Summer '05
After an amazing thirty-five days in Europe I arrived back home about a week ago. I'm not going to lie to you; it feels horrible to be back. I don't wake up everyday with the excitement of knowing I'll go cliff jumping, or be zipping around an island on a scooter. The local cuisine is, needless to say, much more tame. And the history in this city or even this country is about as old as a comic book. I think I could go on like this for sometime, complaining about this cities relative inadequacies, but I brought one thing back with me that makes everything a lot easier to deal with---actually she was here before I left. Traveling Europe with Lauren was a blast, and I enjoyed all of the amazing sites so much more being able to share them with her. And though being back home sucks its easy to reminisce with her about the places we've been.
More than reminiscing about the places we've been, we dream about the places we will go. This trip has strengthened an already strong relationship, and I've never felt so close to anyone in my life. The possibilities seem endless. And even though I'm looking at another couple years of school, while working to save up some money, it won't be long before we're back on the road/in a plane. We're actually looking to start up a travel photography company. Lauren has a keen eye for great photographs, and I don't mind setting up the tripod and checking the settings for exposure.
There should definitely be more pictures to come. We need to edit a lot of them yet, which is difficult to do on iBooks, but Lauren's looking at getting a 20' iMac and then we should be in good shape to get out some great looking photos. Besides photos, hopfully I'll be posting on here a lot more. I know I keep saying that, and that this blogs glory days were definitely in the beginning (a year ago already!!!) but I love writing and just need to work on getting the garbage out there. I let myself get frustrated so easily and it seems like my thoughts simply refuse to be written out. But I'll keep trying. Stay tuned.
