Oh, how time flies.
Just over two years ago, I posted big news on this blog. We were moving to Europe. I said that we were scared, nervous and unsure of what the future held but that we’d decided to hold hands and embark on the adventure together.
It feels as if we’ve been living in a parallel universe where even some of the smallest everyday things present new and confounding challenges. We’ve visited 16 countries in 24 months and have made every effort to take full advantage of this opportunity. Our group of close friends, both locals and fellow expats, have enriched the experience. Alas, all good things must come to an end.
In the next two months, Bo and I will be turning over our Swiss visas and finding a brand new address in New York City.
While we still have more than 20 cities left unvisited on our European travel list and will miss Switzerland’s natural beauty, I hear that Europe is only a quick overnight flight from New York.
WOW! Big news!!! Welcome home (almost)
Thanks Nicole! We’re excited!
how exciting! I keep trying to tell my husband we should move to London for a year – I think it would be an amazing experience. So awesome that you tackled so many countries in so little time! On a side note – where were you standings r the NYC picture? I’m headed there in a month (first time!) and would love a good shot of the city!
It was awesome Ashleigh! We are actually in Brooklyn, standing right near Brooklyn Bridge Park. You should go over to Brooklyn on a Sunday to experience Smorgasborg (http://www.smorgasburg.com/) as it’s DELICIOUS!
Wow. Cannot believe it has been two years. Too bad you can’t stay for a few weeks of just travel, no work, at the end of it to hit more of the cities on your list.
Yup, Abby, it’s flown by so quickly. I agree – we both wish we could travel a bit more before we leave but we can’t complain. It has been an amazing experience!
YAY!!! Hope to be able to get together before we leave SAV next spring!
You’re leaving Savannah? Where next? I will definitely be home at Christmas and most likely a few times before! We will definitely meet up! 🙂
Wahoo, we are psyched to have you back in the big apple. It’s missed you.
Thanks Melissa! 🙂
Cheers to new adventures! Enjoy your last few weeks in Europe!!
Thank you Lynne! These last few weeks will be a whirlwind!
Welcome back (soon)! I remember seeing the big announcement of your voyage to Switzerland and it’s been fun reading about your journey.
Thank you so much! It will be a crazy few months but hopefully we land on our feet. 🙂
Hope you have a great rest of your time in Europe! I need to e-mail you on Paris recommendations soon 🙂 I know Lizzie and Mike are looking forward to having you back in town- hopefully see you stateside soon!
Thanks so much Jenna! We’re so thrilled to be back in NYC. We would LOVE to help you with Paris recommendations!
GUESS WHO WON CAPTURE THE PASSPORT
I was about to ask, what was Theodora’s response? I bet there was some jumping and screaming.
I live vicariously through my favorite bloggers sometimes. Haha.
Yes, it is fair to say that she is very excited!
YOU YOU YOU!
Whoa! That’s exciting! Welcome back!!! 🙂
Thanks Kim!
Congratulations to both of you. It’s hard to watch a chapter of life come to a close, but change is good. See you in NYC 🙂
I am so looking forward to catching up with you lovely lady! 🙂
Let’s tag out! I’m moving to Ireland in September for grad school. 🙂
Welcome back (soon)! Let’s put together a blog meetup before I jet!
So exciting! Enjoy the rest of your time there!
SO exciting!! Sounds like you’ve had an amazing adventure, and have another one waiting for you! 🙂
