So Yesterday I headed on the bus to go to Table Mountain first – the 1,087 meter high mountain that is the backdrop to Cape Town, and what do you know I didn’t bring my camera. So I just took the tour bus all around Cape Town without my camera until I got to my stop […]

Yesterday after doing some essential stuff, I wandered down to the Q & A Waterfront. It is adorable, very touristy and super busy since it was the weekend, but a very nice waterfront. It reminds me a lot of San Francisco except Cape Town is not as hilly and has the Huge Table Mountain as it’s […]

hey everyone! I made it! I am in Cape Town, South Africa! The flights were both super long, 7 hours and 11 hours. But I was happy to get a window seat on the 11 hour flight so it was a little easier to sleep with somewhere to put my head. My layover was in […]

I am about five days out from leaving!!! I just got back to Appleton to September’s house (where all my stuff is) so that I can repack and pack for my trip! It is kinda crazy and overwhelming how much stuff I need to do, but also if some of it doesn’t get done it’s […]

Since I’ve left Hawaii with my mom I have been very busy visiting family and friends! I went from Hawaii to Denver where I met up with 8 other friends and headed to a condo we rented in breckenridge! Highlights from the weekend were being able to snowboard, making a nutcrackers arm fall off, our […]

It was a beautiful day to visit Pearl Harbor today, the sun was shining and the breeze was blowing off the ocean, probably much like the morning of December 7, 1941. Pearl Harbor is very interesting to go to, extremely sad and definitely a must see for a trip to Hawaii, but so sad and I […]

We have been having a great time in Oahu. We have hiked to the makapu’u lighthouse, pali highway look out, driven the whole island and we have been joined by my friend Lange from the ship. We have a four bedroom house in Wahiawa.. so it’s a little extreme but still nice with a great view […]

I am finally off the ship and am now on vacation permanently…. for at least a year I hope!! I ended up my contract in a bar I had been in for four months… which gets tiring, it’s like having ground hog week over and over again. That is the reason I didn’t have many posts. […]

Wow! It’s been awhile since I’ve posted but mostly because o got a new bar where I work all day long so that means a lot less time for adventures. Having a new bar is good and bad, I was super bored at my old bar and this one is much busier and more responsibility […]

So on Tuesday a group of about 6 of us headed to try to walk to walk to the lava and where it pours into the ocean. I have done this about a year ago when I went out w my two friends. That time we just walked right out to the smoke and the ocean, […]

Today was the last day of the Maui county fair and about 10 of us went over to join in the festivities. I had gone last year and made sure to go this year. We had. Great time eating some good Hawaiian food, playing games, looking at livestock and looking at different booths! I had […]

Yesterday I went snorkeling in Maui. We were supposed to go to molokini crater but ended up going to a spot off the coast. For some reason this happens a lot when trying to go to the crater, their excuse is wind or bad visibility. But I also think it’s a good thing too because the […]

I’ve been back on ship for almost two full weeks and so far it is going well. As always in my two first weeks I keep wondering what am I doing here? But that generally goes away after a little while! Haha! I am working at the coffee bar on ship which means that I have […]

Those of you I’ve talked to know that I had been bar serving for awhile because we had a lot of our permanent bartenders back. Barserving is very boring after bartending a busy bar where you’re always using your mind and doing stuff. But I’m finally back to bartending!! I have my own bar this time […]

A week in Minnesota was great! I spent the first couple days with my bff, Lindsey, which was great! And then headed up to Duluth with the girls on Friday… In the snow! Yes I just said snow in may! It snowed horribly on the way up Friday and there was still snow on the pitch […]

So I think the beach I said I’ve been looking at from the ship is one of my new Favorite beaches in Hilo! I am back at the beach hanging out with mostly local families and a couple fishermen, just enjoying the sunshine we are getting in Hilo!! Normally it is rainy here so this is […]
