I don’t remember much of it since I was there about 15 years ago and yet I’m sure that’s where I want to go the week of my birthday. I just resent how hard it is to find a travel partner. There are worse things in the world than giving [...]
In March, I want to go back to London. It’s been over four years since I was in the UK last. For a while, I was going practically every year. What’s happened since is I’ve rediscovered Italy, the British pound costs too much, and I wanted to “broaden my horizons”. I can’t stay away for [...]
