Sarah Chao does Europe: More Reflecting and such
http://europeanchaos.blogspot.com/2011/02/more-reflecting-and-such.html
Sarah Chao does Europe. Five Months in Russia, Italy, France, Germany, Belgium, and The Netherlands. Friday, February 4, 2011. More Reflecting and such. So I realize that in my last post I sound like I'm channeling Alanis Morisette, and I know it just sounds weird, but I'll leave it up there for posterity. Amsterdam was really great, despite my emotional awkwardness. I am now back in the good ol' U S of A, and I am happy as a clam! I feel pretty accomplished, and ready to go back to Olaf. I say it as a j...

Sarah Chao does Europe. Five Months in Russia, Italy, France, Germany, Belgium, and The Netherlands. Sunday, November 28, 2010. So last week I was asked to perform in a concert for Russian students - - I sang some Christina Aguilera (not by choice, I remind you) and wore my hot new dress- - see the last photo. I didn't take any of these, but people have been asking to see concert pics, so I'll re-post them. Thanks to Dmitry, the photographer at the concert! Saturday, November 27, 2010. Do you give gifts?

Sarah Chao does Europe: Amsterdam?

Sarah Chao does Europe. Five Months in Russia, Italy, France, Germany, Belgium, and The Netherlands. Tuesday, February 1, 2011. The other day I walked into a Dutch Delft-ware shop to look at the ceramics, and I talked to the shopkeeper about the clay bodies and the history of Delftware. Did you know that although delftware pieces always have a white base, they are not made from porcelain? Just an opaque white glaze. I just made half a butternut squash for dinner, baked with butter and cane sugar (they do...

Sarah Chao does Europe. Five Months in Russia, Italy, France, Germany, Belgium, and The Netherlands. Sunday, August 22, 2010. So, lots of people have been confused about where I will be in Russia - - It's not a small country, you know (it spans over 11 time zones). So I had a crazy great idea: I'll post a map of where I'll be! First stop: Veliky Novgorod (Великий Новгород). That's all for now! Saturday, August 14, 2010. Anticipation, Anxiety, etc. No, I'm not in Russia yet. but I leave in 17 days! Thursd...

Sarah Chao does Europe. Five Months in Russia, Italy, France, Germany, Belgium, and The Netherlands. Saturday, September 25, 2010. No matter where you go (Moscow, St. Petersburg, Novgorod, etc.) Russia is full of old churches, cathedrals, and monasteries. Here's something you may not know: I LOVE them all! It's so amazing that there is history EVERYWHERE in this town, dating back to the first century! So now, children: Settle down, and listen to my tale. Seeing some Onion domes in the distance, we headed...

Moscow and The Golden Ring (or, The Onion-Dome Obsession Tour Extravaganza! Slava Bogu (Thank God) for Vacation. For the past ten days I've been traveling, and I wish I could write a novel here for every day of it because it was SO fantastic! But you'll have to settle with a summary because I'm lazy :).

http://europeanchaos.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Sarah Chao does Europe. Five Months in Russia, Italy, France, Germany, Belgium, and The Netherlands. Monday, January 31, 2011. Alright, so I'm not in Belgium anymore, but I'll tell you about it now, is that ok? Could come pick me up. I went on a nice walk, and had some tea, which I tried to order in French and soon learned that English was the way to go. Good news, because my French is still sub-par if you ask me. Next up - - Amsterdam! Sunday, January 30, 2011. The first step: Cuisine. I came in wit...
