Man. Happy Thanksgiving Week! It’s actually here. I haven’t even processed the holiday because my sights have been set on my first trip to Europe (!!), and we leave Wednesday. I am excited to accompany Susan and our friend and Swedish guru Sofie Reed for 20 days of gigs and workshops across the country. We’ll be in Stockholm, Ludvika, Bredsjö, Norrtälje, Karlskoga, Kristinehamn, Åmål, and some places I am sure I left off. Sofie has a great run down of everything on her website!

So fresh so clean.

Not sure why it took me so long to get to Europe…I didn’t do anything in high school that offered a summer trip (the guitar program was surprisingly lacking in funds for such things) and then I moved to Austin and life happened. I am really grateful that this trip is because of music…some great opportunities have come down the pike working with Susan, and this is a lovely way to cap off 2015.

Packing frenzy…I plan to take as little as possible, and it is cold and damp and dark over there. Outerwear is key. I an excited for Swedish coffee, because I read they take their midday coffee hangs very seriously. I think we’ll get along just fine with the Swedes.

Updates as I can grab wifi!
