Short and Sweet. Updates from Abroad.

Whoah. I can't even convey how quickly the time is flying here. It feels like we've been here for years and seconds all at the same time.

Last weekend was spent in Switzerland, and I absolutely adored it. Every single second. The scenery was gorgeous, the pace was slow, and the prices were...high? (Seriously, 13 Francs for a McDonald's meal might be a bit much.)

Tomorrow we are heading out of town again. This time it's a night train taking us to Dresden, Germany. From there, we'll hit up Berlin and then head over to Prague.

The trip is more than halfway over and I'm equally dreading and anticipating the end. Home will be beautiful, but a piece of my heart will definitely be staying in Europe.

God has been SO incredibly gracious, and my relationship with Him grows a little bit each day. I'm trying desperately to keep my eyes open to what He has to teach me, and I would need a thousand blog posts to try and explain how He's changed me thus far.

A few blessings from the past week: a lovely friendship I never would have expected, money for school in the fall, safe travel to and from Switzerland, comfort during stressful times, a sunny day in Vienna.

Things that have stolen my heart....
The couple that runs a little food shop down the street (KOC). They are so incredibly beautiful, inside and out. They greet us with smiles (and sometimes cookies) every time we go in there, and the kebab sandwich is the best thing I've ever tasted.

Anyways. It's late. I'm tired. Hopefully more blogging to come soon :) Love and miss you all.
