Going from Switzerland (so expensive) to the states (cheaper) to Panama (cheapest) was a nice transition! However, today I'm leaving the land of beautiful beaches, great shopping, cheap service, and lazy mornings to head back to Florida to finally finish grad school. I'm terribly excited to see my family but will miss JB and our little family we've created over here. LOVE them so much.
Hope you all have a great Wednesday!! xoxox




















oh my god, gorgeous dress! can i hire you to go shopping for me?? ;)
ReplyDeletesafe travels!
Its simple amazing how the cost of living is so extremely different in each country! My mom is from Panama and tells me all the time how different the States are than back home from her. I've only been to Panama twice, but so want to go back really soon!! Hope you enjoyed your travels!
ReplyDeleteIs JB not coming with you?! When will you see him again? I hope for you the very safest travels and ofcourse, all the luck with grad school. Good for you!!
ReplyDeletehave a safe trip home and so much fun in grad school!!

ReplyDeleteare you being serious with these prices???! i am in shock. here's to secretly hoping the euro's market crashes overnight... (actually, no. i just realized i get paid in the euro.)
ReplyDeletewow- hard to leave the 4$ blow out... travel safe girl!

ReplyDeleteWow, now if only the prices for things could be like that here I would be all about the personal driver. I hate having to park when I go places!
Yay! You're coming home! can't wait to catch up one of these days - maybe I can visit your garden!! :) (I'd invite you to visit ours, I mean you still can, but the freeze hit it hard)

ReplyDeleteOooh your header changed again!
ReplyDeletePretty... Again! hehe
I can't believe those prices! That's absolutely nuts!
How much longer do you have until you're finished grad school? When is JB going to Florida!?
haha wow check out my curiosity! hehe
Your Panama adventures have really seemed amazing!
Congratulations on your recent anniversary by the way! :o)
I live in nanny for $200 a month??Well, sounds like that's where Ravi & I need to move when I start having babies!
ReplyDeleteCute blog! I am a brand new follower.
ReplyDeleteSafe trip home! xo
ReplyDeleteLOVE that hat on you...looking adorable, as always!
ReplyDeleteLiesl :)
woohoo! sounds fun! safe travels!
ReplyDeletePanama sounds a lot like Armenia, price wise. Blowouts for $2 that leave my hair looking better than the most expensive salon here (and without the fancy shmancy styling tools)....i'm thankful that $4 is a bargain for us, and not our monthly salary!
