Today, in honor of Mother’s Day, I wanted to talk about one of my most recent trips with one of my favorite travel buddies- my mother of course! I’ve been lucky enough to have traveled several times with my mom. We’ve done trips to NYC to have a weekend full of musicals and the year …

Kentucky Bourbon Trail- Day Three: Finishing Up the Trail
It’s been about a month since I traveled to Kentucky for my Bourbon Trail spring-break trip, but as the saying goes “Better late than never”. Some of my friends and family would disagree with that saying, instead preferring perhaps “Katie, why are you always late”, or “Shocker- Katie’s late”, but I’ll go with the old …

The Hot Guy
So in continuing with my online dating escapades I again have to reiterate that my favorite thing about the website Tinder (the only online site I’ve been using throughout this time of trying to “get back out there”) is that both parties involved have to “like” each other’s profiles (which are basically just pictures) in …
-Delete-
After my last post, I recalled that my date with Rod wasn’t actually my first date after my break-up, it was the second one. The first one occurred when I really, truly wasn’t ready to start dating, but I decided to go because, well, why not? I didn’t want to sit around and wait for …
Re-entering the Dating Pool
Well, I’m baaaacccckkk! So first let me apologize for my disappearance. It was an amazing year with an adorable, sweet, loving guy…well up until the point when I realized that he wasn’t actually any of those things and was actually just selfish and cheap, but you’ll have that, right? So Katie still hasn’t been caught, …
Australian Adventure- Day 4 & 5
Day Four– This morning we left Sydney to head north, towards the home stay portion of our trip abroad. It was a long day on the bus, but we were making good time and before lunch we decided to stop at a park and play some get-to-know-you games. Sounds like a good idea right? I …
Australian Adventure- Day 3
Today I discovered my love of Australian surfing….men. Australian surfers are all I expected them to be: tall, thin, tanned, shaggy hair, and let’s not forget the accent. Our surfing expedition took place on the famous (at least in Australia) Bondi Beach. We headed there on the bus amongst blue skies and hopeful hearts that …
Australian Adventure- Day 1-2
For the last two summers, I’ve had the fortune of traveling the world with students from my area of Ohio. Last year I traveled to 6 countries in Europe (which I had done three times before with students from the schools at which I taught), and this summer I am traveling to Australia! There were …
A Single Girls Blessings
I’m officially on summer break now, and my summer has started off on a very high note. I always have a list of projects that I plan on doing in the summer, and while I think that I am a pretty handy girl, I’ve always relied on my dad or whatever guy I’m dating at …
