“The Spanish word for suitcase, equipaje, will forever be my favorite word in Spanish because I love the sound of it spoken.”
“So weird! There’s a family sitting near me and my friend at the Double T diner on route 40 in Baltimore and they were totally just on the same flight I took from Cleveland to BWI tonight.
