Week 30 + 31 Food, Stress,and Rock’n’Roll
Well, here we are again, almost weeks after my last post. I had started a week 30 update but didn’t finish it. Then last week came and went. I figure I could just try to through a different, shorter recap together and call it a day. One day I’ll be consistent. Or not, ha! I…

Break.

Week 14 – excitement, panic #roadtoberlin
