bon voyage

After the euphoric vespa tour, my new friend Loralee and I trained it down to Rome. I sat and wrote postcards and listened to Loralee’s spectacular life and woes. Although she looked mid twenties, she had ten years on her look. She worked in healthcare nonprofits specializing in international health. Loralee held a graduate degree in public health and previously served in both Americorps and the Peace Corp. We discussed everything from exes to our faith. I found a kindred spirit in Loralee. It was the most enjoyable travelling experience I can recall.
