My mom delighted me today with the idea of us, the mother-daughter duo, going somewhere, to some city or country and just shop, enjoy ourselves and spend time together. I love my mom to bits, so I said yes to her straight away! I applied to a college called Menntaskólinn við Hamrahlíð and I am very positive on being accepted and I hope for the sake of myself that I get to go there. I was so sure I would be accepted that I checked the school calendar and saw there was a fall-break in October, the 13th, 14th and the 17th to be precise. It all came together so naturally. This was the time for us to go! We haven't decided yet where we are going but we're looking around for special offers and stuff like that so where we go isn't really up to us. It doesn't hurt that my mom's best friend works at Icelandair and is a booking manager of some sort and we get updated with new offers and discounts every week. We narrowed it down though to a couple cities that we are really interested in exploring, some we've been to before, some not. The lis consists of the following: Milan, Paris, Stockholm, Barcelona, New York, Boston or Frankfurt. I mean we're not going on a bonding/shopping/sightseeing trip to Faroe Islands. Am I right? I myself would love to go somewhere new and inspiring because I've only travelled in the states and Alicante, Spain a tourist wonderland with sand and theme parks, water world and not a slight bit of culture. I want to go somewhere where we don't know the native tongue but we are capable of saving ourselves out of sticky situations. It doesn't hurt that I speak Icelandic, Danish, Swedish, English and Spanish! I'd love to know what is your favorite city, and where you like to travel or where you want to go!

Love Always

 

Hahah saw this photo on Vi.Sualize.Us the other day and laughed! I love the thought of being pregnant though. I can't really wait. I've been having this feeling all week how wonderful it is to be a mother. I am sick though, fever, cough and cold hence it might be that!

 

I am so calm in my heart right now, I'm craving a by-the-sea getaway. A trip that won't end till I wan't it to. No stress only relaxation and fun in the water hah! I sound like I'm half-asleep. Good night, sweet dreams.

Love Always

I'm leaving for San Francisco tomorrow and I honestly can't wait. I've been in the same place for too long. I hate packing because frankly I'm horrible at it. I pack pieces of clothing without really thinking of the pieces as outfits so I usually end up looking hilarious. Now I'm not going to bring alot, I'm going to buy alot. I love the though of me buying new stuff here or here. I love planes and flights there is something so amazing about being in an airport getting ready to get departured to a new country with new and fresh potential and new adventures.

Our house in S.F. is so warm and amazing. I love the feeling I get when I get there. Being in a place where you grew up it's just so comforting. San Francisco is my favorite city in the whole world.

I hope you and your family have a very happy holiday!
