I’m not sick. I am feeling great. I’ve had an epiphany about my move abroad. I have officially decided on a country. And that country is.., NO COUNTRY! The new, new, new, new, new, new, new, NEW plan is be a nomad. Start at your favorite Paris hotel the K+K in the seventh, and then figure our a place to plop down for a month or two. Then got to Croatia or Prague or Istanbul for a couple of weeks and come back to Barcelona, or Paros or Sienna or Cairo or Dubai or Zurich. Then plop over to some other non EU country for a couple of weeks and come back.
When I was raised in Libya, I knew that we had to leave every so often for our visas. I didn’t understand what a visa was at the time. I just knew that my mom would tell my dad we had to “go everywhere” because we were going home at the end of his one year contract. So we literally went to Europe and Greece and Lebanon and Tunis for like ten minute each every time. Because mother wanted to go back to the US ASAP. But the money was good so we kept on staying for five years.
I was raised a nomad. I shall die a nomad in some foreign country. Perhaps if I am lucky it will be under some old European man with a pot belly who proudly wears his speedo to the beach.
Problem solved. Except, you know. Please send money. And by please send money I mean keep reading here. Because I will keep writing. But if you don’t like my whiney posts about me, this might be a good time to bail. And I don’t blame you.
But yeah, I am calling in sick. I think Pop Culture Kelly is going to write a Married to Med recap for you tonight. I probably won’t get that up until tomorrow, or like 3 am. I am in a very weird sleep cycle. For now, I am going to feed Banjo and drink my merlot Kumbucha cocktails.
Love you all! Talk amongst yourselves. That is code for OPEN FORUM but only for GOOD THINGS! Back soon.
PS I searched my photos for “happy” and these were two that came up.
I’m happy for you ❤️
Can’t wait to read all about your nomadic life!
Ditto! Absolutely will be checking in often to read about your adventures. I don’t have enough good words to describe Zurich. And Salzburg, and Ulm, etc. Sip a beer by the Constanzee! Your life will evolve into something dynamic.
Since we planted a damn orchard, and spouse wants to keep working for a bit, we are pretend nomads. As much travel as we can pack in while kids are around to care for the dogs, chickens, and fish. And it is evolving.
It is exhilarating to let loose of the sheer f*ck-ton of stuff and say “we wander”.
Love your idea. It brings me back to my junior year in college when I traded Maine for Rome! I also had the Eurail pass every American student gets while in Europe so I skipped class every Friday (and honestly most Monday’s because it was just pass/fail and had no impact on my GPA) and just went to the train station and we would just pick a train off the board and there we would go. I remember thinking I would travel forever. Sadly, I haven’t been to Europe since. So thank you for reminding me of a time when I could quite literally go anywhere! I had the time of my life in Italy, Greece, France, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Netherlands, Belgium, and the Czech Republic. I love your idea and want to be just like you. Half the fun (okay, probably less than half) is daydreaming about it and planning. Enjoy your dream!!
I have a friend who lives like that now and he loves it. He has tens of rental properties in Southern CA that are managed by someone else so he just collects the cash and travels all over never staying long in any one place but repeat visiting often. I think I would like to do that but with a home base where I am now. That would be ideal really.
This actually sounds awesome.
I guess I do it to a certain extent, but it’s on a much smaller scale. In past relationships, I “spent the night” with my significant other, and that “night” would turn into several because it felt good to get away from the house for a while and experience a different kind of life. And when the shit inevitably hit the fan there, I knew I could always return home.
In a sense, it’s a continuation of my childhood… But since you want us to keep it positive, I won’t say anything else about that.
More recently, I’ve made it more of a habit of going back and forth between my Vegas home and my dad’s home in OC. And when we can, my dad and I will leave his house on extended road trips (like we did in July).
Sometimes, it just feels right to move around and avoid getting stuck at the same place all the time. Hopefully one day, I can take it further by going farther. You definitely give me #LifeGoals when you describe a glamorous life of nonstop international travel. I don’t even need the fancy hotels (though I certainly won’t turn them down!): As long as it’s a nice Airbnb, I can use that as a good “base camp” to wander around and explore.
My issues are not having a place to call home. I’m the youngest of my siblings by a couple of decades, to one decade. Perhaps in part because I wasn’t raised around them our relationships while good are not what I consider close. But their relationships with each other are not either. So who knows why. But I’ll be out there doing crazy Tamara all alone. We might need to set up some sort of get Tamara out of jail GoFundMe to have on standby. lol kidding, I think..
Also, I have blogged here from Paris before and just never told you and that worked fine. But I dunno if it will work for all countries I guess it will. I think that it is just TV channels and such I won’t be able to access online.
Anyway, hopefully this is years in the future. I’ll be here as long as Banjo is,
And I love the idea of just going to the train station with no plan and picking the next train to wherever, That said, when I went to Romania the trains were full of gypsies and scammers and the trains were really long and they did not always name the stop in any language and you could not see the name of the station until after you left. It was not the romantic thing I pictured. lol. But I loved the trip even if I was a bit afraid of the gypsies.
I also hired a driver who took me to all the Dracula stuff . One night I had him take me to the casino. He was a young kid who could have been a Calvin Klein model. I would always yell at him to slow down, I fed him when I stopped to eat. Anyway, so I was at this casino, drunk and betting and gave him $100 to bet with. No, I am not rich I but I get drunk and give away money, THIS IS WHY I SHOULD STAY IN THE HOUSE but even then I donate money to charities and randomly… anyway. I was having fun. But I also wears a large collection of gold bangles, It’s a Libyan thing, I never take them off. So my Calvin Klein model eventually ushered mt fat old lady ass to the car. LOL. He refused to gamble because it was A LOT of money to him. So I bought him a few chips and MADE him gamble. I don’t recall if he won or not. I do recall getting a call from the casino telling me that they would send a car for me at any time If I wanted to return. I was a “high roller” school teacher at the time. I’m pretty sure I left close to even. But American dollars go a long way in Romania, And My Calvin Klein model seemed very nervous that were were even there,
I watch Bravo on Sling. I wonder if you could get it overseas? Jealous btw. This my dream.
Your driver/gambling story literally just made my day as I have done similar things like this years ago and I had forgotten. Thanks for that Tamara! You do you-whatever that looks like.
I love your idea, Tamara. That sounds so exciting to travel from one exotic locale to another. You could start a whole new travel-related website/blog where you (snarkily) review each destination you visit. You could also be an Instagram influencer and have your European lover take selfies of you hanging off cliffs and moving trains. So many possibilities! ?
That is a GREAT plan! I admire your decision to go anywhere you feel like exploring. Safe travels and be well.
TT, just be happy. Whatever, where ever that is. Xo
That sounds like the best plan!!
OMG. I just GAVE AWAY my HARDBACK COPY of I Know Why The Cage Bird Sings. My kid who does my lawn, not the meth heads I think they are all in jail, came buy because he is trimming some hedges a few houses down and wanted an extension cord. From I dunno my house to that house? It didn’t make any sense. He is trying to make some money because a girl from Ohio is in town. So I gave him twenty bucks for his date. Oddly I don’t have a super long extension cord. And because drunk, i started talking to him while he politely listened. the last time he was here I gave him a book. It was sort of heavy reading. Henry Louis Gates may have been a bit too much for him.
Then I started talking to him about books. Because kid, reading teacher. wine. Always educating. AND I GAVE HIM MY VINTAGE COPY OF I KNOW WHY THE CAGED BIRD SINGS! That boy is going to get a pop quiz before his next job. In fact His next job may be reading for an hour.
HE HAD NO IDEA WHO MAYA ANGELOU WAS. He asked “Do they teach this in school? Because I have never heard of this!”
I kinda wish I had given him forty dollars if he walks past I’ll give him another twenty. He’s a good kid. Who DOES NOT KNOW WHO MAYA ANGELOU IS. My soul aches.
Also, I need to stop giving away money when I am drunk. I barely have a damn job of my own. It’s an obsession. And it notoriously ends badly,
I know about giving money away while drunk. Someone needs it before me.
I do it because I am blessed with someone who spoils me. I honestly can’t do enough tp pay it forward to equal what someone who cares about me for no reason feels like. I am trying to share not the money, but the someone on the planet cares for me on a consistent basis feeling over years who has never even met me (that’s probably why) makes me feel cared for. I could not possibly pay it that feeling forward enough.
I need to stop shopping on the internet when drunk. My budget is unlimited… until the next day.
I would love to travel the world and housesit for people but I’m going to Germany in two weeks so I can’t complain.
Love your idea.
I drunk donate a lot also. My entire Instagram feed is animal rescues. My favorite is Goats of Anarchy.
I wear an armful of silver bracelets and have since I was in my teens. Probably 30 or so bangles.
Funny! Henry Louis Gates spoke at my college graduation in the 90’s. Long before his famous issue with the Cambridge, MA police! I suspect we have a lot in common.
About the extension cord: Did he just want to plug it in at the house down the street while he did their hedges? Like maybe the trimmer’s cord was short, and an extension cord would give him more range in their yard.
Once I let someone borrow my worn, underlined copy of Anne Frank: Diary of a Young Girl and I never got it back. It crushed me because I trusted a fellow book lover with my favorite book and they could never find it to return it to me. It is a big deal to let your favorite book out of your hands!
Thanks for understanding. I don’t regret it. If he reads it, it will all be worth it. He’s a teenager in a bad neighborhood who is always walking around … like … well I hope I am giving him more than a book, I hope I am giving him…HOPE. I kind of want to send him to community college. He’s a very respectable young man in a hood where that is a rare thing. BTW I think he killed my entire front yard by cutting it so low followed by a drought. He has no future in landscaping. lol.
I promise you that one day he will read it! I can feel it, and he’ll be all the better for it. I love that book! My daughter and I pass it back and forth. We reread books we really love. Happy travels, Tamara!
Yes, nomad is good. I did it by sailboat & motorhome for years & loved it. I would be doing it again now except last year I married a sexy man who’s been to almost every country in the world multiple times & now just wants to go to Florida. I need to stay where the sex is readily available. TT, do you subscribe to Nomadic Matt? He is FAB about neat odd spots cheap & schedules meet ups around the world. You know I love Costa Rica so much I don’t even know how many times I’ve visited, & Iceland is the best way to get to Europe these days except for those $599 all-you-can-eat for 3 weeks repositioning cruise ship deals. (I can’t live at home that long for $599.). Good thing: Just finished book 2 of the Red Sparrow Trilogy, & hope to delve into book 3 later tonight. Fly Boy, who for a time had a price on his head by the Russkies, recommended the series for its authenticity.
Thanks Grandma, I ll borrow your tips and book suggestion for TT also. What a interesting life you’ve led.
Hypothetically speaking, if I didn’t pay taxes…
and also, I need more Miz Grandma in my life. I miss my mama and need a virtual one.
That said, we all know why you go to Costa Rica~ lol
“Need to stay where the sex is readily available.” I love you MizGrandma!
I mean. SHE is my inspiration.
I could use some of that readily available in my life, too!
One wonders but would never be so presumptuous as to ask unless one was in front of me, to what one might be referring to here, readily available sex, or inspiration? It occurs to me one can have the second without the first, but the first sort of inspires the second does it not? But speaking as an inveterate He-Ho that doesn’t necessarily follow which is why I’m kind of wondering.
I’m a retired she-ho, aspiring (inspired to) to regain pre retirement status.
In my mind, both situations you question seem like yes answers and explains why I love MizGrandma and aspire to all things her, she has the yes to the yes!
TT, you should have been there for our Thai restaurant lunch today. Fly Boy told me that since he can no longer kill people he’s had to find a new definition for Special Ops & it is making me happy. This afternoon he bought me a new laptop because mine had a ladylike faint over the weekend. I can’t wait to see what he has in store for tonight.
I just love when you post. There always is something so apropos that reminds me to keep hanging on.
This is great TT, I’m a regular reader (minimal commentator) and I really enjoy your site. I’d enjoy reading about your travels ?
Same here Bea!
I enjoy listening to H.L.Gates voice. In so many ways he would be the ideal man to grow old with. You gave me good encouragement before I traveled alone to Thailand, I was alone even more than I expected. It was great not catering to another persons hungry time, sleep time or where to go, Rode their fast tram in the wrong direction a few times but I got off in places I never heard of and sincerely had the best of time. Adventure never lost. I still miss a snuggle buddy thou. From reading blogs from people that are traveling as you want now, a wee bit of planning does save you money. How fun for you with the option to stay as long as you are interested.
Oh, I’m thrilled for you. I have grown kids and a grandkid and dogs, and I long to just GO, You go and let me live vicariously!
4Paz, do not let those things stop you. When I ran away to sea at 49, I had similar encumbrances–2 grown children, 3 grandchildren & 2 bald cats. When I discovered the cats got deathly seasick I boarded them out with a kitty loving nephew & either picked them up on my annual 3 month visit to the U.S. or flew them to me then. I visited the grandkids at the same time, & when the older ones were 9 & 14 I flew them back to Panama for a month to transit the canal on our sailboat & then cruise the San Blas Islands with us. We kept in frequent communication with them & sent them small gifts, letters & cards along the way. They were never without grandparent love & attention, & they were proud of their adventuring grandparents & the t-shirts from exotic places they received for their birthdays. Go for it, girl, & remember my motto, No Regrets!
That sounds like a fantastic ex-patriot plan!
Sound pretty good to me TT!! Go for it, and blog away, we’ll all be reading and living vicariously thru you!! Xx
You know you’re girl PCK is going to write a killer recap! Enjoy your time TT ❤️❤️
I am looking forward to your recap! So much has happened and I am excited to read your take on everything.
Thank you La! It was soooooo freakin good! I am so pumped about the season. Let me know what you think when it’s posted! 😉
I have always Luv’d to travel. I was born & raised in NYC but went to college in the Caribbean! I traveled to Europe after college for a long time! I even met the Pope John Paul II .That was awesome, some very rich Brit I met ran in those circles! Go figure he’s a lawyer & from a very influential family in Italy. Venice was spectacular, Paris unforgettable, Spain fun especially at nite! The list goes on & on! The best time of my life! I’ve been to the Islands of Curacao, etc. I met a guy I married & moved to Germany and had my daughters there! Didn’t want to come back bc it was like a dream! However our families hadn’t met our children!
We still travel & meet interesting people & places! I’ll stop boring you. My point enjoy your journey I know yours is just starting! ???
Stay safe & positive! ?
Sometimes my bf and I think about (once we retire) buying an RV and traveling the states. We aren’t parents so we don’t have that to think about, but I am curious as to how we would get our mail. Bc the government has to have an address, right?
Not sure why you would need mail. we have the Internet for that. And I plan to offshore my buisness and never come back. But I don’t have much extended family.
Liz I’ve heard you can register an RV in Montana which then counts as an address, you could then have your mail sent to a UPS type store and have it forwarded to wherever you happen to be staying.
Liz P – Have you ever read “Travels with Charley” by John Steinbeck? I highly recommend it.
Establish your residency in a state that does not have a state income tax (I’ve used both Texas & Florida). Easy to do using a mail forwarding company. The best one I’ve found is in Green Cove Springs FL, though I’ve forgotten the name. They will forward mail at regular intervals. I used to have bills paid, too, but now that isn’t necessary with bank bill paying services online from anyplace & automatic payments.
Do you have to pay US income tax when you live abroad like that? I don’t know how such things work. You’d think whatever country you’re in would want you to pay their taxes. I guess you pay VAT in countries that have that when you purchase things. But I’m curious about US income tax.
Yes, US citizens are required to pay tax on their income no matter which country that income is earned in.
I can tell you that much!
If your are working for a foreign corporation you don’t have to pay taxes if you make less that $103,000…. I shall leave it at that #offfshoreIncorporation
So I’m going left field. I found that Karen Huger has a website for La Dame. The roll on is sold out. It does not describe the scent at all. I can’t believe people bought it not knowing if it’s floral, fruity, musky or woodsy. I would never purchase a perfume not knowing how it smells. Hopefully she gets someone better to overhaul her website.
I don’t know anything, I also need a lady sitter during down time (at work I’m 100% ok, except when I’m not) but clinically cynical here is wondering how many roller balls she had to begin with to “sell out” of…odd La Dame’s scent is not described, really odd! I’ll probably google sometime…not tonight, I’m off for a few hours…lol.
I actually don’t dislike Karen but HWs are historically notorious failing at or detailing their new business ventures that never get off the ground.
See, your obsession with L’domme La dame whatever makes me want to by roller balls for everyone. LOL. I’m an exceeding lonely person and one person who I have never met gives me such joy. I just keep trying to pay it forward.
Not to be a downer, but I sort of adopted a homeless guy in the hood who had a female pitbull named Bubba. I called her Bubbles. Because who calls a female Bubba. I took him to the grocery store once for whatever he wanted. I had to force him to let me. He had no teeth so I kept making inappropriate suggestions because I am an idiot.
He and BUBBLES, DAMMIT used to hang out in front of this weird store that I really don’t understand. Anyway, there has been one of those creepy memorials in that spot lately.
🙁
It sounds like you called in WELL today. The SF Chronicle once ran a piece that started “I called in well today,” then went on about all the reasons to stay home when you are feeling particularly well and not go to work and get “sick.”
If you were to travel, do you really want to recap reality TV? I think you may want to call in well when there are episodes like the Traingate so you could STAY well. If you were to do your Tamara Travels, it would be a travels report like no one else’s. You could be the lady version of Parts Unknown.
Think of all the weird delicious cocktails you could drink. And the toasts in every country. Adding to your armful of bracelets… endless adventure.
Well, I am still going to have sources and I am still going to be obsessed with reality TV and I am still going to be obsessed with all of you. I don’t do so good with 3d relationships but I will hopefully always have you guys.
Proud of you ! xo Marc
Love you my twin. You better come visit me in some exotic local! Drinks are on YOU. 🙂
Sounds like a fun and good plan. Enjoy your life !! We will be here to read all about it. xo
You go, Woman! We’ll all live vicariously through you. ? Climb every mountain, Ford every stream, Follow every rainbow, ‘Till you find your dream…?
Oh great now I’ve got a mental image of TT as a Benedictine Novice in an an Austrian Abbey in the suburbs of Atlanta.
TT and her magical travelling Van Trapp family (followers)…
Y’all I woke up in a scary place with 45 calling Chrissy Teagan a foul mouthed bitch. The world has gone mad. And y’all are making me feel safe again. Thanks. I’ve done a great job of blocking all the assholes an keeping all the suckups… errr good people lol
Filling out an application for dual citizenship in Italy the minute I get home from vacay. Encouraging kids to check out Canada.
Can you imagine Obama sending an nasty, angry tweet to Christy? I like Christy but she’s a tv personality which is a step above a spokesmodel from The Price is Right. Why does the president know who she is or care in the slightest what she thinks. The narcissism runs so deep….meh.
Yes!! Stop giving away money!! It is sometimes bewildering to the recipient. Don’t ask me how I know this. And double yes, we would read ANYTHING you wrote about!! Anyway I would. I would love to hear of your travels, nomadic and otherwise. Let us live vicariously through you!! I almost moved to Asheville when I divorced, but 3 kids, grandkids, etc. idk. Still wondering if I should have. Go little bird, GO!! Be happy. It’s not what you do that you regret, it’s what you don’t. Love ya ?
I can’t wait to live vicariously through your journeys and updates! So happy that you’re excited ??????✈?
Follow your heart and your dream, TT!! I would absolutely love to be a nomad!! The furthest I’ve been, sadly, is Maui and Hawaii, sadly, just one trip. Now, I’m too old, have too many medical issues, and lack the funds to do so – do it while you are young and still can, TT!!! Please let us all live vicariously through your travel stories too!!!
JillyAnne, a lot of people NEVER get to Hawaii or Maui…I am jelly, I’ve never been to Maui! Stay well, Costa Rica…? Just a thought.
Y’all traveling is only as expensive as you make it! You can always go somewhere. I wish I had traveled to Canada more. don’t make me drunk buy you tickets.
Brilliant! ❤️
Wendy Williams on WWHL gave Karen H.’s perfume a good review. She liked that it was light, not a heavy “old lady” perfume. No description of what it SMELLED like, though.
I proudly wear Estee Lauder Youth Dew. Its what my grandmother wore it is what my mama wore and every man I have ever fucked proclaimed to like it.
But an old friend. And by old friend I mean she was old and I was her friend before the current insane person got into office, would mock me for that. I stand by my scent.
When I was in my twenties I used to wear Lagerfeld because I loved the heavy non-floral scent of it, and I also used to wear grey flannel because on me it smelled pretty gosh darn good, and the thing about that scent is it changes depending on the person wearing it, I know weird right, but true, and then Joop, I still love the scent of Joop, the first time I smelled it I stopped the guy wearing it and demanded to know what he was wearing, but of all of the scent’s I’ve ever worn the one thing guys most commented on loving….Dove soap. I kid you not. Consistently guys loved the clean scent of it.
Lagerfield and Paco Rabonne On men used to make me weak in the knees. I still have half a bottle of KL, in my favorite bottle, modeled after Oncle Karl’s fan. For daytime, I wear Amazing Grace by Philosophy; it is clean and fresh, not overpowering. It doesn’t SMELL like it, but it is the equivalent of baby powder for grown women. Pure Ylang-ylang oil used to drive men crazy! I still love Opium and the bottles and I would love to smell Ma Griffe again. A friend’s sophisticated mother wore it 50 years ago. The others I want to (barely) sniff are from a perfume museum in Paris — one redolent of tobacco smoke and violets, the other of sperm. And then we have Cuntly, what an ex-boyfriend used to describe the scent worn by bitchy old blue hairs.
But what did you wear that drove the gentlemen folk cray-cray Nanette?
It was the ylang ylang oil from the (American) Body Shop. Josh & Brett of Beekman 1802 call their ylang ylang-scented products “sexy, sexy time,” so I guess I was onto something. I cannot remember what the American Body Shop had to rename itself. The stores are in many malls with the new name.
I forgot to add another thing I learned from the Beekman Boys: Vanilla is the scent that most stimulates the male sex drive. (And I like it too!) was
I bought a bottle of MaGriffe once but I think it was a fake…it just doesnt smell like it was described. My fav and constant go to is 4711 cologne especially in the summer. It is a unisex cologne and just wonderful and fresh. I keep a huge bottle in the fridge and just splash it on. in the winter I like kiehl musk oil. Aramis on Men makes me weak in the knees. I have others I like…Prada lilac is a pretty smell. I like Youth dew also for the winter.
Ohh emmm geee. I haven’t heard of 4711 in forever. It’s what my dad always wore. Caswell Massey 4711. Whenever I smell it I think of him. Thanks for the heartwarming memory. ? I miss him so much.
Because I wake up every night about 2a.m., I just finished watching Wendy Williams on WWHL. Dare I say, “WW is BACK!” Better than in forever. Looked great, present. More … Andy said TamraSue said she would consider leaving RHOC if she were demoted to friend. Best idea besides firing her. Demote, film, never air. Kyle Richards got the mazel for her NY fashion debut. Faye Resnick, Erica, Denise, Teddi and Rinna walked. It looks like California casual BH poolside glam, from what I saw. Their makeup looked glam but not over the top, better than reunion. The RHOP reunion dresses look like Frederick’s of Hollywood bridal, the discount side of the label. Ben Robinson and Joao on Monday night.
My Dad always told me I was a gypsy at heart because staying one place drives me up a wall. My sons and I moved 11 times in 10 years and I love it! You don’t accumulate crap when you move around. I have been where I am since 1998 and I am sick of it. I dreamed of the day I could buy an RV and just move on when I felt like it. I found the job a few years ago, I work totally online so as long as I have internet I can work. Now just to wait out my sons troubles, almost there and then buy the RV and I’m outta here! 6 grand kids and be picked up and stay with me anytime.
I did the nomadic thing almost my whole life. Too old and not as bendable and fluid as I used to be so hubby and I have chosen to stay put for retirement. Sure wish it could be outside the U.S. but that’s not looking good.
We shall live vicariously through you, TT!
Happy Trails wherever you wander…
<3
Wow this sounds so exciting!! I love reading your general musings about your life and your past.
I’m thinking of retiring in another country so I’ll be reading with great interest!!
Good for you Tamara!! France is my favorite place in the world – great starting point! If you end up starting in Paris – the chocolate tart and creme brulee macarons at Jean Paul Hevin in 1eme off of Rue St Honore are heavenly indeed. I also highly recommend checking out Talloires close to Annecy on Lake Annecy if you haven’t- such a gem, absolutely breathtaking little village. I look forward to reading about your nomadic adventures abroad.
Your post reminded me that a few years ago I talked my best friend into taking a chocolate walking tour of Paris with me. Ooh la la!
I can’t wait to see the world through your eyes. I’ve been several country’s in Europe but not anywhere else. Bucket list!
I need more info on the merlot kombutcha cocktail please. Sounds horrific but maybe it works?
This so awesome!
I hope you had a wonderful day filled with mimosas!
What are you doing with your house?
TT, I would love to follow your travels, so blog away! What I love most about this blog is how you weave stories of your life within the posts. And I’ve been reading about Banjo since forever, so as long as this site is live, I will be here.❤️
There’s a guy called Mario who lives on Royal Caribbean cruise ships. He stays on the same one for months at a time and then switches to the next one. He’s amassed so many status points that he hardly pays for anything. It’s quite amazing.
I always run into the same people whenever I do a transatlantic run on Royal Caribbean. We always form a daily knitting group. There’s a retired Army doc that spends her entire retirement check cruising because her husband makes enough money to support the family. She’s a GREAT knitter & has a terrific sense of humor.
For the most part, I do not like traveling with people. BUT I WANT TO GO ONN A CRUISE WITH YOU! But why are we doing Royal Caribbean? I am wanting to do a river cruise in Europe.
Also, what do you mean by Transatlantic? I could take a cruise to Europe? Why haven’t I considered this? OTOH I am prone to seasickness so that might be a nightmare. Where do you cruise to and from?
I’m very happy for you, Tamara! It must be a good feeling to have figured out your plan of action. Did you decide what to do with the house? I, of course, would love to still read about Bravo shows, but I would also love to read about your travels. And your posts would give the real juice and not just the magazine version of a place.
Sienna !!!!’n
