Around the world, around the world

So obviously it's been forever since i've written and every day i get mad at myself for not writing anything down that's going on in this ever eventful summer! i don't even know where to start but i'll just throw a few stories out there for those who are interested! So i must say my favorite part of my life right now are 2 things: meeting people from around the world and riding the quad bike down to get my lunch. The first one is obvious...i've met so many cool people...my favorites i think are the australians. they just seem to live life a lill more carefree than all of us. And they don't have that work, work work mentality that so many of us have. They work and they work well but they know how to play and how to play well! They also seem to be the ones who can travel the most freely around the world. Their passports seem to have no limits and they can all get visas easily! JEALOUS!!! i have no doubt that i'll keep in touch with a few of them and when i finally make my way around the world to Australia i can't wait to meet up with some of them! (hopefully!) Currently my new crushes are these 5 Portugese boys...yes they leave tomorrow so my crush will pass but they are all so sweet and speak enough English just to be cute enough! Oh and one in particular I'm going to marry! haha! And 2 of his friends are fighting over who's going to be the best man! haha! Always something to entertain you here at the pink palace. And another fact about the folks i meet, is that by far a British accent is my favorite...i always knew i liked it but also liked australian and south african but i've confirmed now brits sound the best! haha! if only there were more that stayed at the PP!

My second favorite thing...although i know it sounds totally random...is riding the quad (4 wheeler) bike down to pick up our lunch. Every day i get off at 1 and we have to pick our lunch up from the kitchen at the beach. and for some reason riding the bike down with the gorgeous scenery of the water and the cliffs, never fails to take my breath away! Even if i've had the worst morning of craziness, i still smile and laugh riding down or back up! Maybe it's the wind in my hair or maybe it's just the simple fact that i'm miles away from the reality of my life back in Alabama. Not worrying about paying this bill or that bill or wondering what the hell i'm going to do now that i don' thave a job or wondering why i'm still single. But for this time in my day...i'm just loving life!!!!!! And isn't that we all should do every now and then...just enjoy a smile!

YEAH!! keep taking lots of pics so you can re-escape there any time in the future when you need to... reality's not terrible, but its nice to have those amazing memories to jump back to from time to time. I like to think about me eating breakfast overlooking the Mediterranean as i did EVERY morning for 6 months in Genoa... amazing. just like your daily bike ride i'm sure!
