Port of Patras


When I buy my sailboat, this is where it will live.
This is where I will eat when I get sick of eating in the boat.

I have been in Greece for 5 days and have yet to eat a single meal indoors. :)

Gorgeous! I cannot wait to see this with Andrew one day (he wants to go to Italy and I want to see Greece because I already spent 2 weeks in Italy which was just fantastic by the way..)

Well they are definitely easy to combine into one trip! Any "must sees" for Italy, Timi? (Also, let me know if either of you get facebook accounts-I have tons more pictures on facebook!) :)

NO, we do not have Facebook accounts.. So we just have to check your blog or maybe you can send us a link to your FB pics?!
Oh, there is sooo much to see in Italy... I don`t know where are you headed (which city) but in Rome, you need to see the Forum Romanum (the very old Rome) and the Victor Emanuel memorial (big, white building like). They are incredible! And of course, the Fontana of Trevi (fountain) and try some Italian pizza! It is the very best for sure! I hope you get to see Venice as well, it is truly beautiful and breathtaking! Florence is also great, so much to see there too! Statue of David, Medici Library and so on... OH, I feel like I am 16 yrs old again!

Selamat Datang di Indonesia

Image
OK, I've actually been in Indonesia for almost a year. But it's been so pandemic-y I haven't felt like I've had a lot to share-and what I DO have to share ends up on social media. Maybe a blog is overkill. But I like words.  So here I am! Teaching internationally in Jakarta, Indonesia. I don't want to type an ALL ABOUT TEACHING INTERNATIONALLY IN INDONESIA post, but instead observations, snippets, funny moments, travel, and maybe (occasional) frustrations. Join me! OBSERVATION #1: Dogs in Indonesia Anyone who knows me, knows that Sweet Abby is my constant sidekick (except that one time when we were separated for over 6 months because she couldn't get out of the US). But, due to culture, religion, and just plain old lack of experience, Indonesians are generally wary of dogs. This can range from downright terrified to suspicious to curious to completely friendly. On top of that, the majority of dogs in Jakarta are miniature-sized so a golden retriever is relativel...

Raja Ampat Part 4: Fam Islands

Image
 No trip to Raja Ampat is complete without visiting the picturesque Fam Islands. Pictures don't do them justice, but here are a bunch of pictures anyway! First we went to the main Fam Islands hike. It was short and steep and breathtaking in more ways than one!  See the islands on the left of the 100000 rupiah note? They should look familiar! We also hiked up to the Star Lagoon. This was a much steeper scramble, not recommended for the unsteady, the flip-flop wearers, or those with a fear of heights.

Bolivia (part 5): The World's Most Dangerous Road

Image
The "Camino de la Muerte" or Death Road is another touristy highlight in Bolivia. It's a bike ride, about 40 km, all downhill, where you lose a stunning 11,800 feet in altitude from the top to the bottom! For my friends not using the metric system, thats from 15,400 feet to 3,600. (Metric: from 4700 to 1200 meters) Fortunately, the road that is infamous for deadly accidents is a lot less deadly today. Mostly because another much safer road has been built-so the only traffic on the road now consists of mostly cyclists and the vans that transport them, with perhaps the odd tourist. However, in the past, the narrow, dirt road with blind corners required big buses to back up to find wide enough spots to pass one another-which all too often ended up in buses backing off the sheer side of the mountain. Again, choosing a reputable company seems important when your life is on the line (we used Gravity bike tours). They supply you with a bike, a suit to wear over your clothes for ...
