Assisi
Assisi. I thought Lourdes was peaceful, Assisi IS peaceful. Even with all the tourists, and there weren’t as many as I was expecting. Of course, we filled almost 3 hotels in Assisi with 250+ people so we took up a majority or the tourists, maybe that’s why? The Churches, the shrines, the sunsets, the tourist… Continue reading Assisi
Rome, Italy
Rome. Rome. Rome. How my cousin lived in this city for an entire semester is beyond me. I was so over-stimulated and ready to find a secluded lake, after just 2 days!! Despite my brain being almost unable to absorb anything else after day 2, it was an absolute trip of a lifetime and if… Continue reading Rome, Italy
Rome & Assisi
Two cities, two different paces of life, two different cultures, two different types of scenery, gelato, Italian pasta, Catholic Churches, shrines, hills, hikes, security, souvenir shops, museums, and so much more. Those words can’t even begin to start summarizing what Rome and Assisi were together and separate. This will be a joint post, but there… Continue reading Rome & Assisi
Sometimes It’s the Not So Little Things
I wrote my last official paper of my undergrad career last Thursday. It was probably one of the toughest papers I’ve ever had to write. It was a philosophy paper that could only be 1000 words. I know, I know, 1000 words, that’s nothing. But it depends on the topic. If philosophy is your cup… Continue reading Sometimes It’s the Not So Little Things
Lourdes, France
Mama Mary; Family; Baths of Lourdes; Miracles; Night Rosary Processions; Travel; Service; Pilgrims - these are some of the very few words I can use to start to describe mission. It feels nearly impossible to find the right words to describe these 10 days. Any words I do manage to use are consistently inadequate in… Continue reading Lourdes, France
9.27.18 – 10.01.18
Poland heard my ugly cry. Poland heard my joyful laughter. Poland gave me heart palpitations and got me a little loopy. Poland is coming back to family in souvenirs touched to relics. Poland brought my heart back to Mary. Poland helped prepare my heart for the next journey I take in life. Poland is calling… Continue reading 9.27.18 – 10.01.18
Gaming Tidbits
Here is a little bit about what I have done with some of my days, or things I've heard while here... 1. In my culture class, we are learning about Austria as a country, our professor told us this quote and I just cracked up: In Heaven - British are the police, the chefs are… Continue reading Gaming Tidbits
Vienna, Austria
Guten Morgen, Guten Tag, or Guten Aben! Good morning, good afternoon, or good evening (depending on when you read this). These are typical greetings in German. I've learned some phrases from my culture class. Fun note - learned how to to Austrian Folk Dancing with this class (for free). They love coming to campus and… Continue reading Vienna, Austria
Salzburg – September 1, 2018
Those who know me, know that I struggle with making sure I get pictures of places I go and things I see. Well, lucky for y'all, I've been working on that. You're welcome. Though, most of the photos are landscape photos, some have really amazing buildings in them, but Austria doesn't allow photos of a… Continue reading Salzburg – September 1, 2018
