Wear It Wednesday | Thunderpants USA
**Full disclosure: Thunderpants USA sent me these undies free of charge to review and share with my followers. The following is my honest opinion.** In the world of ethically made and sustainable apparel, it seems basics and undergarments are nearly always tossed by the wayside. My biggest issue is splurging on these items because honestly, [...]
Easter Reflection | 2017
I've had a tough week, seriously, I'm in desperate need of resurrection Sunday. When we visited Israel in 2011, we visited the Church of Agony & I know I mention this story every Easter related post but that's because it really means THAT much to mean and putting that experience into words is way way harder [...]
In a World with Terrorism, Why I still Travel | part 3 – Adventure
Yes, you can totally have an adventurous experience in the lower 48, there are plenty of cultures to experience, people to meet, food to eat, and traditions to witness. In fact, our country is so large it would probably be nearly impossible for someone to do it all in the US alone, let alone experience [...]
In a World with Terrorism, Why I still Travel | part 2- Love
POP POP POP Laying in bed with the windows open my heart was unsettled. Police were storming the Bataclan while I laid in bed.

Where do I begin? At the beginning of course...it's November 13, 2015: 9:30 pm Central European Time... We were standing on top of the world. Not really but the top of the Arc du Triumph is awfully close. The world seemed so serene, innocent from that height, looking down the Champees Elysees toward the Eiffel tower for [...]
Recalling Greece 2012 {Corinth}
Our last visit in Greece was off to Corinth, ancient Corinth was again a few miles from the modern city, which was down closer to the sea. At this point in the trip, I was truly miserable but at the same time I had a wonderful time. We didn't take many photos here but the [...]
Recalling Greece 2012 {Athens}
Finally, the big attraction. Athens, really who goes to Greece without doing the Acropolis, Mars Hill and a little wondering around! We started our day in Athens by visiting Mars Hill, which over looks Athens and is near level with the mount on which the Parthenon is built. Following Mars Hill we joined the masses [...]
Recalling Greece 2012 {Delphi}
After Berea, we left Central Greece and headed to Delphi, also known to the locals as the birthplace of the world. There was no biblical significance to Delphi except to better understand the ancient Greek culture. Delphi is situated in a mountain pass, close to the sky and therefore closer to the gods. Apparently before [...]
Recalling Greece 2012 {Berea & Varleem}
Today, we left Thessaloniki and headed into Central Greece and went up to Berea (Acts 17:10-15). There we saw a monument built for Paul and since we had been in the bus for a while we stopped for a cup of coffee and baklava because baklava. 😉 After Berea, we went to Varleem to see [...]
