The Lost Boys
Welcome to our blog! We will be writing about our adventures throughout Europe over the next half year (or longer). In case you read our title and thought "Lost Boys, wtf?" The Lost Boys are Peter Pan's followers who do not want to grow up. In order to stop the process of growing up and avoid responsibilities the Lost Boys escaped to Never Never Land. In our case Europe is our Never Never Land, a place to escape from growing up, from getting jobs, from becoming real people and having a shit ton of fun along the way!

Mark is the bobble head of the infamous Mark Bradford, father of the Bradford family. The Bradford family took me in under their wing while I lived in Indiana and so I thought I would take a piece of the along with me on this trip.

So if you find yourself being a grown up with responsibilities and are bored at work or at home, your escape is only a click away!

Thanks for reading!

American Cocaine...

Finally gave into some American cocaine today...(sorry not the same "sampler" I was offered in London ghetto...)

This is the first "American" thing I have eaten since I have been in Europe.  It was Euphoria in my mouth and all the way down, mmmmmmmm...now all I crave is more!  Since being here I have noticed there really are hardly any local snack foods available.  Here if you want something to snack on the only options you really have is fruit.  It is amazing to think of all the mindless munching we do in the States that we don't even realize.  It makes you wonder when Americans picked up on the snack food craze, maybe it comes from all the mind numbing 40+ hour weeks everyone works.  Here life is laid back, and they even have a siesta from 2-5 pm.  If only we could integrate that into American society....YA RIGHT!

  1. Wow, some interesting thoughts. We definately do eat to fill a void that work just doesn't give us. It is sad though to think we are trading sanity and health for a task master that will kill us-work.
    Europeans are the ones laughing at our crazy ass lifestyle of chasing our tail.. I didn't say chasing tail either.
