I leave South Penquite Farm in two days. My time in Bodmin Moor just flew by.. Practically because I’ve found that living on a farm in the middle of nowhere, the days became quite repetitive. But I truly enjoy this peaceful solitude in the heart of nature. I’ve found myself hiking to the same spot every evening to watch the sunset. It’s a beautiful spot on the corner of my host’s property, just at the crest of a hill overlooking…
I’ve been traveling for almost three months now… Three months! It’s only felt like a few weeks to be honest. It isn’t until I begin to feel the seasons change that I realize it.. When I first arrived it was 100°F daily and I barely wore a thing, now it gets down to the 40°F’s and I never leave the house without a jacket and scarf. Three months… Then once it hits you, what felt like was last week ends…
What a wonderful week it’s been in Sussex. We’ve spent the past week with our lovely Workaway hosts, Charmaine and Ian, in their cozy home in Wadhurst. They have a charming cottage in a small village countryside, deep in High Weald Natural Park. Charmaine and Ian are such a sweet, inviting couple and I really enjoyed their hospitality and company this week. The work was very simple, if there was any work to do anyways. Rather I think they enjoyed…
Tonight I sleep at the Milan Malpensa airport, awaiting a 7:10am flight to London. Yep… A lot has happened within the past few days. My parents are traveling to London soon and I plan to meet them there, but I’ve decided to go a week earlier because… well honestly I just want a little change. I know I know, that sounds a little odd coming from someone who’s traveling, where every day is different. But as adventurous as Sardinia is, it has…
Current location: Poetto Beach in Quartu Sant’Elena with a bottle of white wine, a stick of incense, and Bob Marley playing from my iPhone. I’ve been in Cagliari for three days now. A little stressful in the beginning as I don’t really know exactly what I’m doing here… However now it seems like everything is coming together, slowly but properly. I spent my first night in a hostel in the marina of Cagliari. The city truly is a gem. This whole island…
And just like that, it’s over… Having worked in a hostel for the past two & a half weeks with new travelers arriving every day and leaving the next, you become pretty accustomed and quite good at saying goodbye. But nothing prepared me for my own… The past few weeks have honestly been my favorite during the almost two months in Italy. I met the most incredible people, all walks of life from all corners of the world; listened to…
