Lighter Backpacks

7:13 AM
After traveling for nine months, you get pretty good at packing your bag at the end of the stay.

I looked from my partially filled bag to Zach's and...

A Quick Update

4:45 AM
Hello lovely readers!  As you may know or noticed on our calendar, we're officially back in the US! We flew into NYC from Vienna, Austria earlier this week and while our flight took eight and a half hours, we had a very non-eventful and easy trip.

Czech-ing In with the Doctor*

9:26 AM
So, I need to write a PSA to all our readers before we continue with the rest of this post. There are more puns ahead. Yes, worse than the title. Zach has prided himself on writing the majority of post titles and when he thinks of them he laughs for a minute straight before he tells me what they are. You've been warned....
