time lapse.

Take a look at this beautiful video. It's incredible: so many countries and people and photographs. The photos of Petra and Amman are stunning. It's crazy to think that it's been nearly two years since I left for Jordan. Portugal & Thailand look beautiful too. Someday, I would love to visit any or all of the countries pictured. I love that there are so many places to go.

ps. I read John Green's new book, The Fault in Our Stars, yesterday. I'll post a review as soon as possible, but for now, it was incredible.

fun fun fun.

It's grey and dark and rainy outside, this first day of the new year. Today was all kinds of crazy- mainly, it was the launch of Fernweh. Fernweh began as Libby's brainchild, and the result of an email sent out to a group of us in October. We've worked crazy-hard on this (Hannah and Libby most of all) and I'm so happy that it's finally published and out there. I'd love to know what you think of it.

As for the rest of life, it's good. My grandparents are here until Wednesday, and after a year of not seeing them, I'm not sure I could describe how much fun it's been to have them here.

I'm excited to see what happens this year.
