I'm coming home, I'm coming home.
My cab to the airport arrives in a half hour. Auf Wiedersehen, Salzburg…for now.

I have 3 nights left in Austria before heading back to real life & facing the fact that I am basically completely broke due to this month of not working. I better make these last few days count.
I can't believe I'm leaving Austria in 4 days.
I met some amazing people here, and it is an experience I will never forget.
But it also made me cherish the people back home even more. I am excited and nervous to get back to real life.
Performance #3 of Die Zauberflöte tonight! Had a great day walking around Salzburg with the fam. Resting & prepping for the opera now. I can’t believe I go home in a week! Where has this month gone??
My dad & David are in Salzburg! Yay!
1 down, 5 to go!
Opening night was a surprising success! Although we were not able to have a dress rehearsal in the space, and even though it is quite an “unconventional” stage, we pulled it off! And we actually had a nice sized audience. I’m hoping as the week goes on we get more people in the doors through word of mouth. The audience was extremely appreciative, and it looked like they...

The policeman in Monopoly has a name, too. You can thank Officer Edgar Mallory the next time he sends you to jail.

Busy, busy in Salzburg!
Last night I had the privilege of singing a Lieder recital in the Schloss Frohnburg, which was featured in The Sound of Music as the outside of the Von Trapp Estate, & also during “I have Confidence.” It was pretty amazing, and the hall where we performed was beautiful.
Today I had rehearsal from 10 am-9:30 pm. SUCH a long day. Three run-throughs, but that’s what...

Yay for days off!
Today I did not set an alarm. I woke up at 10, read in my PJs, drank some tea, & ate a delicious & fruity pastry for breakfast. Then I met up with a few people to go shopping at the EUROPARK! The Europark is a big mall just outside of Salzburg. It was pretty hot out today for Austrian weather, so we decided to do something indoors with air conditioning. Plus, I haven’t really...
Blackberries, brie cheese, & wine. YUM!
Today I had another great voice lesson. I really, honestly feel like I am growing as an artist here. And as a person. I am realizing that, although sometimes I wanted to rip my eyes out during my time there, Rutgers really did give me a great education & Professor Nicosia gave me a strong basis in technique. I need to be confident in myself and what I do. And ya know what? I think now, I...

I really miss Chuck.

Cake Cake Cake!
Today we decided it was time to indulge in an Austrian favorite: Sachertorte. It’s a chocolate cake with a thin layer of apricot jam in the middle. Being a chocaholic, I was in HEAVEN. It really was probably the best piece of cake I have ever had. The Konditorei we went to was really cute, too! We got some coffee, also, and took the time to sit down, relax, & enjoy the chocolate-y...

I'm back!
Well, Tumblr, I’ve been gone for a while. Then I started a fitness Tumblr, and that went well for a while, but then I sort of forgot about that one, too. However, upon discovering that Disney Memories Tumblr page, I revisited this old thing. And then I realized…I’m in AUSTRIA. There is so much to blog about! Why am I not blogging?! So I’m going to start now. It may...
