Today's society in a nutshell?..

I came across this video, which is trending right now on youtube about the lamenting cell phone culture. Pretty funny and can totally see myself fall prey to it. But I often do see myself as that girl in the group where I'm just trying to live in the moment and not have to stare at a bright little screen all the time. Maybe twice a day for a good 10 minutes is enough for me. Or maybe I don't have an amazing exciting social life to entertain or catch up on. I can relate to the scene where the girl is lying in bed with her bf and he just stares at his cell phone...DRIVES. ME. NUTS. And when he just zoned you out and get a response 30 seconds later.


So that means...


I just need to get a battery extension for my phone so I can be connected ALL.THE.TIME...;)

The Most Beautiful Hike

Over the memorial weekend we went to Carmel and hiked Point Lobos State Reserve. It was the most beautiful hike ever! Around every corner was a surprise and you just couldn't help but to stand there in awe. The breathtaking scenery and peaceful trails made it romantic. I was tingling inside with joy and excitement. This has by far been one of the best weekend trips I've had in my life! We also drove through the 17 mile scenic drive but it was cloudy that day.

Ciao Italy!

This post has been long overdue! My one week in Italy was very fun and rushed. One day in Venice, Milan, two days in Florence and three days in Rome. We arrived in Venice via train and saw the Rialto bridge and the famous Grand Canal right outside the station! Luckily the weather was clear blue skies that day!
