Let’s be honest. I will always love fresh pão (bread) and
peanut butter, even when I’m on American soil…rather, American asphalt and
hardwood floors. Dana, MFer, and Bevil encouraged me to keep up the blog, and
hey – “the daily bucket bath” is still relevant to my life, except for the word
“bucket”…and “bath”…and “daily”…just kidding. So I thought to myself, well, if
no one ends up reading the blog, what the hell is
wrong with you? I mean, I thought to myself, what the hell, I like writing
and didn’t even realize that people were reading it when I was in Mozambique,
but still dedicated most of my precious 150 minutes a week of internet to
blogging. So I might as well keep on going.
Since my last post, I left Mozambique and went right to
France (through Ethiopia) to visit Jorge with a total of two French words in my
head. Unfortunately, he had classes during most of my visit, so I visited
museums by myself, ate crepes by myself, journaled in hot chocolate shops by
myself, sampled honey by myself, bought an awesome cow hat by myself, and went
salsa dancing…with Jorge. Tricked ya.

Then I took the train to Switzerland to catch a plane to England to visit Bradley, who is ever as gentlemanly as the last time I saw him, puh-haps even more so.
Then I met my family and their 15 bags of luggage in Italy.
An incredible and hilarious journey of fresh and not-so-fresh pão ensued. It
merits no words, only the video below.
