High Heeled Traveler: April 2015
http://highheeledtraveler.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 30, 2015. Guest Posting on New Diplomat's Wife. I recently wrote a guest post for my friend Ania's series on her blog, The New Diplomat's Wife. Called Notes from the Field. The series was created to give you a glimpse into what it's like to live in different cities around the world. They are usually written from the perspective of a diplomat or diplomat's spouse (diplo-spouse as she calls it! And are really fun to read. And then get sucked in reading all the rest.

High Heeled Traveler: February 2015
http://highheeledtraveler.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 23, 2015. Digital sketch, Jamie Hurst. Now I'm used to hearing fighter jets fly by several times without notice. Luckily Noah sleeps right through them. I can't. It's not just the noise, I want to watch them fly. Every time I watch them I think that must be the coolest job ever. How amazing would it be to fly in a plane like that? The adrenaline rush you must get every time…. Remember Top Gun and how bad ass all those guys were in the 80s? Sunday, February 22, 2015. Burghead, Scotland, UK.

High Heeled Traveler: January 2015
http://highheeledtraveler.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 3, 2015. Noah and I in front of the Western Wall. We found the taxi line and started making our way to the cab indicated by a young female dispatcher. The taxi driver was an older gentleman, perhaps in his 70s, wearing a beanie just above his ears. He had reading glasses resting on his nose and a warm sweater buttoned up his chest. He reminded me of the main character in Up and I thought, should he be driving a car at night? 8220;Where you going? Western Wall, detail. After breakfast we...

High Heeled Traveler: Destination: Grand Mosque of Kuwait
http://highheeledtraveler.blogspot.com/2014/01/destination-grand-mosque-of-kuwait.html
Thursday, January 23, 2014. Destination: Grand Mosque of Kuwait. Until moving to Kuwait, I’d never been inside a mosque. I’ve only ever been to or toured Christian churches. With the Grand Mosque open for Westerns to explore, I was excited to see the similarities and differences between the worship spaces. Secondly, you will notice that the decorative elements in the space don’t include images of people, animals, plants, Mohammed, or Allah. This is because it is believed that attempting to repr...However...

High Heeled Traveler: March 2015
http://highheeledtraveler.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 30, 2015. When we decided to move to a dry country, at first I was devastated (naturally) but then I got really excited about moving to a place where tea and coffee were the drink du jour. I couldn't wait to try all the exotic brews, buy antique turkish coffee pitchers, and go to all the local shops. Little did I know that Starbucks, Caribou Coffee, etc. have taken over. What about plain black tea? Friday, March 27, 2015. And the second was " What Foreplay for Moms Really Looks Like. Both p...

High Heeled Traveler: November 2014
http://highheeledtraveler.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 5, 2014. Halloween: A DIY Journey. A fashion designer and former Project Runway winner (in case you didn’t know). Throughout the tutorial he used encouraging words and phrases like, “simply” “your local craft store” “easily” “just like that” and “hot glue”. This was it! I made a shopping list based on this simple and easy no sew project as promised to me by Martha and Christian. In theory, sewing isn’t really complicated. Once I got into it, I understood what I was doing and...WHY why...

High Heeled Traveler: September 2014
http://highheeledtraveler.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 19, 2014. Over the past (almost) six months I have had a lot of time to quietly think as I watch Noah play, nurse, or sleep. I’ve been able to consider where I want this to go and further where I want my life to go. What does High Heeled Traveler mean? So, who’s with me? Are you ready for a new chapter?

High Heeled Traveler: Highland Spirit Bed & Breakfast, Dufftown, Scotland, UK
http://highheeledtraveler.blogspot.com/2015/04/highland-spirit-bed-breakfast-dufftown.html
Thursday, April 9, 2015. Highland Spirit Bed and Breakfast, Dufftown, Scotland, UK. But we didn't go to Scotland for the whisky. Well okay we did, but it wasn't the only attraction. Several years ago friends of ours, Alistair and Karen, retired from their day jobs to pursue their dream of owning and running a bed and breakfast. They settled on the town of Dufftown and found a beautiful 19th century home which is now the Highland Spirit Bed and Breakfast. When we arrived at the Highland Spirit our friends...
