Complete in Cinque Terre

Google Cinque Terre

It is likely to be one of the most beautiful places on this earth. Go on a hike here and you'll find yourself snapping a photo every five steps, you just can't stop. I don't think I have seen anything in Italy yet that has compared...and I've seen some pretty amazing and beautiful places.

I do not have time to blog right now and quite honestly, I wouldn't even know where to begin if I did have the time...I have had another two wickedly fun/inspiring/amazing days with my sisters Courtney and Lauren. How do you capture those kind of times in a blog?

I will tell you that my first night here: Courtney, Lauren, myself and three other women from the hostel sat with our bare feet dangling and pants rolled up, drinking wine, sharing cheese and chocolate, and watching the sunset from a cliff. Nothing could have made that moment better and I felt more happy and complete right then and there than I think I ever have been before. One of the other girls said "now this would be perfect if only there were hot men here" and she seriously meant it. Amazing how I was once a woman who was so co-dependent on men that I would have said the same thing....knowing that I've come full circle and away from that kind of mentality--it is extremely liberating.

My life is complete because of me. This is what annouce to the world from beautiful Cinque Terre!!!

The really fun crazy stories about skinny dipping in the ocean (in February) and hitchhiking...well those will come later for sure! LOL
