Hi everyone! It is nice to 'meet' you. My name is Kiera Cassidy and I'm a sophomore here at Bloomsburg University. My major is English Literature with a minor in Communication Studies. I plan on using my degree (and getting my teaching certificate) in the future to eventually become an English teacher which has been my aspiration for a few years now. My hometown is Philadelphia, PA, I had always dreamt of leaving the city lifestyle when I was growing up which I think, evolved into my love of travel. On the first day of classes, I had mentioned my favorite book was Spells for Lost Things by Jenna Evans Welch. This book revolves around a family mystery, travel, astrology, and romance - to sum it up in a few words. This author also wrote the Love & series - consisting of Love & Gelato, Love & Luck, and Love & Olives, all detailing diaries of a young girl traveling anywhere from Italy to Greece in hopes of self discovery and overcoming varieties of hardship, and most meaningful of all: finding love hidden in plain sight. Aside from reading, one of my favorite hobbies is dancing. I have been dancing for a couple years now, mostly focusing on contemporary, lyrical and ballet styles. This past winter, I got the opportunity to go see the Nutcracker ballet with my aunt here in Bloomsburg. I would recommend this ballet to everyone, even if you do not like dance, I think you will appreciate the time and effort these dancers put in to create something so beautiful.

The love series you mentioned sound very good and I might just have to add them to my reading list for this semester. I love romance and this sounds like the perfect type of reading for me.
ReplyDeleteAny places on your bucket list when it comes to travel?
ReplyDeletedefinitely Europe - I love it over there, it is so beautiful. Ireland, England, Scotland, France, and more of Italy!
DeleteHey Kiera! I will definitely have to check out some of those books. I have never really traveled, do you have any suggestions?
ReplyDeletehiii! I would recommend traveling to different neighboring states to get a feel for it, (for example New York, New Jersey, Ohio, or Maryland) - there is so many beautiful things outside of your backyard.
DeleteSuch a well said blog. I totally get you on the city living lifestyle. I grew up in Denver Colorado and I loved loved loved living there.
ReplyDeleteHi Kiera! I have read about the Love series but it never seemed to be my style of romance. On the other hand, Spells for Lost Things, seems more my speed and I will definitely give it a try.
