Travel Tuesday: Once again, not warm


The adventures have officially begun. Trav and I have driven over 3,000 miles, flown on a giant purple plane, and landed in our first destination abroad. After driving to Boston fron Olean, NY, we hopped on a plane at 7:30pm. We landed at 5am. Due to the time change and whatnot, we slept about 3 hours on a plane. Which we all know is incredible quality of sleep. I'm not entirely sure if you can judge a city by its airport, but oh my goodness this city has a gorgeous airport. It is, by far, the most beatuifully interior designed and exterior crafted.



So, here in Iceland, we have eaten food, drank beer & coffee, slept for 14 hours straight, wandered around in the rain, and had a blast. It's crazy how they built a city on a jut of land where mountains meet the Atlantic. It is 100% not warm here. 43 degrees F not warm, to be exact. Praise the Lord for warm coffee shops and free wifi to search for more warm coffee shops.



Tomorrow, we are off to elsewhere - the adventure continues!

If you are reading this as a friend or family: we love and miss you, we are being safe, our passports are guarded with our lives (don't worry grandparents - we love you!), and we are having a blast.

If you are reading this as a teacher or educator: You can win a free product!

I suppose I'll give blogging a go

Hello all! 

My name is Monica Wentworth and this is my first attempt at dabbling in the blogging world, so bear with me. I'm going to give you all a little blurb about myself now. 

I'm twenty one years old. I live in Charlotte, NC with my lovely husband, Travis Wentworth. I graduated college at the University of Northern Iowa with a bachelor's degree in Psychology and Family Services. I have a huge passion for helping people to help themselves. I believe oh-so-strongly that people are capable of immeasurably more than they give themselves credit for. My mission in life is to empower people, preferably starting at a young age, to do just that - believe in themselves. I am currently working towards that goal by creating innovative educational content for Teachers Pay Teachers. I invite you all to check out my store. I also invite you to simply just follow this blog for the sake of a small giggle here and an ounce of motivation there.

So that's me. Here's a picture of my husband and me. We love donuts almost as much as we love people. Ft. Your Mom's Donuts


So this is the beginning of my blogging career. Is it a career? Maybe this is the beginning of my blogging adventure. Yes, we will call this an adventure. On this adventure you can expect: lesson plan ideas, classroom fun activities, teacher motivation, random encouragement, some of the crazy adventures Trav and I have experienced, and some cool pictures from all over Europe.

Yes, I just said Europe. I will be blogging and working from Europe this summer. Please join us for the ride! 

Thanks for visiting:)


Smiles,
Monica Wentworth
