Hello everyone! I apologize for the delay in communication, but rarely do I find myself with either (1) an internet connection, (2) a phone, or (3) the will to take a break from the adventure of a lifetime and begin writing. I’ll jump right in…Currently, I am on my wonderful hostess’s back porch, which overlooks…
Brussels, Belgium After four wonderful nights in the City of Light, I decided to make a quick detour to Brussels, where I actually had my choice of couchsurfing options (another “jackpot” moment for couchsurfers).
