Beginnings...

I am not much for writing online because I enjoy the feel of the pen as it smoothly travels across paper (when it comes to journaling), but I am open to new things. New experiences. This summer I travel across the Atlantic to see and find new things opening my eyes to culture once again. My goal this summer is not holding back, to experience new things and meet fantastic people. I am sure I will find myself lost at one point or another (as in finding myself in a different place without direction), but sometimes those are the greatest moments. The ones you look back on and remember as shots of brilliance.

A couple years ago, I traveled abroad to play field hockey at an international level. I was able to visit England, Belgium and Holland for a couple weeks learning everything from drag flicks (a field hockey trick) to which chocolate shops to avoid. Ever since then I have dreamed of going back to Europe and experiencing its uniqueness. This time I will be in Italy where the men are not shy (so I've heard). Looking forward to this amazing experience, while updating this blog along the way!
