The sun rising over a different part of the world, shining so incandescently its as if I flew from New York straight to a turf closer to heaven, and arousing sensuous languages that had the power of a raunchy prowess beckoning you to come hither, and...um, the orgasmic culinary delights pulled from ocean to plate was definitely a rapturous experience, so much so that I would rather spend my last euro on a slither of a spoonful of fresh salmon risotto than anything at Zara. Though admittedly, the chic street walker above is wearing a chocolate faux leather skirt from the Zara in Lisbon, Portugal that I groped on the racks not once, but twice, in shameless weakness. But I digress.
Traveling gave me a sense of wonder and whimsy that is inconceivably unmatched when surrounded by the same four walls day after day, year after year (needless to say being a fashion editor does not grant life-affirming and explorative vacations with benefits as one might think) so, even though I am back for a while, it has definitely prompted me to keep my calendar open should the winds of change blow me into a new direction. If you're still reading, chances are you've entertained the thought of traveling, writing, or blogging about the innumerable experiences that this oyster of a world has to offer. I must ask- what are you waiting for exactly? A free plane ticket? Suck it up darlin, that ain't happenin any time soon, ya hear! But don't sweat, I bought my ticket around the world for a measly 400 bucks due to an inconvenient stop in Chicago. Inconvenient for some, first time for me, and thus expanding my world view by one more city. Oh and yes, Chicago ROCKS. Any chitowners in the house?
