About Me

My photo
Hi, I'm Allison! I am a fun loving, adventure seeking, music and cooking obsessed 23 year old. In December of 2012, I graduated from Texas A&M University. This was a bittersweet achievement for me. On one hand, I entered the real world to hopefully out all my training and skills to use. On the other hand, I left the best place on earth where I had some of the best experiences of my life. Now I'm living in Houston working with Saint Arnold Brewing Company. Join me as I make my way out into the world without my safety net of college, and hope I can adjust!

Les monuments

I just wanted to show you some of the pictures I got from yesterday's tour. I must make two (sort of amazing) disclaimers. First, these were all taken with my iPhone. No way!! I didn't even know my phone worked this well, they turned out better than most on my digital camera! Secondly, these were taken with extreme luck. They were due to either the amazing precision of my angle from the bus, or the chance perfect timing of the clouds and lighting from the really sunny day. There are many more, but these were my favorites. Enjoy!

Kitty with Le Tour Eiffel. (Loved the angle, and look at the amazing sweeping clouds! Also note, this is the only edited picture. I just faded the color a bit, the rest are completely untouched!)


L'Arc de Triumph.


L'obliesque. (Ancient Egyptian monument donated to France, sits between Le Louvre and Les Champs Elysees)


Finalement, ma piece de resistance....Jean D'Arc! I took this from the bus as we were driving by and could not believe my luck. This might be one of my favorite pictures I take the whole trip!


I assure you there will be more to come, I'm only 36 hours into this month-long study abroad. I can't wait to see how I improve!
