Why I moved to Lisbon, Portugal
Here I am, just turned 23, and I find myself living in Lisbon, Portugal. The story behind how I got here is one that I hold close to my heart. My boyfriend and I moved here together after being in a long distance relationship for about seven months. I was living in Iceland after some green card complications. You see, this is my birth place. I hadn’t lived in Iceland for fifteen years. When I got there, I was totally reintroduced to my entire family and homeland. Although the whole experience of being there was life changing, I was still in this relationship that I very much did not want to leave, but couldn’t handle the sadness of long distance. The six hour time difference plus living totally different lives was hard for both of us. The effort was there for both of us, though. He flew to Iceland, I flew to Tulsa, and at one point we flew to Canada to meet in the middle. We wanted to make this work. So we picked a place where it would be cheap, easy to do remote work, and beautiful: Lisbon. I arrived on December 28th and him shortly after.

Hiking to scenic Iceberg Lake and Ptarmigan Tunnel
Iceberg Lake has got to be one of my favorite hikes in all of Glacier National Park. This little gem is neatly tucked away in a mountain cirque, causing it to not get much sunlight during the day. You will often see blocks of ice that have slid off of steep cliffs surrounding the lake, and they float in the water as little icebergs. Even on a summer day, you can sometimes see over a dozen ice chunks covering the glassy lake surface. It is one of the coolest and most unique scenes in the Park!

The Joy of Mini Vacations
Some vacations are long, epic adventures, but others are short, quick escapades that thrill and leave you wanting more. The trip I took to Watkins Glen, New York has solidly secured the highest ranking of the latter. We spent two full days there, the first exploring a beautiful gorge with striking waterfalls and fascinating rock formations and the second meandering slowly through a portion of the finger lakes.
