How much can you fit in your suitcase




One and a half years in a country I didn't think was home. One suitcase, One new father and best friend and a lot of love, and my soul is richer than I ever thought it could be

Leaving for Greece almost a year and a half ago, I was devastated to find out I couldn't brung more than one suitcase. Needless to say I had to pay an extra hundred bucks to get it on the plane. I thought it was a ridiculous rule but it turns out everything I needed in my life at the time was already there, waiting for me.

Leaving Greece sucked. It's honestly a magical place... Stylish athletic men with a handsomely mysterious 5 oclock shadow permanently shading their chiseled jaw and bright blue eyes reflecting the island waters, Moscato D'Asti on the old Venetian port with girlfriends and watching stars fall on the beach in August with the love of your life.

Coming back to Montreal, I'll admit I was excited to see my other half (Alexa) but the city was not as beautiful as I remembered it.

Coming back to my University town was crazier than I remembered and after over 80 hours of work a week I was excited to study , party and be a slob ( something I wasn't at liberty to do as a restaurant manager on such a small island)
