Loving Travelling Living

I already talked about my story in this blog… I am from Sardinia, Italy; I lived in Frankfurt Germany for one year and a half and I am now taking a master in London. Plus I will move back to Frankfurt once the Master will be over. It is now break from University between one module and the other, this means I am supposed to be home, but where is home? Is my home my native county? Is my home where all my stuff is? Is my home where I currently have a doctor? These are the questions that for people like me who travel a lot are coming up very frequently. What are the signs of someone living in more countries at the same time? #1 You have more SIM cards. When on the plane they first think you do once landed is to change your SIM card and use the local phone number. This also mean that whenever someone asks you your phone number you just say: well just look for me on facebook messenger. #2 What’s your address? This problem just came to me when ordering ...

My boyfriend and I make a deal, since I ’ m taking a master in London and we lived in Frankfurt (Germany) we try to see each other at least once every 3 weeks. Because of this, our Christmas gift was a weekend in Rome in January. Being myself Italian, I couldn ’ t wait to show the best places of Rome to my French boyfriend. Arrival day Arrived on Friday night, we took an amazing pizza in one of those little restaurants behind the corner of a small streets, with just Italians inside. The pizza was amazing Then we took a nice walk and our Bed and Breakfast was near the Vatican and we had the pleasure to see Saint Peter almost empty. It was so majestic. I couldn ’ t stop admiring it. Day 1 Morning Since we were so close to the Vatican, we decided to take a real tour of it. We visited the Sistine chapel, the Cupola enjoying the amazing view and the basilica. It is a very recommended tour, we spent € 8 for the Sistine chapel, Vatican museums and gardens; € 6...

Rome, our Christmas gift! My mom keeps saying there aren’t traditional gifts anymore. It is true, the gifts me and my boyfriend exchange are normally in somehow “experiences”. A ticket to a water park, a trip to a new city, the ticket to a musical. Our Christmas gift was something we both enjoyed. One weekend in Rome, we went to Paris in November and since I am Italian I was more than happy to show Rome in January to my special one. Going with him to Rome led me see the city in a different light, much more romantic than the tipical museums and monuments trip. I discovered my boyfriend a person who’s incredibly interested in art and history. We had amazing time, great food, great weather (20° Celsius) and amazing sunsets. The best mix for a quick catch-up of our long-distance relationship, it was one of our planned trips to make the separations easier and it definitely worked. Here are some pictures, what are your favourite spots in Rome? ...

I suppose you all know in some how Sheldon Cooper from The Big Bang Theory, he ’ s famous to have his own way of doing things. Something that really characterize his behaviour is his collection of agreements. Flatmates agreements with Leonard and Relationship agreement with Amy just to cite some. Me and my boyfriend are big fan of that Tv-Show, but no worries, we didn ’ t write and sign an agreement. We did promise each other to put all the effort to make the relationship work during the master program I ’ m taking in London (I talked about it in My Short Story ). What we came up with is this list : ·          One selfie a day at least ·          Trying to call every day ·          Skype at least once a week ·          Meet every about 3 weeks (we made a real plan) This is how our meeting plan went...

Mom I don ’ t wanna lay on the couch all day! December 2014: Graduation from my bachelor program January 2015: I was extremely bored and I saw nothing good coming to me before the beginning of a master the following September This was my time line, being bored doing nothing until the new courses would have actually started. I am not that kind of person that lays on the couch all day, eating mom ’ s food, and using mom ’ s money. For this reasons I started checking what I could do to make a good use out of this huge amount of spare time Looking at all kinds of job offers and internships I ’ ve been suggested from my sister to try to find an Au-Pair job somewhere in Europe, so that I could learn a new language, and considering I already knew English it would have been an easy choice. I go on a few websites and I make my profile. A few weeks later a lovely family sent me a message and we started a conversation that brought me to get everything ready and start a ne...

I lived most of my life in Alghero, Sardinia, Italy! Yes, an island in the middle of the Mediterranean. It is super cool and living 3 minutes walking from the sea definitely made my childhood special. Travelling has always been inside me and my first big trip was in the US during an exchange program of one year. During this time, I lived in 2 different American families (it was required from the program to change family) and travel all over the US in one month bus road trip. The big challenging trip is the one that has been keeping me outside of home for more than 2 years already and it seems not bringing me back. I went to Germany, in Frankfurt as an Au-Pair pushed to learn a new language, discover a new culture and meet new people. When my Au-Pair time was over, I decided to stay to improve the little German I learned. I found a job in an Italian caf é and with ups and downs I earned enough money to live on my own just doing German courses. In the end of my Ge...
