Who doesn’t want options, when it comes to starting out? Who doesn’t want options when it comes to starting over?
In my morning reading, this caught my eye: 10 Great Cities for Young Adults. How could I not check it out, thinking about my own sons and where they might light in a few years, pursuing [...]

“Who are you, really?” he wrote, in an email.

European vacation on the horizon?
Are you making summer plans? Is Europe in your future?
