Been working on this one between appointments this week. Now on the wall and available to be made into birdie tattoos. Inspired by an oil painting or a tea cup or something.

When I say you can customize the fabric of the internal pocket, I am serious. This extra special pillow was made for somebody whose child is graduating and Christmas. #mtu #michigantech #mtuhuskies https://www.instagram.com/p/B6dvou4hjBB/?igshid=1qi769s90f5qc

Returning Home: The Aftershock
The term ‘culture shock’ gets thrown around a lot when we talk about travel.”Traveling you see a different world.” we are told before we leave “There will be so much to learn and adjust to.” We think in anticipation. For me, the culture shock doesn’t happen as the airplane lands, as a new language fills my ears, or even as I sample some new food. For me culture shock happens the moment I get home. Here I sit, in the house I grew up in, everything so familiar, so comfortable. It becomes hard to believe that I was on a different continent yesterday...two days ago...three? The last week there starts to become a blur.
How was it already one week ago that I sat in class with small, Spanish speaking children and helped them with their math? Was it just last week that the bus climbed to the top of their grey, dull mountain dotted with brightly colored houses? Just last week that they met us at the door smiling and confused, yet excited that we had remembered their names?

Was it just last week that I walked through the colorful streets of Pueblo Libre? Visited the museum there? Ogled at the ancient, Incan art?

Was it just a few days ago that we finished our last day of Spanish class? Laughed and took pictures as we walked out the door? Contemplated what to do with our last couple days in Peru?

How does it seem like forever ago that my host mom kissed my cheek, asked me to come back one day, and called me here ‘hijita’ one last time before I whisked out the door to the airport?

Yes, for me the culture shock doesn’t set in until I’m home again. When I’m surrounded by the familiar with only the memory of an adventure that begins to grow distant; that’s when it hits me. Peru was the adventure of a lifetime and it doesn’t seem possible that six weeks flew by so quickly.

I have enough of this old fabric to make 5 lip balm holders. Then it's gone forever unless I somehow find more of it. #lipbalmholder #michigantech #huskies #michiganmade

“Two of life’s greatest pleasures, by my reckoning, are camping and reading – most gloriously, both at once.” —Michael Finkel, The Stranger in the Woods Apt line from our #michigantech Reading as Inquiry for incoming first-years. It’ll be the fifth year I’ve moderated a student reading group. Looking forward. In addition to the just-finished Stranger, just started Jodi Picoult’s Plain Truth, re-reading Sara Gruen’s Water for Elephants, and cherry-picking @eckharttolle’s A New Earth (perfect for these times). And of @thekristamitchell crystal primers daily. What’s on your TBR pile? It can never get too tall! #tbr #read #ilovebooks #writers #novel #nonfiction #bookstagram (at Baraga, Michigan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDcytpYF4rp/?igshid=1tesupwdt2vw0
