GINGERS

What country have I decided to focus on this week? Take a guess, Spain? Sweden? Slovakia? No, it is, wait for it...Australia! (Don’t ask me why I got you going on the ‘S’ countries, because I really don’t know.) So, I haven't actually been to Australia, but we have family that lives in Melbourne, and I thought it might be fun to share this with you. My aunt, or my dad’s sister, moved to Australia when she found the love of her life, my uncle. They got married and had two boys, Michael (20) and Julian (18). Let me stop you right here. Michael and Julian are hardcore Australians. I mean, gingers (no, not gingers, but gingers.) Yes. Their accents are amazing. Not garlic, gollic. Not girls, but gulls. See what I mean? It’s fantastic. Anyway, I should probably get to the point of this post, which, now that I’m thinking about it, is really nonexistent. I just wanted to tell you about how amazing my family is. 

The Crisi’s visit the United States every once in a while, and we try to see them as much as possible when they’re here. Family reunion in Vegas, Thanksgiving in Santa Fe, another family reunion (in Denver this time), a wedding or two. Considering they live on the other side of the world, they travel here a lot. They actually kind of nag us to visit them, which I guess they are entitled to do, if I think about the amount of times they have been here. I’m not opposed to visiting Australia, but I can’t deny that it is one of the many, many places on my list. (Behind Kenya, France, or Spain, perhaps?:) 

To wrap this up, I just think it is super cool that I have family from the other side of the world, it kind of boosts my idea of being a world traveler. With them I know that if I am ever in Australia (which, I will be at some point), I will always have family to help me on my journey.

P.S: In case you live under a rock and don't know what a ginger is...

Hardcore gingers, right?!?

          ginger |ˈjinjər|
          noun: (of a person or animal) having ginger hair or fur.

P.P.S: Just to clarify, my cousins fall under the 'person' category, and they have hair, not fur.
