We just returned from a much-needed escape from the “Frankfurt grey” to Malta for some sun and milder temperatures. While it certainly wasn’t swimming weather, we enjoyed 50 and 60-degree weather, sunny skies, and felt recharged enough to return to the cold and grey climate of Frankfurt. We arrived early afternoon Saturday and departed early … More The Maltese Falcon (really, there were falcons in Malta)
Here it is. The very exciting list of “Stuff I Want to See and Do in 2019.” I’m not particularly set on accomplishing all of this in a year…viewing this more as an inspiration list! Places to See It can be overwhelming to live somewhere as central as Frankfurt, so I am hoping this will … More The Bucket List: 2019 Edition
December was a month of two things: exciting adventures and exhaustion. Our friend Mike came to visit before we came home for the holidays and when I say we saw a lot, I mean we saw A LOT. Here are some highlights of our December travels: Christmas Markets – here are the ones I’ve been … More December: Christmas Markets and Switzerland

Here are some things I have been mulling over on long walks over the last few … More Breathing deeply. Work. Other things.
We are just shy of thirty days of living here – minus my five day jaunt back to D.C. for a wedding – I can’t believe how fast the time has gone. It is very nice to finally be in our place after a total of thirty days of hotel living even if we don’t … More The first month.
So we live in Frankfurt now? It is strange to say. Since we are in a hotel for a few weeks until our apartment is ready, it really feels more like a long trip here than anything else. Thankfully the flight and transition into the hotel went quite smoothly and we are able to catch … More The first few days
Well, it’s finally here. After months of planning, we are finally moving our lives to Frankfurt in just over a week. The last few weeks in particular have been incredibly emotionally, physically, and mentally draining.
