scandinavian genetics just don't quite know how to deal with high temperatures properly. <img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyNoIgoJakyHKosu9cDtLhIx4WEPeONUHn97Hcs-bgxCgqtFszjZ7Z4vxDmpJgi6RwtDW3waF1peKsbsuf2KbfT__HG_qU2cDTJtuwPQW98W6z1UqJ0L3LvFEGG_HTedMfc_qfSuo_8gyR/s1600/IMG_2875.jpg" /></div>

We stayed in a beautiful, airy condominium located in a really cool part of town that we found through <a href="https://www.airbnb.com/?af=1922719&c=A_TC%3Dc2xcyypf93%26G_MT%3De%26G_CR%3D59519016503%26G_N%3Dg%26G_K%3Dairbnb%26G_P%3D%26G_D%3Dc&gclid=Cj0KEQjwqe-rBRCv_J6qs6isp6EBEiQAmbctFvgHoP3n8jlmOJaOAgihI9FPiH1G-9hZ1P-jpKe-ogoaAu0Z8P8HAQ&dclid=CLHD34vHjMYCFaJiwgod-U8AUg" target="_blank">AirBnB</a>, something I've become obsessed with since being in Europe. In my opinion its the most comfortable way to travel if your budget allows you to look outside of hostels. I feel like I see more of the city from a unique perspective when I stay somewhere a little off of the beaten-by-tourists path. </div>

Our condo had a great view of the river on the front side, and a lovely little balcony looking out onto some other condos with their beautiful rooftop gardens and terraces on the backside. Being able to wake up and go sit out on the balcony and drink my first few cups of coffee for the day was honestly one of the highlights of our stay there. It sets such a good tone for the rest of your day!</div>

We spent a good amount of time walking through the Old Town, which was well worth it. Wandering through the windy cobblestone streets along the river felt like the epitome of the European "dolce vita." It was so peaceful and beautiful and felt like a scene right out of a movie.<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWKVlS7nZrWT453pvdbGVbrsxR0LDfYWWYS6CUs2zI3GXkSWNVPhysq4wbQhWv-VsF_VnSOluWzJ_Spe2lMi1fikWRIxQdkkLGAJ1_l6dT8kDgeqZ64axzSuOopdpS9ibLdSjtc0jBgjiy/s1600/IMG_2940.JPG" /></div>

I reached the big number 21 this past week, and was so excited to have my parents be able to come visit me for my birthday week! We spent most of the week in Zurich, Switzerland but for their short time in Munich, I thought we'd check out Schloss Nymphenburg. Our program went to Nymphenburg at the beginning of our academic year here, but I didn't bring my camera and I knew I would be back in the summer months to revisit the grounds and get a few good pictures. We were really lucky and got some beautiful weather in between the bouts of rainy, gloomy days that Munich has been having recently, so we spent a few hours exploring the grounds and checking out some of the Baroque architecture.<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEix-XuK9Wp-j5D79g3ArmzqY-54gGlcsZ5lqUkMk5vb5cmJdj64qRezW5bGobqm1Q00M-ZZ5_OxU1GrwcLz3SXA9JCfs1ExOZIDwLVuR_wb5y52QQLNebVskuoVwkvQA1Nq-yA6bv5XXfHl/s1600/IMG_2689.JPG" /></div>

The Amalienburg, the hunting cabin, is my personal favorite. Something about all those shades of blue, the dreamy wall paintings....I just love it all. <img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9VSkirfLWYBSS1GIf4K5VzX37aDnJjX6_QUWWQEJ98lp3Dev_CI6IcXOS9vJmvUNHn4qP-C5NA_eardu05aQ3fEbLM0lo-CDqtxs2vB9A6CEypG4Jo9af2nPtcpDBH5tB4m1V1yppxgie/s1600/IMG_2842.JPG" /></div>

This past holiday weekend our program headed to Vienna for a final group trip before we say goodbye to Germany and its convenient proximity to weekend destinations in about 2 months!<br />
<br />
I'm not sure whether it was the seemingly constant downpour of rain while we were there or if I've just gotten a little out my picture-taking groove since the new semester has started up, but my camera seemed to stay in my backpack for the majority of this trip. It did, however, make it out for our trip to the MuMok, Vienna's museum of modern art. <br />

I haven't always been a huge fan of modern art, but some of the classic Pop Art really floats my boat. The bright colors and clean lines really spark my interest and I love how they look against an all white wall.<br />

My camera got to see the light of day one more time before we headed back to Munich when we stopped at the Schönbrunn Palace, the Hapsburg's summer home, on our way out of the city, . It was the first time we saw even a glimpse of the sun in four days.<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBB615AzdcP9CCPdm_pTSIG23kxDPl1Bpo4sjzccFbb6Eg6lSoCov3e_fqhvBcARWrq2OjkKy9IKMOi4KzMPFgWv_0dAe9EDnS94vLAY0IwYA2ny81sG_jtk2YxKF2BM-xaMIA6wCnznw1/s1600/IMG_2630.jpg" /></div>

I've seen so much Baroque-era architecture this past year, I have to say that I've lost a little bit of interest in it. But I did love the massive green hedges, it was incredible how well groomed everything was! I especially love the look of a crisp white statue against the dark green.<br />

Back to Munich for a week or so and then off to Zurich with my lovely parents for my birthday weekend! Now I just have to find the time to make it to Amsterdam, Edinburgh, London again, the 100 other places I want to go.....when there's a will, there's a way?<br />

Another city, another gorgeous landscape that pretty much takes your breath away! After Belfast we spent a few days in Galway, a really lovely town on the west coast of Ireland. And we were once again presented with the opportunity to take a day trip to one of the few destination spots around the area, an opportunity which we could hardly say no to. We chose to take yet another day-long bus tour to the Cliffs of Moher, the likes of which you can spot in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and Princess Bride....of course I was going to have to see it for myself.</div>

I could hardly restrain myself from taking about 5,000 photos that day; it's hard not to when everywhere you turn is a beautiful shot. I'm obviously even worse at editing. I just couldn't pick my favorites! So prepare <i>again </i>for a bombardment of snapshots of all slightly-similar, but too-pretty-to-leave-out moments from our day.</div>

And so we come to the end of my travels from Spring Break 2015: The European Edition. I did in fact spend about a week in Dublin as well visiting a friend, but my camera seems to have been somewhat left out on that trip. I was really just enjoying the city and spending time with my friend and forgot all about the photos!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now that the bulk of my traveling is over for the foreseeable future, I'm interested to see what will happen with this blog! I hope to keep it going with other tales of my study-abroad ventures or maybe just some posts about the simpler things in life. I suppose we shall see! Stay tuned. </div>

While we were in Belfast, if there was any one thing we were going to do, it was Giant's Causeway. We were told by a fellow hostel dweller in Rome that it was absolutely fantastic and we had to see it...he refused to show us a picture because he claimed that Google images would rob us of the full experience of seeing it in person.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We signed up for a day-long bus tour through our hostel--</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
(Side note: our hostel was called Vagabonds and is the best hostel I've stayed at thus far, followed closely by Hostel of the Sun in Naples. Vagabonds is an award winning hostel and run by the loveliest staff of live-in adventurers and world travelers. I would highly recommend it if you're looking to stay in a chill place in Belfast.)</div>

--which left around 9:30 a.m. and returned to the city center at 6:30 p.m. We had a great day and saw some pretty gorgeous scenery: see the following 3,104 pictures...just kidding. But I took a lot of pictures. </div>

Our first day in Belfast we decided to check out the Titanic Quarter of
the city. If you didn't know, the Titanic was actually built in Belfast
and you can go as a tourist to the Harland and Wolff shipyard where it
was built. We spent the majority of the day just wandering around the area and seeing what there was to see!<br />

Of course it would have been lovely to have experienced a beach town during more of a beach season, but the weather didn't keep me from hanging out on the rocky beach for a little bit! (Read: about 15 minutes before I couldn't handle the wind anymore and left to find solace and warmth in a coffee shop).</div>

We stayed in a cute little hostel that was situated right across from the Royal Pavilion, which included a small green park where people were taking advantage of the off and on rays of sunshine. </div>

It was mostly two days of not doing much at all besides wandering around, reading, eating and drinking coffee--which was exactly what I needed! We found some of the best donuts I've had at a little kiosk on the pier (second only to the ones at the weekend market in Galway) and we spent an afternoon in the movie theater (again, escaping the cold) where we saw Big Hero 6. Now, I'm always a huge sucker for animated movies, but this one was especially good! I absolutely loved it and will be seeing it again sometime soon.<br />
<br />
I'd love to come back to Brighton in the nicer months to really get the full experience; the beach, the fair food and the amusement rides were all pretty tempting, but not <i>quite</i> tempting enough to face the wind for extended periods of time. I'm sure they'll get me next time!<br />

Our last day in London graced us with beautiful sunny weather, which I always think calls for brunch. (To be fair, I think every single day under any weather circumstances calls for brunch). We headed to Tom's Cafe in Notting Hill, which I've heard about from a few different London bloggers. And we weren't disappointed!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The atmosphere was absolutely adorable and I would go back in a heartbeat, except that we learned that Tom's is sadly due to close within the next week! Definitely a shame, as the food was also pretty delicious.</div>

Sometimes I just want to live in a flower shop. I always want to buy flowers but neither hostel rooms nor dorm rooms seem a worthy enough setting for a vase of flowers.<br />

We spent the rest of the afternoon in the Kew Botanical Gardens, which was big enough to spend a full day in. The air started to get a little chilly once the sun started going down, but it was so pleasant to see some flowers growing and it gave me hope for the arrival of spring in the near future.<br />

All in all, it was a great last day in the London area. I always held London for that special city that I needed to go to, and it didn't disappoint. I think it's safe to say I'll be back soon.

As the true tourist that I am, I made sure to make time for a trip on the London Eye. There's not too much about the experience that needs too much explaining, so I'll just let the photos speak for themselves!</div>

After the London Eye I had planned to head back to Notting Hill to explore some more of the side streets, but there was some sort of problem with the Underground so I ended up just walking in the direction of Notting Hill and happening upon Holland Park in the Kensington area. The park was so beautiful and well kept that I honestly felt that maybe I wasn't supposed to be there, or was supposed to have paid for entry. It's known for being a very affluent area, but wow!

Not a waterfowl, but still a fowl nonetheless. I was completely flabbergasted to see this guy just walking around, as was the kid in the background who ran up screaming "Mr. Peacock, Mr. Peacock!!" I had no idea that peacocks just wandered around in residential areas like that.<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGyp0I-1F9eHJSKvcKUTDpiVQGY0jS9aIfNbZIj1NsG18x0L9X18XjO24X9y7-0C2cCcBUc8Qf1SGFfhouDGusFBGtrDLUvMyMwkUy1cf5i7b5MnK5lHNbxGwJB7EqsjL82SAM_WSSXhk2/s1600/IMG_2065.JPG" height="426" width="640" /></div>

We watched it, well, a lot. So of course I was pretty excited to check it out for myself. Elizabeth and I actually made appointments to get our hair done at Taylor Taylor salon on Portobello Road (the main drag in Notting Hill), so that was a good excuse to explore the rest of the neighborhood a little bit. Unfortunately, without a map or cell service, I did not successfully locate the famous The Blue Door from the movie....oh well. Next time!!</div>

We stopped into the Tate Modern museum our first full day in London. It seems a little silly or perhaps even slightly plagiarist to make a whole post about the art we saw there, but I just thought I'd share some of the things I enjoyed most.

I've found that shops in modern art museums are always the most fun to walk around in. I was pretty tempted by some punny tote bags and gorgeous books (picture books for adults, as I like to think of them), but managed to escape without buying anything.</div>

Up until this point, this blog has mainly been a platform for me to show pretty pictures of my travels and to keep friends and family updated with my whereabouts. Now, that's all good and fine, but I really want this to be a place where I can share my thoughts about things that I really care about. I think I tend to come across as a quiet, polite, and maybe even indifferent individual. And while I'm all about being laid back and generally unoffensive, please don't mistake that for weak willed or passive in any way. Part of my quietness comes from the fact that I'm in my own head a lot of the time. I observe and I think about things...<i>a lot</i>. And as I've gotten older I've really realized how much of a strength that is for me personally. I'm able to pretty consistently think introspectively about myself and see how my personality traits and life views play out in my day to day life. That also means that I'm always able to see where there's room for improvement. And that doesn't mean forcing myself to be different in any way that feels like a betrayal to who I am as a person, but actually that each day I can actively come closer and closer to the person I'm really supposed to be; the best version of myself. And how exciting is that? There's nothing standing in the way of me becoming a nicer person, a stronger person, a more intelligent person, a <i>better</i> person. Life is good.<br />
<br />
Today is International Women's Day. A day to appreciate women: their strength, their beauty, their intelligence, their everything. As I was scrolling through my Instagram feed today, I came across a post from the always stunning beauty and fashion blogger Samantha Maria, of the picture above with the following caption:<br />
<i>Feminist: a person who believes in the social, political and economic equality of the sexes.</i><br />
(Sammi's instagram: <a href="https://instagram.com/thebeautycrush/">https://instagram.com/thebeautycrush/</a>)<i> </i><br />
I love Beyonce as much as the next person, and have listened to "Flawless" so many times its almost embarassing....except not at all because, well, its Beyonce. Duh. But seriously, I have so much respect for this song and especially the incorporation of Chimamanda Adichie's Ted Talk "We Should All Be Feminists." If you haven't seen that video, I highly recommend checking it out.<br />
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hg3umXU_qWc">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hg3umXU_qWc</a><br />
<br />
If you had asked me even as recent as about a year ago if I was feminist, I probably would have said "Eh....yeahhh" with some kind of a noncommittal "so-so" hand gesture. I realize now how ridiculous that is and I also realize that I'm not the only woman who's been reluctant to identify as a feminist simply because she's afraid of the assumptions people might make about her if she did. And how sad is that?<br />
I truly think I'm blessed to be alive during a time when there's such a strong movement towards gender equality and women's empowerment. There's so much literature to be read, so many discussions to be had and so much love to be shared around the topic of feminism. It really is, in a word, empowering. <br />

Today, I'm happy to say that I am a feminist. Let's all be feminists.<br />
Peace and love to all the strong and beautiful women that have shown up in my life. You all inspire me to continue working towards that best version of myself.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08685793317589656795noreply@blogger.com2
