Here I go again! It’s been 12 years since I’ve posted anything. Life has been busy, exciting, exhausting and full of love!! Here are the highlights!
2013: Living the farm life in Bergen up at Baugtveit with Isra

2015: We were in Colorado, renting a unique house down the street from my parents. We were engaged in February and married March 12. Isra got his green card and a job translating at a company called SDL. I was trying to start a company called “CrayonCash”, trying to raise money for schools. We met our friends also from Spain, Jonny and Maria.
2016: We continued living the good life. Paying, traveling and working. I accepted a job at Jewish Family Services, working with refugee kids as a school based therapist. I worked there A’s an intern in grad school and it was very fun to be back.
