About M.E.

Vroom, Vroom

Some people like to buy boats and others like to talk their way onto one in France around 2 a.m. (that would be ME). I've always loved to travel, to meet new people, to learn about other places (and cause a little mischief). In 2009, I moved to Italy for grad school and fell in love with an Italian man and his majestic chest hair. I also fell a lot, literally, because cobblestones. It's not always easy but it's worth it. This isn't a traditional travel blog. This is a travel story, an honest account of my adventures, the happy moments, the spilled wine, missed flights, cultural misunderstandings and everything in between.
