A Few Pictures of My Casita
As stated above, here are a few pictures of my little casita’s very Santa Fe style.
A Teaser For Now
The morning started off interestingly yesterday. I arrived at the casita, found some keys in the garden area and went in. Strangely, it didn’t look like the photos he’d posted, but I quickly changed, left my things and ran off to explore Santa Fe. When I returned about 4 hours later, the front gate was … Continue reading
Checking Things Off
There are 3, actually 4, more trips for me coming up before the end of the year. The upcoming one next week will be Santa Fe, the longest one will be Vietnam, the one I’m most excited about is Hawaii and then there’s that little jaunt to Las Vegas just because. Santa Fe is, for … Continue reading
Trial and Error Travel
There’s a bit of a lull before my next trip. It’s not even the end of June and I’ll be “stationary” in San Francisco until mid-August.

He said that I’ll soon be signing up for a Vietnamese language course! Well, after one semester of not studying, I’ve already forgotten most of my Italian. My … Continue reading
Spirituality
For those of you who know (and for those of you who don’t know), I’m Catholic. I’m not the type of Catholic that goes to church every Sunday and takes communion and all of that. I go to church when I feel the need, I give things up for Lent, I prefer to attend Easter … Continue reading
