I like your attitude. Since I started my blog long before we actually left for post, it made me appreciate “normal” life in DC more. Having grown up in Northern Va. and then living in DC post-college, I definitely took for granted all the museums, parks, restaurants and other places since I felt like they were always around — I could go any day! So in those final months I tried to get out and about and see places where I’d only gone on an elementary school field trip. Also, I ate a lot.

Thank you for the comment, queenie! That’s so funny that you ahve been reminiscing about blogging from Bk. Although, I can see how it would be difficult, blogging while travelling is not an easy thing! Speaking of which, I have been checking in on your travels every now and again, and it looks amazing. So happy you’re blogging through it. Thailand is my favorite place in the world (as of now). Get a massage or two for me, please!

Love this! It’s so true, Jessie. Even though I’ve been traveling for a month and a half now, I’m on the opposite end of the spectrum thinking about how I loved my blog posts when I was simply at home in Brooklyn (and unemployed) which were more about getting in tune with my spirituality vs. about my current travel experiences. I have a few blog posts I’ve written getting back to what I love to write about most, but it’s hard to find the right time to post them when I feel like people want to hear about our travels. I met some ex-pat bloggers today and just talking to them reminded me that it’s so important to always share whatever you’re thinking/feeling so I’ll be sharing those posts soon. Have so much fun in New Orleans! D told me she’ll be spending Thanksgiving there. Share lots of pics of your holiday meal too, sounds incredible!
