Sunday Walk

This past Sunday, Seta was sick, the weather was nice and we were bored! Normally if we were home in the states, this would mean a visit to family or friends just to get out of the house. But life here is different. Although we do have friends we could have visited, there's nothing like dropping in for a random visit to family or close friends who are pretty much family. Small pleasures like this are what I miss back home!

On the other hand, back home we wouldn't be able to drive a couple minutes to a Frenchy downtown like this and enjoy the beautiful, historical surroundings. I never get tired of this foreign beauty! I love my life here and am so grateful for this experience. I have to remind myself of how awesome it is to be here on days I miss home. Overall, I love it here! I'm totally soaking it in because I know when we go back to the states, life will get more complicated, I'll go back to working and all that annoying grown up stuff that has been pretty minimal here. Anyway just a reminder to myself: Be grateful for your experiences and surroundings NO MATTER where you are or what you're doing!
Stopped for this mommy daughter mirror pic. Thank goodness for mirrors when we don't have anyone to snap a pic haha
