It’s Monday, August 6, and I leave for back for Hong Kong in a couple of hours. With two hours left of summer, I wanted to get these Spirit Lake summer candids posted. It was great summer. They always are. Especially when we get family time out at Spirit Lake. With my sister renting theContinue reading Cabin Candids—Spirit Lake Summer 2018
Summer time is coming to an end. My sister has started a new saying though: instead of “All good things must come to an end,” she declares, “All good things are wonderful.” And this summer has been just that–WONDERFUL! We started in Seattle and did our usual things like visiting Pike Place and going toContinue reading Summer Summer Summer Summer Time
I am so lucky that traveling is such a part of my life! Somehow Kevin and I made this incredible lifestyle that allows for travel during the school year and then some more during out summers. (I can say with confidence that being an international educator is one of the best jobs in the world–atContinue reading Can we move to Santa Barbara?
Oh Hey Vacay! Yes, it’s true: it’s been quiet over here on Kremb de la Kremb because I have been on vacation. I went to Santa Barbara with every intention of getting a post out while I was down there, but in the end…well, I enjoyed my vacation with my in-laws. We always have suchContinue reading Oh Hey Vacay!
I’m at my happy place: Spirit Lake, Idaho! Since we arrived it as been chilly, chilly, chilly–just as I predicted. Luckily, I have a wardrobe full of all my Idaho essentials like these slouchy Levi’s, my very, very old flannel shirt, and the perfectly worn in pair of flip flops. My hair has even startedContinue reading An Idaho 4th
Every summer since 1997, we spend a bit of time with Kevin’s folks in Seattle. And every summer, we always set aside one day to take a trip down to Pike Place. That means for 20 odd summers or so we’ve been visiting Pike Place every single time we go to Kevin’s home, and theContinue reading Pike Place with Babaji
Over our spring break holiday we went camping in Hong Kong. Wow! It was so fun, super relaxing, just a bit adventurous, and extremely beautiful. Hong Kong is known for being a bustling city–which by all means it is. Yet, there’s such a majestic, natural beauty to the area that many don’t know about. LetContinue reading Camping in Hong Kong
For my birthday, celebrated in Luang Prabang, Laos, we all went to cooking school. It was such fun, and of course very, very delicious. Any good cooking school starts with the local market–in which we had an extensive visit. It was so fascinating, super colorful, and full of smells, both good and bad! The actualContinue reading Cooking School in Luang Prabang
Happy International Women’s Day to all the women I know out there. I just took a jaunt through my Facebook photos…. of course after living 20+ years overseas, I’ve made an amazing amount of international women friends. I can name many girlfriends from each of the countries we’ve lives so far, so for this postContinue reading Happy International Women’s Day!
I’m lucky, very lucky. I’m lucky in travel. When Kevin and I met, travel was definitely a common denominator for both of us. We met in Italy–I always add to this statement that even though we met in Italy, my husband is not Italian. When we fell in love, it happened fast. After just oneContinue reading I’m Lucky! A Reflection on Travel
This is an attention notice for all travelers: you must check the dress code of the destination for where you are traveling! I don’t often get opinionated on Kremb de la Kremb. It’s not my nature to stir up arguments, but from what I just witnessed on my recent travels, I can’t help but writeContinue reading Attention Travelers: Check the Dresscode!
If you know me by now, it’s pretty obvious that I am a devoted Forever 21 shopper junkie. I may be twice as old as 21, but that sure the heck doesn’t stop me. Pretty much over 80% of my wardrobe very well may be from Forever 41–op 21! It used to be when IContinue reading I Love Hong Kong: Mong Kok
