About Me

For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel’s sake. The great affair is to move. The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page. My world is the never-ending story and I expect to continue reading as long as I breathe!

Woke up next to a gorgeous woman... how many of you can say the same?

My flight from BCN ended up being two hours late, leaving my friend waiting for me at the bus station for 3 hours with no news from me. When my airport shuttle finally pulled up to the bus station, I could see her through the window and she ran up to the bus door, which the driver was mean enough not to open. I was jumping up and down with excitement. When the door finally opened, we had one of those incredibly cheesy and oh-so gratifying hugs where we almost fell over because of the weight of my bag and the momentum of my hug. Good times.

We walked back to her house (which is gorgeous!) and popped a bottle of bubbly I had bought to celebrate everything we had missed. She cooked an amazing dinner as we both talked non-stop, trying to fill each other in on our respective lives from the past 3 months. My smile has yet to stop touching my ears.

Today we hiked up one Bristol's many hills to go watch a good ol' football game. I seem to have brought the sun to this cloudy island. We of course brought hot toddys with us so that we could enjoy the game a little better.

J has planned a dinner party to welcome me to Bristol and invited some mutual friends and a few new ones. Should be a good time.

Tomorrow, we plan on surprising A, a good friend of the family's/family/friend/incredible woman.

Cheerio!
