Happiness is...

Hello, so I apologize for not writing in awhile, but I am in Greece so I must "seize the day." Life is wonderful for me :) And partly it's because I am in the beautiful country of Greece, but it's also because I am so blessed to have wonderful family and friends who support me, and wonderful friends on this trip. Last Thursday we took a trip up to a village town in the Pelion mountains. The village was my kind of place: quaint, rustic, and views to "kill" for. We didn't have much time, but just being able to see Volos from a new perspective was great. I did a little shopping, and a lot of picture taking. The streets are made of stones, and require some caution when walking them, and they go so high the villagers use donkeys to carry their bags. Unfortunately, we took the wrong paths and no donkeys were seen, but they had left little "presents" behind. ;)  The weekend flew by and now it is already Tuesday! I can't believe how fast the time is going. Today, I strapped on my "adventure" shoes and climbed (yes, climbed) a very steep foothill that had amazing views of Alikes (where we stay). The climb gave me some new battle wounds, which I'm very proud of, and also reminded me that I can do anything if I try. I'm going to keep my positive attitude up, and live life to the fullest. Life is too short to be anything but positive and happy. I leave for Spring Break a week from tomorrow, and I can't wait. I'll turn twenty-one in London, which is wonderful to say, the only wish I'm making is to have my friends and family with me, but at least they'll be there in spirit. Love and miss you all-Sarah.
