4th of July – mid-week holiday!

California – We Miss You

Well well well. Javi and I just got back from California and I’m pining the loss of 65 degree weather.

Happy anniversary Tara and Jorge!

Back in January I posted about my incredible study abroad experience in Santiago de Compostela in 2006. Aside from that one 6-month trip I’ve been back to Santiago de Compostela twice – once for two months in the summer of 2007 to visit friends and do the Camino for my senior thesis and again in…
