around the world in ninety days.

as most of you know my au pair experience was quite the bust. so much that after one week of work it could be qualified as my dirtiest job. some would say, i turned lemons into lemonade and decided to take advantage of being in europe (much to my wallet's dismay) and traveled. traveling mostly consisted of bumming off of a few european contacts (thanks casey!) while visiting and revisiting several european cities. i met a lot of crazies, both good and bad. i started a list of everywhere i went and the people i met. all good things must come to an end and as of november 4th i have been stateside. i popped into dc and nyc to visit a few people and postpone home for an additional week and a half. now i am back in good ole sc. it's not terrible, yet. however, i find myself faced with the inevitable what next and it is now time to retackle the portfolio. life suggestions welcome.

here's a little itinterary of the past 3 months (yes i'm counting airports where i had layovers):

i'm hoping to make some sort of project or something slightly tangible from this experience. hopefully more to come soon-ish.

thank the travel deities!


new terminal T1 complete to further service that modest little coastal community of Barcelona. many of us remember the familiar slipping-on-the-floor/space-frame-bonanza/triangularly-jutting-terminals of the older Prat airport. however, thanks to a nice catalan postmodernist architect's vision, we can land and happily disembark via a silver-clad millennium falcon of a terminal.  ¡que todo me vaya bien cuando aterrizo en esa terminal tan desconocida! ¿ya habrĂ¡n ampliado el metro para que llegue hasta la ciudad?... o por lo menos sants. jeje.
