Travel Blog

So it seems I’ve gone from a bad blogger to an even worse blogger. It’s months and years between posts now. I’m sorry to everyone who follows me. I’m currently in “upstate” New York working for a family comprised of a single mom and two adolescents. I have also recently re-enrolled in school, this time at Dutchess Community College in Poughkeepsie, NY. Paralegal Studies.

Okay, now for the real reason I’m writing: I have an informational speech coming up for my public speaking class and my topic is “Traveling on a Budget”. I’ve spent nearly a decade traveling on a budget, but I want to hear the ideas and stories from everyone else. What did YOU do to get around for cheap? Room/Board, working, adventures, etc. Who did you meet? I want it all… or at least what you’re willing to share, even pictures.

I’ll even make some more posts about what’s been happening in my travel/nerdy world soon.

Thanks and lots of love,

Sara!! 🙂

Update!! Yes, I’m still alive!!

Well, he was a total bust. After 8 months and a really nice engagement ring, he cheated. It’s over. I’m done. I’m leaving NY and heading back to Texas. I’ll be there for about a month and a half before I fly out for a new family in Prague. Yes, as in Prague, Czech Republic. I found a family that looks great on aupair-world.net. My request for another visa was denied. Now I can only go back just to visit. I miss all my friends like Sarah, Luke, and Lili. I also miss my host family. The twins are getting bigger and bigger and it hasn’t even been that long. I miss all my kids, but new adventures await. Sorry mom, but I don’t get homesick, lol. So, hopefully be the end of November I’ll be living in a small town outside of Prague, called Jesenice. Wish me luck and keep following this blog. I’m hoping to get permission from my new host mom to document the next year or two!! 🙂
