<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "roboto" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Bosnia was quite the country to explore. We sat, packed in our rental vehicle, among the mountains of Dubrovnik anxiously awaiting to cross the border from Croatia into Bosnia. After a long wait followed by a quick passport check and roll call, we were allowed in. The first hour of the journey was along gravel path beside a military camp, tall fencing topped with barbed wire. The drive eventually led us through beautiful mountains and grassy valleys speckled with stone homes. Eventually we made it to the beautiful historic city of Mostar.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "roboto" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Mostar is located in the Herzegovina region of Bosnia & Herzegovina. It started off as a small town on a trading route between the Adriatic Coast and central Bosnia. We explored the area around the famous Mostar bridge, and had a view of it from our apartment. Also called the </span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "roboto" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Stari Most bridge, which translates to "old bridge". </span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "roboto" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: medium;">The original Bridge stood for 427 years, until it was destroyed on 9 November 1993 by Croat paramilitary forces during the Croat–Bosniak War. A new bridge built largely from the original stones was unveiled in Mostar in 2004, becoming a symbol of postwar reconciliation. What an amazing experience to spend time in this healing city.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: medium;">What stood out the most to me were the bright colors and reserved yet friendly people. Our host was a young man and he welcomed us warmly to our modern rental apartment. Even though the history has been very challenging, the residents of this area seemed to be thriving and welcoming. We walked the cobblestone streets, taking in the culture. We had dinner at one of the few restaurants, and they served yummy hearty meals with a purple liqueur that is traditional to the culture. It was very affordable to eat, drink, and shop here. The US dollar has a good conversion rate to the Bosnian Mark. We mostly used 0% conversion rate cards for purchases, as well as the Croatian Kuna, which was also widely accepted. Some places in Bosnia accepted Euro and USD as well. My recommendation is to always use the local currency when possible, to avoid conversion charges.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: medium;">Another really surprising thing, was that all day long there would be a young man or 2, standing on top of the Mostar Bridge, preparing to jump. Crowds gather all day long in anticipation of the jump. The plunge is about 78 feet from the top of the arched bridge into the cold waters below. It seems to be largely a tourist attraction that brings in daredevils from around the globe for the plunge. I wondered if this tradition was founded historically and discovered, "the tradition of jumping off a bridge in Mostar began in 1664. Local tradition says that 16-year-old boy must jump from the bridge as a right of passage, but more importantly, it is said that the boys' life will be a complete failure if he doesn't jump". Mostar was founded in the 1400s and flourished during the succeeding four centuries of Ottoman rule. Considering that America wasn't founded until 1776, I find it incredible to visit places which such deeply historic roots. </span></div>

This seasons change to Fall has been symbolic for me. Summer was a bust, having started feeling ill in June. I remember laying out with Emily on the 4th of July, heart racing, and feeling like I was going to pass out just laying there in the sun. It's not unheard of to get too much sun, so I went inside to take a break. I couldn't feel my left foot, my leg was tingling, and there were stabbing pains in my body. I faintly clamored up the stairs to the bedroom, where I fell asleep almost instantly. When I woke up an hour later feeling weak, pretending I felt fine, we went to get fresh juices from the local health food store. It's interesting how our bodies tell us what we need, if we only listen. Now I know that my thyroid was not functioning properly, and there was a virus aggravating my nervous system among other things. On top of that, I was eating gluten not knowing any better. </div>

Onto better topics, following the AIP protocol is not a difficult as I anticipated. When I picked up <i><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Body-Belief-Autoimmune-Diseases-Radically/dp/140195488X">Body Belief</a></i> by Aimee Raupp, I projected I'd give the plan 3 weeks. Just enough to heal the inflammation. Then, I met someone who taught me that we overestimate what we can do in the short term, and sorely underestimate what we can do in the long term. Now, 3 months later, I am still following an AIP protocol. The most important thing I have learned is that healing is not a perfect upward trajectory. There are peaks and valleys. I am better than I was 3 months ago, and in another 3 months I will better than I feel today. Reminding yourself that <i>you are doing the best you can</i>, is crucial. The best you can is THE best. There is nothing more. There is a book I am reading by Philip Simmons, called <i><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Learning-Fall-Blessings-Imperfect-Life/dp/055338158X">Learning to Fall: The Blessings of an Imperfect Life</a>, </i>and a quote really stood out to me;</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><b>"I'd like to think that learning to fall is more than merely a matter of posing, more than an opportunity to play it for laughs. In fact, I would have it that in the way of our falling we have the opportunity to express our essential humanity."</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: medium;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-size: medium;">I find peace within the valleys of my healing, as well as atop the peaks. It's important not to be too hard on yourself, no matter what it is you are achieving. Notice I did not say "trying" to achieve. No, if you are moving forward, you are achieving :) </span></div>

I went from running 4 days a week, beating my personal records, living my life at the fast pace I always have- to a total immune system crash. Truly, it felt as if I had been hit by a bus. It started with pin pricks of pain in my legs. The pain became more frequent. Then my mind started getting fuzzy, I couldn't think straight at times, and my left limbs would go numb and tingly. My doctor told me I was just ANXIOUS. There were days I could not stand up. I became faint and lost 15 pounds in 2 weeks. Vertigo to the point that it felt impossible to walk for more than a few paces. It felt like I was crawling out of my skin. I felt like a human pin cushion. The pain in my head was so blaring, there were nights that I did not sleep. I simply drove until I was too tired to drive anymore. I <i>knew</i> there was something happening in my body, but 3 doctors turned me away with no diagnosis other than a variation of mono.</span></span></div>

In a time where technology incessantly casts a blue light on our faces, its easy to let technology cast a shadow across everything we do. It's nice to set aside our iphones and take part in an antiquated activity once in a while. Historically, high tea was popularized in England by some bougie duchess who would get hangry between lunch and dinner. Bet you didn't think you could relate to an English dutchess from the 1800s.</div>

For me, tea has become a staple, having given up coffee one year ago. Much like a best friend, coffee helped me get though those late night study sessions, exams, and working 2 jobs while going to classes full time. (Bless you, Colectivo). After so many years of relying on caffeine, I'd decided that it was time for a change. Tea has become a new go-to, and what better way to sip a cup than among greenery and posted up on plush <a href="https://www.restorationhardware.com/catalog/category/collections.jsp?categoryId=cat10160012">restoration hardware</a> couches. The <a href="http://3artsclubcafe.com/">3 Arts Cafe</a> located inside Restoration Hardware is a nice midday retreat, where you can sit back relax, or even take your mimosa along with you as you shop.</div>

The West Coast knows how to treat a lady! Being an east coast native left me with the assumption that blue skies and always sunny climate wouldn't jive with me. However, after spending a few weeks checking out California, I'm enamored. Hiking trails and mountains was definitely my favorite aspect of the trip. </div>

Florence feels so tangible. It grabs your hand and pulls you back in time- walking you through vibrant visions of growth, change, strife, and beauty. The grandeur is apparent yet humble and welcoming. I really never want to leave this enchanting place.</div>

Traveling by train throughout Europe has been incredible! Just when we thought we'd never find our way out of Nice (rail strikes are a common occurrence), a random professor lent his travel knowledge and helped us figure it out. After a 14 hour journey from the South of France, we have made it to beautiful Florence. The hostile we are staying in is amazing, and we made a great friend who is on a 4 month backpacking trip from Australia. She had the inside scoop on where to get the best gelato, so off we went. We made our best attempts at Italian since we were far away from tourist town.</div>

And here it is- the best gelato you well ever set eyes on. They say you know it's good gelato if it's covered up rather than on display. You know the locals don't need to see it to know it's good, and it's more fresh that way. We loved it so much we took the 45 minutes walk there twice. </div>

Paris has no lack of excitement! We opted to explore the city by foot and metro, without purchasing any tour passes or guides. Armed with my trusty <a href="http://knopfdoubleday.com/?s=mapguide">Knopf Map Guide of Paris</a>, we were able to maneuver along the small spiraling side streets of neighborhoods, to the giant grandeur streets of the glamorous right bank. One of my favorite moments was getting off the metro at Louvre Rivoli, and first experiencing the area from underground. The giant glass pyramids located outside of the Louvre actually come to a point underground, and looking up at the prysm sky is a uniquely beautiful experience. </div>

It is memories like this which stick with me forever. Everyone walking briskly past me, clutching their Longchamp totes and messengers, neatly tucked under their arms, as their scarves fluttered in the wake of their journey. I remember standing there in awe, slightly disheveled in comparison, looking up at the sky from way down below in pure bliss.</div>

We got lost on the way to Versailles. I mean <i>hours late for our tour</i> lost. In the midst of it I remember thinking, this is not<i> </i>what Pinterest is alluding to with the term, "wanderlust". My version should likely be deemed, "wanderlost<i>". </i>The mapguide only covered Paris, and getting outside of the city was a bit intimidating. Eventually we figured out to take the RER C to Versailles Rive Gauche. The journey was short and worth the wait. We spent a few hours taking in the beauty that deserved days of discovery.<br />

Paris is more than just the city of love. It's a city of wonder and room for the imagination to wander. While walking along the Siene, I recalled Hemingways writings, and the book stalls along the river which he often describes in his novels. I had the sense that nothing had changed between then and now. That I was touching the same bindings of the old books Hemingway touched. That the colors, sounds, and feelings he felt were mine now too. And that is something nobody can ever take away from me, that I'll cherish forever.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Montmartre Paris is one of the most charming areas of the Right Bank, and that is quite a statement considering all the splendor that is Paris, France. If you're traveling Paris and want a relaxing day of unique views I highly recommend the better part of a day here. The winding roads lead uphill towards Basilica of the Sacré Cœur, which stands magnificently atop the highest point in Paris. Something about this place seems peaceful, despite the many tourists and sales people shuffling around. Everyone seemed to have a lightness about them, and I floated in and out of the shops with ease. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Maybe it was my constant focus upward toward the basilica, and outward toward the vista of Paris- but it felt spectacularly serene. After taking in the views and lounging on the monumental steps of the Basilica of Sacré Coeur, we wondered around and had crepes for a slight €7. Sitting on a secluded bench, we ate our lunch while shooing pigeons and watching locals fly by on their mopeds. We then found a lovely gem, Biscuiterie de Montmartre, which had freshly made macaroons that I believe to be as good as Pierre Hermé, though perhaps not as famous. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All in all Montmartre was a lovely area that is perfect for a relaxing day of sightseeing, food-tasting, and general explorations.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Happy Traveling </div>

Spring is upon us and with it often comes new design inspiration! Everyone knows I'm partial to floral patterns, but I was desirous of something a little out of the box. Indian block prints are really colorful and bright, but offer more simple clean lines for a classic look. I fell in love with the Kanta Chaise pictured above, and can't wait to incorporate it into my living room design. </div>

I might have spent a good portion of my life in New York City, but sometimes you just need to stand at the top of the Empire State Building, open your eyes, and see the beauty. xoxoNatashahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14551452139748877359noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2710113542370867511.post-3867289563238365152013-01-14T14:48:00.001-08:002013-01-14T14:48:49.110-08:00Breakfast at Tiffinay's <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

In honor of the last episode of <b>Gossip Girl</b> ever, I've put together two <b>Gossip Girl inspired NYE looks</b>! These looks are inspired by one of Gossip Girls best style moments, when Serena and Blair are in Paris desperately searching for Chuck, and looking timelessly chic along the way. Blair wears a red Oscar De La Renta Dress with Christian Louboutin heels and Harry Winston necklace. Serena rocks a chic color block look with Sequined Emilio Pucci blazer and shimmering Brian Atwood pumps. Together, these looks stand out next to each other in a breathtaking moment of fashion fabulousness. In a perfect world, my best friend and I would update this <b>Gossip Girl style</b> moment and don it for New Years Eve 2012!</div>

I've been slacking on blog posts lately.. if I ever want to graduate I figured I should dedicate my free time to studying, and the best way to do that is coffee shop dwelling, obviously. A personal thank you to <b><a href="http://alterracoffee.com/incafes/LocalNewsEvents.aspx">Alterra </a></b>for providing a study-friendly aesthetic. Where do you do your best studying?</div>

Happy Studying!</div>

<b>Christmas shopping</b> is my FAVORITE. This year, I've been faced with the challenge of shopping for a bunch of little girls around the age of 11. I firmly believe that children should be given supplies to explore their imagination and discover their personal talents and interests. That's why I decided to put together a <b>DIY craft kit</b> for each girl. I stumbled upon these super cool <b><a href="http://50watts.com/I-put-my-thing-down-fold-it-and-reverse-it">paper cut out crafts</a></b> which you can print (in fun big sizes too!*) for kids. Add fun colored tape, non toxic glue, glitter, vintage knick knacks, pom poms, and gems! I also found a great link for free <a href="http://farfarhill.blogspot.com/2011/07/freebies-old-style-paper_18.html"><b>vintage floral paper</b></a>! I'm also searching for the right book to include with the craft kits. Something that will inspire ideas for even more creativity!<br />
<br />
What kid wouldn't like a homemade craft kit?!<br />
<br />
Happy blogging!<br />
