Confessions of a Wandering Gypsy Princess

Despite my vow that I would freak out if we were not on the road today, we are not on the road and I am ok. Last night we (and by we I mean Patrick, as I drank champagne with Oma to celebrate our on the road soon night, and [...]

I have been ignoring work a little the past week as I have been busy rescuing girls from the impending doom brought on by thunder storms. By rescuing I mean cooking, as there was no way I was actually going to venture out into the thunder storm unless I was forced to, and besides [...]

Is that Tracey will be here for her birthday, AND I have that day off! (sadly I work 12 hours the day before her birthday, but Im sending her to Ludwigsburg that day the same way I did so for my parents). For her birthday I am taking her to [...]

So yesterday I had 3 back to back lessons on the road. At first I was beyond excited, at that rate (as up to now I have been doing one a WEEK), I would finally have all 12 done by the end of this month. Only it turns out the only time he [...]

Me practicing:
heh heh

I have had another exhausting day, and I am ready to curl up, go to bed, and not wake up till the weekend. Only I cant do that because I need to get up tomorrow to work, or cancel the work I have. Slowly breaking down and really wishing I received [...]

Turkey and Japan have been in my mind a lot lately. Turkey because we have been talking about going back there this summer for a trip. Japan because of the food food food! Well for many reasons really, with the extra work I have been doing lately I have been daydreaming about [...]

Since coming to Germany I have not only become more environmentally aware and conscious, but more importantly I have discovered that as much as I thought I was environmentally aware before, I was a stuff consuming machine. (I now use the Story of Stuff for my lessons as well, it makes for great [...]

One joy of Christmas is the free flowing wine.    Of course one joy of Germany is the cheap delicious wine!  As a Canadian we normally sign away our first born, a kidney, or sometimes just a toe to purchase drinkable wine.  The fees for good wine would make the average Swab laugh before [...]

Merry Christmas everyone! We celebrated Christmas last night in Switzerland as Christmas Eve is the big night in my partner’s family. Now everyone has left and it is just immediate family.  Myself and my partner are using that rare quiet time to begin looking over our potential route for the trip through Africa. [...]

So while waiting for my phone lesson I began to read A Girl A Bike A Dream and I am completely sucked into it. It is making me more and more excited about our planned trip for this coming May. We plan on going back through the Ukraine, around the black sea, through [...]

I have often seen other blogs where they have polls. These polls range from the serious to the bizarre, even to what color the author should change their hair color to (or not depending on how you look at it) Easy poll makes web polls for blogs easy! The sweet part [...]

You may find it strange that a 28 year old woman with no children of her own, and only a 17 month old niece as her regular contact to the trends of youth would know exactly who Hannah Montana is, and more importantly, actually know about the Hannah Montana tour.  Yet I do know all [...]

I have 3 weeks till beach vacation!!! The joy this fills me with is almost indescribable. It is true I am working too much, I have taken on the workaholic nature of Patrick. Though I love my privates, and most of my school courses, there are a couple that really drive me [...]

It never ceases to awe me how people are able to switch from language to language. Some people are quite lucky and were born with parents who did not share the same mother tongue. If their parents were diligent about it when they were younger then they grew up with two [...]

I spent Wednesday night traveling and then crashing at a hotel, and all day yesterday teaching, and then back on the train today.  I am glad I only have two lessons today!  However despite telling one of my schools my Thursday is not available they keep calling me to book me.  At this [...]

Of particular interest for you Alix! As well as any and all of my readers who love anime. Which I know you exist. How could you not after my Thursday 13 on 13 reasons why Naruto rocks?? Fanamie Friday is a regular feature on nanashi-inc.net’s blog, and it covers [...]

Until I am fully ready to make that decision however I will keep myself happy here with the many cheap vacations that are available for people like me with Gypsy souls.  Holiday Hypermarket allows you to book cheap holidays from the convenience of online browsing.  I have always wanted to go on a holiday in [...]
