Finding My Fix: Chronicles of a Travel Junkie

Yesterday I hosted Thanksgiving for the first time, and I cooked a turkey and stuffing for the first time. It was edible. Among the people at this Thanksgiving in October were 3 Germans, 2 Swedes, 2 Danes, 1 Singaporean, 1 Chinese girl, 1 Kiwi, and another American. I’m upholding the tradition in my family of making Thanksgiving international. It was the first Thanksgiving for all of them except of course the American. They all enjoyed the holiday and most of the food, and after we all finished eating we basically collapsed in the living room area. There was a silence interrupted only by the occassional groan as someone tried to move. In otherwords, it was a success!

Side Note: Camilla and her boyfriend (both Danish) will be visiting DC for almost a week around New Year’s, and they’ll be staying at my house. After that, they go up to New York. I’d love for people to meet them, and for them to meet my American friends and family. SO EXCITED!
