It’s finally here! My France Visa got approved yesterday, and I am all set to experience the Parisian summer this year! I have been dreaming about being in Paris for as long as I can remember, and am excited beyond words that this is finally happening.

Nervous as hell, and still dealing with major PC-internet issues, I will not be publishing any sparkle posts for another day or two! I promise to…

I have been tied down by ‘busy’ work, and my mom’s surgery added to the stress. I feel like I have a lot of catching-up to do on several fronts, and positive thinking is one of them!
