Florence II: Elevated Spirit
I started the day with a little foray in San Lorenzo Market. On the walk there I unknowingly deviated from the path the map was taking me through but I only realized it once I saw that I was closing in on the Duomo. I turned off maps and considered just scrapping the San Lorenzo…

Cagnes-sur-Mer & Menton
Cagnes-sur-Mer I visited Musée Renoir today and the grounds are beautiful. It makes me want to move to the South of France and buy a villa. As I was standing on the second floor balcony, I looked to the right and in the distance, high above, was my next destination. I walked from Renoir’s house…

Nice Again: Promenade & MAMAC
Back in Nice! I arrived in Nice this morning and I’m staying with V. It was so awesome seeing her and catching up with her. The first order of business was breakfast, which I enjoyed on her lovely balcony, while we chatted about everything. My heart was so filled with joy. I’d really missed her.…

A World of Wonder

Cave Fail + New Girl in Town
Today I met Brandon and Sarena at Place Garibaldi to go visit La Crypte and the line was pretty long. I left the line to search for water, came back with a slushee, and I found Stacia in line talking to Brandon. She and her host mom’s visiting nephew were going to some cave and asked…

Monaco I
Today I woke up and read a bit. I didn’t really want to do anything so I went online and then saw a couple of people wanted to go to Monaco and I thought, “Why not?”. We met up two hours later and took bus 100. When we got to Monte Carlo we headed to…

Fun on Île Saint Honorat
We took a boat to Île Saint Honorat where we walked through wooded pathways and open fields to get to the ancient church/monastery. The view from the top was great and there was something mystical about the well right by the entrance. I noticed a guy down below taking a picture of the rooftop where…
