An American Pilgrim in Alsace (and then back in America)

This neon sign is atop a Christmas market stall. The Strasbourg cathedral can be seen in the background.

Thea: Strasbourg, France; Sometimes life can be very surprising. I am originally from a rural part of southwestern Pennsylvania in America, a place where there are way more trees than people. In 2009, my husband's job required us to trade in dirt roads for cobblestoned ones. We now live in the city of Strasbourg, France, with our dog and cat, who we shipped over from the States, and our daughter, who was born here. I never thought my daily routine would include a centuries old cathedral, baguettes, swans, and languages other than English. During my time in France I have learned so much about Europe, America, and life, but I have learned the most about myself.
