This time last year, I was getting ready for a hybrid work-pleasure trip to France for my 3rd 30th bday. Today, I’m sitting at my desk, watching my inbox fill-up with reminders of my impending trip to France that begins tomorrow.
- 4 days in Toulouse (pleasure – sight-seeing à la touriste)
- 4 days in Paris (work)
- 2.5 days in Nîmes (pleasure – a mini dance festival)
I’m really digging work’s habit of sending me to France around my bday. This is a habit I am embracing wholeheartedly – may it continue for as long as I turn 30.
Like last year, I intend on cramming all of my clothes into 2 carry-on bags, to facilitate flopping about cities. Like every trip ever, my plane is leaving in 24 hours and I haven’t started packing. I haven’t even done laundry. I’ve no idea what to bring, the weather, anything. Will I rush home after work, and get cracking? Nah. Dance class, y’all. No way I am skipping my weekly 4-5 hour dose of kizomba. #priorities Will I have an exhausted meltdown tonight, as I try finish packing at 1 or 2am? You know it. #thepoweroftradition
Still…
I’m hyper. What else is new?

Packing becomes easy after a few similar trips.
Plus, whatever you forget you can buy on-site, and shopping overseas is always a different experience, to say the least.
Have fun !

*happy bday MONTH.
Bday is next week. And yes, I do bday weeks. Bc I am a unicorn, and unicorns get a LOT of celebrating.
I AM SO EXCITED. I will be seeing “my” Max. I will be in France. I will dance till my feet hurt. I will eat profiteroles for supper on my bday day. I will come back pleasantly plump and bougie and this is gonna be THE BEST.
