Week in Photos: Bye Bye, Summer

I feel like every post I’ve drafted this weekend starts off by saying that summer is over, and how sad I am.  But I am sad and summer is over, so sue me!  I did just have an amazing weekend on the Cape with my family, though, so hopefully that will tide me over at least […]

Week(end) in Photos: Vacation Diary, Part 2

I am sad, guys.  I am sitting here with a massive bowl of soggy cereal, looking up my course book lists.  Vacation is over.  Nine beautiful days on the Cape, and we are home again.  At least the weather was terrible today, so we didn’t feel like the Cape was mocking us for leaving.  I’ll […]

Week in Photos: Mostly Food

I hope everyone had a good weekend!  I had a totally exhausting week; it is so hard to walk around on a boot cast!  None of my shoes are the same height as the boot, so after about a day, my back was all uneven, which is super uncomfortable.  You know, in addition to the […]

Looking Forward: A Love Letter to Boston

Less than a week left in Israel, and less than two weeks until Boston.  Oh, Boston.  My city, my home, my heart.  If you’ve read my first few posts on this blog, you know how I feel about my hometown.  I dedicated the first ever post to my city after the bombing, and how proud […]

Final Countdown

As of today, I have three weeks left in Israel.  I can’t decide if I’m more devastated to leave, or thrilled to come home.  I find the promise of family, friends, holiday cheer, and my own car and bed to be very alluring, but I can’t imagine leaving the people I’ve come to love here […]

Into November

It’s true what they say, time flies when you’re having fun.  A few hiccups aside, I am beyond happy here, and dreading it all ending.  That being said, here are a few photos post-North Trip through Halloween and the past week or so… Breakfast for dinner obviously means mimosas. Enjoying beach weekends… thank god for […]

Weekly Wonderful: Mountains and More

So far, things are pretty great here.  My classes are interesting, I’ve made some great friends, and have been taking advantage of everything Tel Aviv has to offer.  But this isn’t a Tel Aviv post.  Last weekend, my program took us on a trip to northern Israel.  It was so nice to be back in […]

Weekly Wonderful: Welcome to Tel Aviv

First week in Tel Aviv, first week at a new university… Obviously I have a lot to say.  And I will say it.  And you can feel free to read it, or not.  But for the visual people who don’t want to peruse my ramblings, here’s a photo post about my first week in Tel […]

The Land of Milk and Honey

Hi from Israel!  This is my first post in over two weeks, but only because it’s been a crazy, transcontinental, time-shifting two weeks.  The Sunday before last, I boarded a plane to London, had breakfast in London, and then boarded another plane to Tel Aviv only an hour later.  Three continents in twenty-four hours.  It […]

Weekly Wonderfuls

It’s my last week in Boston… oh my god.  I am not even close to being packed, having started watching Parenthood yesterday.  I now have a half-empty suitcase and a full-on obsession with the Braverman family.  Anyway, here’s a photographic/link-o-graphic (my new made-up word) recap of my week… I can’t stand the music video for Miley […]
