Hot showers. Being able to throw your toilet paper in the toilet. The beach. Potato chips. Strangers who smile and say “Hi!” Fresh fruit. Coffee. Warm cozy blankets. Random conversations with 22 year old boys who actually seem really grown up. Supportive and helpful friends. Giant burritos. Full out belly-laughing. Sunny days-even when it’s cold. Free WIFI. Hippies. Journals. The first black President. Flip flops. Love. Driving with bare feet.
Hold the door open for someone the next time you walk in a door anywhere. Wait to hold it open for a few extra seconds if a stranger is several steps away, especially if it’s really early in the morning, or cold, even when you’re running really late going in to grab your coffee on the way to work.
…listen.
Vanilla Ice’s real name is Robert Matthew Van Winkle
Word to ur mother.
Throw that out at your next cocktail party. You’ll be so cool.
You have changed and saved my life.
Period.
You will see.
Muchas muchas gracias.
I have just read that apparently only 28% of Americans have a passport. Yikes.
What a great gift idea the next time you’re stumped. What else could you buy someone that could give them endless opportunity for exploration and last for 10 years? Not to mention under a hundred bucks. Try to find a deal like that at your local Crate and Barrel.
Yes, I know that all of us aren’t jet-setters and some people could care less about traveling. (That’s OK) -but get yourself a passport anyway. Those random situations or bargin trips pop up sometimes when you could just use a little break and room to breathe.
You don’t want to be that person stuck working your vacation week when your pals are off surfing in Australia, having a Guiness with a random Irishman, or shopping in Paris.
Argentina is my new favorite place to stay in January. Best pizza I have ever had. Until I get the pix up- just imagine the deliciousness and drool…
Wishes for today:
1.) Buy a little casa in San Lorenzo
2.) Steal those pizza recipes and bring them back to the states. (Who knew the pizza would rival all others here? Steak?! Nah-I’ll take the pizza.)
3.) I’ll leave this one to the imagination
