Lbubljana, the capital city of Slovenia was full of canals and cafes. The city itself had many universities most everything catered to young professionals and students. I was tired when I arrived, but the liveliness of the city kept me energized. A rally for a social democratic group was being held in the city's center. The campaigns were for the Slovenian Presidential election. The opening band sounded like U2. All the local teenagers were singing along to the words. I wasn't into them.

I met another solo female traveler from Wilmington, NC. Megan had just finished her master's degree in Valencia and was traveling for a couple weeks. We paled around for several days in Slovenia and took a day trip to see the Postojna caves. The caves had dazzling formations of calcite, stalactites and stalagmites in an array of different shapes and colors from spaghetti hanging stalagmites to bright green calcite. It had been a warm day outside, but inside the caves the temperature dropped to 40 below. The deeper regions of the 20 kilometers of chambers and passages were stunning and bitter cold.

After Three Months Away from TV, we have Snuggie?

Life before snuggie? Boring.

Slowly Intergrating into Daily Life.

I have a weekend to myself to relax and process my time in Europe. I plan on reading through my journals, while petsitting a beagle.

Integrating slowly into life in Boston. Baby steps are important for my own harmony.

Weekend plans include hiking with the beagle at Walden Pond.

In between unpacking and job searching, I'm testing my ear by creating this playlist.

I tried to broaden my music library by choosing unique style ranges and genres. I wanted to include my favorites, but also keep it fresh with new stuff. There are no correlations through genres or in song titles. And no connection between themes either. These songs are compiled according to how well they flowed together through tempos and rhythm.

Many of the songs inspired me while traveling. They helped me when I needed to tune out and through the lonely parts too.

Enjoy

I made it...

three snow storms and 11 hours later. Interview tomorrow! Lots of rest is needed tonight. Luckily, I updated my resume and pressed my business clothes last weekend. All ready to go for tomorrow.

It's hard saying goodbye. Though, I am confident I did the right thing and I'm leaving when it feels right too. I will return to Ohio often to make sure my Grandma's comfortable. There was some family pressure for me to stay, but I know my Grandma better than most and she would have wanted me to continue on with my own plans. A positive out of this situation is that my cousins and I are now really close. They made me feel at home eating dinner together and drinking Great Lakes Christmas ale.

Eleven hour drive ahead of me. Thank God for news radio, coke plus, and orbit's pink gum.
