Trip to Greece: Athens

After cramming 2 weeks worth of travel attire and needs into a carry-on, flight delay, missing a connection, and what seemed like 12+ hours of travel time, we finally made it to Greece. 

We showered, rallied, and head out 

for sightseeing. 

The Parthenon (Greek: Παρθενών) is a temple on the Athenian Acropolis, Greece.

Late night we stopped into Brettos for a fun traditional Greek cocktail.

Rakomelo - raki boiled with honey

So far, so fun!

Wellness in the New Year

Happy New Year!

Many of us vow healthy goals for New Year's resolutions. A segment of the Kojo Nnamdi Show this week really spoke to me, and has made me choose some simple and achievable goals that will benefit my health and overall wellness. The discussion was about wellness in the workplace, and I thought... What about wellness in the home, in school, and so on? The guests talked about how they felt the U.S. has a "diseasecare" system, instead of a healthcare system, and how we need to focus on preventing illness, aches, and pains - not just masking them. I feel that many of the ideas given in the show would benefit families, not just companies.

Overall wellness is often a New Year's Resolution for many people. Make a simple goal to listen to this show.
