This post is a bit of a #latergram, since it's about a trip from over a week ago, but I've been too lazy to write until now. Este post es un poquito de #latergram porque es sobre un viaje desde hace una semana, pero he estado perezosa y no lo escribí hasta ahora. Last weekend, … Continue reading Una escapadita perfecta

Just Cultural Things
I am closing in on the end of my second year in Costa Rica, and I definitely think I am much more adjusted this year than I was last. Before I moved, I never really thought the States had all that much of a "culture," but I don't think I ever actually understood what that … Continue reading Just Cultural Things
¿Casi Tica?
Hola! It's been a while! Life has been good (and busy), but I clearly haven't been taking the time to blog much these days. As I've said before, that's pretty much because even the adventures just feel like part of life now. And while I know I have a loooong way to go before I … Continue reading ¿Casi Tica?

It's a pretty ginormous volcano located in the province of Cartago, which is … Continue reading Doodle-Bug’s Big Day
Catching up by way of a photo blog post
Hola! It's definitely been a while! I keep doing things and saying, "Imma blog about this," but then I don't blog. That's a good thing, trust me. The less I blog, the more adjusted I feel! However, I still wanted to share a bit about what I've been up to, for those of you who … Continue reading Catching up by way of a photo blog post
Adjustments
5 Marzo 2016 ¡Hola! It's been quite some time since I last posted! But you know what they say...no news is good news! I think the less I post, the more I feel like I'm living a normal life instead of being on some surreal adventure that always has me on edge. Ever since I … Continue reading Adjustments
Sámara with my Mámara (sorry, worst pun ever!)
¡Buenas! Long time no write! And WordPress wasn't hesitant to remind me, either. When I logged on and saw that there is now a graph telling me exactly how much I've been slacking, I was just like OH COME ON, WORDPRESS! Thanks for making me feel guilty! Some upgrade! I AM SO MAD RIGHT NOW … Continue reading Sámara with my Mámara (sorry, worst pun ever!)
