25th Birthday!

Happy Birthday to me! 
Today is my 25th birthday! 

Last year I spent my 24th birthday with friends at the beautiful Andechs Monastery outside of Munich.

(How cute is this? Thanks Audrey!)


It's amazing how much has happened in the last year!

Since September 24th, 2009

I've been to 10 different countries and 4 continents 
Sold my house
Moved to Chicago
Moved to Charlotte
Started Culinary School


I can't wait to see what the next year brings!

updates updates updates!!

My oh my I certainly have been MIA lately!

Where were we last? Paris? From Paris I took a train to Frankfurt, Germany and have been in Germany and Austria for the last week and a half.

I met Chris, Allan, and Eddie in Frankfurt where we immediately got on a train and headed to Munich and Oktoberfest! The boys' friend from college, Audrey, and her sister, Jill met us in Munich. The 6 of us had an amazing time prost-ing, eating way too many sausages, and belting out the cheesiest American music playing at Oktoberfest (Achey Breaky Heart-- can you top that?)!

After 4 days in Munich Jill and Audrey returned to Spain where Audrey lives and the boys and I continued on to Salzburg, Austria. Yes, the birth place of The Von Trap Family Singers!!! While we didn't take the Sound of Music bus tour like I wanted to do I was mentally running through the SoM soundtrack in my mind the entire time. With an afternoon trip to the German Alps and a day full of bike riding we had a great time in Salzurg.

Don´t worry I´ll give you the full scoop on all the stops, including Oktoberfest, in seperate posts!
