I wake up just as I do on any other day. After some (quick) causal scrolling through social media I crawl out of bed (or rather climb since I’m in a bunk at this flat) and make my way immediately to the bathroom where I use the toilet, and put my hair up and out … More My Dental Emergency in Italy
Sunrise is very symbolic; often meaning a new beginning, a fresh start. It’s very fitting for where I am at in my life at the moment, applying to jobs that will be the first steps in my career. At this moment, the sun has not yet risen over the horizon, not quite. Instead, it is … More Sunrise… a New Beginning – A Weekly Photo Challenge
Conveying a story in photo is very difficult especially for those like me who tend to take photos of the surrounding city as opposed to myself (selfies don’t count here haha). But after scrolling back a few months I remembered this photo my friend took of me and thought how well it conveyed a sense … More “Story” – A Weekly Photo Challenge
Hey guys, I’m back with a vlog and I’m pretty darn proud of it if I do say so myself. I’ve decided to make it a goal to do a YouTube video once a week (probably on Mondays) since I’ve really been missing video editing every day. I thought I would kick this goal off … More A Week in my Life | Milan Fashion Week Edition
Now that I have officially left Germany, I think it’s probably the appropriate time to share some of my final thoughts and impressions of the country, starting first with their language. Why German? In terms of American exposures to foreign languages, my relationship with German is relatively extensive. I began studying it when I transferred … More My Troubled Relationship with the German Language
Every break, every holiday, it seems like every week, someone would assume, “but you’re going back home right?” I never really knew how to answer their questions because I myself didn’t know the answer. While it might not have been the best response, my standard reply was always that plane tickets cost a lot of … More What it’s Like to Visit Home after Nearly 2 Years of Travel
After having already worked a fourth of my life, it has been so refreshing to finally be doing something I actually enjoy. Ever since I moved out at the age of 18, I have been working shitty retail jobs to get by. While I really value those experiences for what they taught me and for … More Saying Goodbye to Frankfurt School; my Working Video Portfolio
I’ve been hinting at this huge news for the last couple weeks and if you follow me on any of my social media you probably already know this, but I’m moving to Italy in February! Why you might ask? Just like my previous hop across the world, the answer is education. I have secured a position … More I’m Moving to Italy!
I’ve gotten a lot of questions like, “why Germany?” or “how’d you get here?” during my time studying in Frankfurt. It’s a pretty straightforward story that, on the surface, perhaps lacks some magical feeling of destiny or magic but I think that once people get to know me and where I’m from, they start to … More Small-Town USA to City Life in Germany; How it Happened
So I have taken this Weekly Photo Challenge as an opportunity to let you all get to know me a bit more. Many of you might be surprised to know (especially if you are not from my home town) that I was pretty much a bonafide cowboy in High School. Want proof? Look below. To … More The Time I was a Rodeo Queen and got Chased by a Bull
