How to Fight Like an Italian

August 16, 2017 by Devon

She used to terrify me.Back in Rome (2005) this woman was my boss and I thought she was crazy.Every morning I woke up to her upset in the kitchen.I lived in a small adjoining room because I was her kids' nanny.When I decided to quit we had a blowout.A blend of Italian and English issued from both of our mouths, tears were flying and moments later, I was texting friends looking for a new place to stay.Later that night when I came home to collect my things, she had bought me fagiolini (Italian green beans); my … [Read more...]

Inexpensive, beautiful and full of the good stuff; Budapest, Hungary is one of my favorite cities is the world.  It is so far off the radar for most American travelers which is all the reason you should go.They have great fashion and food.  The Danube river and all the historic decorative buildings make it romantic plus with the exchange rate, you and your honey can afford to live like royalty.You can spend the day in castles and the nights under the stars in bubbling hot pools.Eat what you want and do what you want. We certainly … [Read more...]

Romania: You Don’t Even Know

August 14, 2016 by Devon

Backward, cold, and full of theives. I've heard some rough stuff about Romania but what I learned last night, takes the cake.Bukarest is live- like all the way live.Been around the world and seen a lot of clubs, but nobody tops this place. It makes Nyc look like an old age home full of complainers.They played every Rap/R&B hit from 1992 until today. Everyone was dressed and dancing (guys too) and at one point they had a storm of paper napkins blowing around the room, and I don't know why, but we all felt like it was raining $100 … [Read more...]

Vienna: And I’m so nervous to tell people why, but here goes…

August 7, 2016 by Devon

I am in Vienna for love.As if there is any better reason to do anything in this world. I met Zoltan seven years ago and we re-met on my trip around the world. After a long interesting story, which he hopes will someday become a book (and maybe it will) I am here typing this update on his couch while he’s at work.I left all my stuff in America to give this a shot.The fear I have at sharing this story is immense. What if everything crumbles and fails and everyone knows about it?For years I never told anyone in my family about who … [Read more...]
