My last weekend in Europe, why not go all out? Prague and Budapest were both on my check list, we had a long weekend, and everything seemed to have worked out perfectly. Prague was beautiful and quaint. We only spent one day there which was perfect, we were able to walk to most of the … Continue reading Prague & Budapest // Suspended Tickets & Thermal Baths
Amsterdam // A Dam Good Weekend
Two weekends ago, my friend Kelsey turned 21 while that may not be a big deal here in Europe it's still a pretty big deal for us so we spent the weekend in Amsterdam.

We stayed … Continue reading Lago De Garda // Desenzano & Sirmione
Verona // The City of Love
Daily life here in Verona is very beautiful, that is if you don't mind the heat and humidity. Even in the springtime temperatures get up to the nineties. Nonetheless walking through the ancient streets of Verona and along the River Adige is idealistic. Verona is located in the North region of Italy, known as the … Continue reading Verona // The City of Love
Aggiustamenti // Adjustments
So I have been in Italy for a little over a week and it has been one of the most overwhelming weeks of my life. Any kind of adjustment is hard and moving across the world is definitely very difficult. I notice new cultural differences everyday. Whether it's the extra long lunches, lack of air … Continue reading Aggiustamenti // Adjustments
Non Vedo L’ora // I Can’t Wait
