Goodbye, Philly

After some thought, and some trouble finding a job (that I like) full-time, I've decided to leave Philly. My brief Cali trip was great, and after living in Philly for the past 5 months, I've realized it is not for me. I miss the food and diversity of Cali, so back to Cali I go!

Good-bye brunch!

I will miss my friends but given that none of them are actual Philly natives, I am sure we will all meet again in a different state or country.

Bodhi Coffee - Philly work + life

Bodhi Coffee

I don't mind the weather here... mostly because:

1) it's a "mild" winter
2) Ginger LOVES fresh snow (but hates dirty snow)

I wish I had considered getting waterproof shoes (duh). I learned the hard way - walked 45 minutes in the snow and arrived at work with soaked socks. Luckily, CVS sold thick socks!
