Lucerne, Switzerland Wishes You Were Here
I could hear Lucerne long before strolling its streets. I heard it splash my face with drizzling rain the minute that I stepped out of the train station.

And I could hear Lucerne perhaps most serenely from my balcony, listening to snow sprinkled Continue Reading

As I went over the chart, I noticed modest bar heights for gas, groceries and shopping. However once I came to the travel bar, the bold rectangular block resembled that of a skyscraper to the moon. Clearly this is the area of life that I devote the most money to and I have the bar graph to prove it. As part of an informal travel resolution, I decided this year that I wanted to try and cut down that travel bar on Continue Reading
