  • The Tale of Tignes

    The Tale of Tignes

    It was worth a full day of travel on either end to have two amazing days of snowboarding in the French Alps.  With a flight into Geneva and a full day of riding the bus up to the resort, we busied ourselves with podcasts, naps, and the Heads Up app.  Our hotel, Le Paquis, was…

    Κανόνες Αθηνών! Athens, Greece

    “Nonfiction is the Real Thing!” This motto was the big posted tagline in the back of my classroom at Infinity (shoutout to Allison!), and I felt like I was living ‘the real thing’ being in Athens as we were experiencing the ‘topography, vegetation, and water’ of this ancient city.  I was excited to see the Acropolis up…

    Khaaaa! Bangkok, Thailand

    05Jan2017 Being in a metropolis like Bangkok was strangely comforting, like the buzzing feeling I get when I return to NYC after a long trip away.  The city welcomed us with lights, traffic, Uber, cocktails, rooftops, and shopping malls- all things that I thought would be a turn off after being in such small towns…

    Same Same but Different in Chiang Mai, Thailand

    03Jan2017 When I look back, I think that Chaing Mai was the stop on our trip when we lost a bit of steam.  We didn’t map out an itinerary as we’d done in previous cities, but this was probably just what we needed at this point.
