vacation – Livingleen

Hey Friends!

I can’t believe how long its been since my last post – holy moly I’m behind! In my defense everything happened all at once, just like it always does, and the first thing to fall off was my blogging – don’t hate me!

ANYWAY…

I got a new job…yep, thats right, no more wedding industry for this girl! I can’t believe it but after nearly 5 years I am saying goodbye to my AWG family and moving onto a great opportunity with a software company. I know what you’re thinking, from weddings to software…what gives?!?! I will be working in a sales development role for Workzone, a project management software company…I can’t wait! I am just a few days into the new role, since I was in Alaska (yep, I’ll get to that), but I can already tell I’m going to love it.

Like I mentioned, I went to Alaska with my family and toured the inner passage. We made stops in Ketchikan, Icy Strait/Hoonah, Juneau, Skagway, Hubbard Glacier, Seward and flew home from Anchorage. Included in our heavily active outdoor activities was a walk-about on a glacier…totally out of this world! While the whole experience was beyond amazing, I did spend a fare amount of time sick. Thats right, I learned something new about myself this vacation…I get motion sickness, BAD!

Sickness aside, I have never seen anything like some of the sites in Alaska and I can’t wait to go back! Now its time to focus on yoga…just 32 days until I fly to Tulum for the first week of what will be a life changing adventure!!! YAY Yoga Medicine!

‘Til next time, keep smiling 🙂

While we are getting pelted with snow here in Philadelphia….

I am daydreaming of somewhere more like this…

While I do wish the weather outside was a bit less frosty, it is nice to admire the beauty of snow. There is something very peaceful and pure about the evening after a good snow fall: The city is quiet and covered in a blanket of white sprinkled with sparkles from the city lights. I absolutely love evening strolls when the weather is like this…I just have to remember to bundle up!

That being said, there is nothing like looking forward to a good tropical vacation. I am in the throws of craziness with work, coaching and school but the moitvation of a potential getaway is keeping me going. While there are no official plans on the books, my brother and his girlfriend just returned from a costa rican vacation and its given me the itch.

I have been browsing potential long weekend getaways on a budget and today’s weather has inspired the planning process more than ever! While I bundle up and brainstorm, I would love some suggestions!

Happy Snow Day!
