London By Night →. July 13, 2010 · 5:54 pm.

London By Night | Becky Abroad
https://beckyabroad.wordpress.com/2010/07/17/london-by-night
Hat Tip →. July 17, 2010 · 7:30 pm. When the sun sets behind London’s mismatched skyline, the day is only just beginning. Londoners hurry to the Tube and buses before it’s too late. Shall we drink in Soho tonight, schmooze in Mayfair, or dance in Shoreditch? London is a city of quick decisions, leaving little time for thought or ponderance. Don’t mind if I do. With wine waning, where to now? The decision rests heavily, and only some doors lie open. As we drink out of tiki-themed glasses and move to the s...

Chapter Two | Becky Abroad
https://beckyabroad.wordpress.com/2010/11/16/chapter-two
November 16, 2010 · 12:09 am. I never drew this blog to a close. I didn’t want to say goodbye. As it turns out, I didn’t have to. Come Saturday, I’ll be on my way back to the U.K., on the verge of further adventures and even more new places. If this seems a little unexpected, I’m right there with you. The trip comes as a combination of luck (my parents having a really generous day) and good timing (thanks for studying abroad this semester, Kaleigh and Michelle. Filed under The Sequel. Tim Kaine and his w...

One Day More | Becky Abroad
https://beckyabroad.wordpress.com/2010/08/07/one-day-more
Chapter Two →. August 7, 2010 · 10:59 pm. Last night out. Last shopping trip at Camden Market. Last time getting caught in the rain. Last view of the river. Last Tube ride. Last uncomfortable walk down Edgware Road. Last day abroad. After a summer of firsts, I have been celebrating with a day of lasts. Tomorrow morning I’ll be on my way to San Diego, with a week of jet lag and wrap-up blog posts to follow. But, for the moment, I’m drinking in London to the very last drop. Cheers. Chapter Two →.

Packing Playlist | Becky Abroad
https://beckyabroad.wordpress.com//2010/05/15/packing-playlist
Estimated Time of Departure →. May 15, 2010 · 11:35 am. I want to be a light packer. I. To be a light packer. But if today proved anything, it’s that I still have a long way to go. Two hefty suitcases (read: over 50 pounds each) later, here I am. Achieving such a level of luggage obesity is by no means easy, even for a packaholic like myself. It took strategy, a full day of errands, a very patient boyfriend/family and a little bit of luck. Oh, and some great tunes to boot. 8211; B.o.B. 8211; Louis XIV.
