About a month ago Revanche was tweeting about someone who had asked her for career help but didn’t have any plan in place. I jumped in saying that I didn’t think that this was too bad… I mean, lots of people don’t have plans right?

I’ve been home for about a week now and I’ve been reflecting quite a bit on what I’ve learned and how I’ve changed as a person while in Europe.
First of all, if you’re thinking about traveling and can afford to do so, just do it. I can’t even stress how adamant I am about [...]
I cannot wait to be old and retired. There are many reasons for this — including the fact that I’ll get to say whatever the hell I want and no one will care. Example:
2013 Vanessa: Dammit, move your damn cart. Stop staring at the bananas. Just pick up a banana — stop hogging the [...]
I’m back! Actually, I came back on Sunday and it was great fun — started my birthday at 4am Paris time, was wished a happy birthday by the French border control guy, went back through 6 time zones and finished my birthday by passing out at 10.30pm Montreal time.

I’m tired of wading through crappy posts that have [...]
I feel like I should stop calling these updates “Europe Update”s since they’re pretty much just “Bulgaria Update”s. Yup, still here.
I took an actual weekend this week — two days off of ZERO work, just f-ing around online, talking to people, exploring the city. It was delightful and I think that I will repeat [...]
Happy Friday — or should I say, happy giveaway day!
My giveaway is courtesy of Authors on the Web and is for the book: I’m On My Own and So Are You: Financial Security for Women by Judy Resnick.
If you’ve know me in real life, you’ll know that I’m not the typical [...]
While researching for work (or when I’m reading before my lunch-time nap), I often head into the strangest places — mostly for inspiration. Allow me to share some of the silliest things that I’ve found this week:
[I feel a bit bad for the poor girl in #3 but the articles were just way, WAY [...]
