Paige's Return to Deutschland!

Hallo from Berlin! This blog is a place for friends and family to get occasional snip-its on Biggs' life in Germany and me to assuage my guilt for living so far away from loved ones. Expect bad syntax and so-so sentence structure. There is no shame in just scrolling for little Biggs' photos for a "cute fix" without the risk of getting sucked into social media.

Taking this show on the road

It’s true; thanks to JetBlue I’m back on the road again. I bought an unlimited travel pass to fly anywhere JetBlue flies between September 8th to October 8th. I’m already on my second stop in Philadelphia. I’m here salsaing, hiking, and general goofing around with partner in crime and newly Philadelphia resident: Julie. We’ll actually be staying at her house instead of a mini-van like our last adventure. We’re moving up in the world.

The timing of this trip could not be more perfect. I started a project for Simon’s company about a month ago. It’s on-demand research which works out to be about part-time. This means time to hang out with friends, an activity to entertain myself while friends are at work/school, and enough money to survive.

My last month in Seattle was so great that I almost didn’t want to leave. The weekend before my birthday I went to Victoria with the girls in my core group Bible study. (See photos below.) Once back in Seattle, I had a great family and roommate birthday party. Oliver and his dance moves were the life of the party. This 26th year is off to a great start.

Stop 1: Colorado




Top: One of the highlights of visiting Colleen in Denver was a brunch at the Bump n’ Grind. On Sundays the waiters are in drag. I didn’t get any photos of them or us, out of respect of course, but here’s a bit of the décor to show the experience.

Bottom: Only in Boulder. Yup, this guy is playing a banjo while standing on his head.

Bday Bonanza



The Olympic Crew: Liz, Rachel, Rosie, Cecy, and Me.

Tea Time + Tea Cozies = Happy Girls

Beautiful Victoria
