A Texas Girl Exploring the World
To wrap up my London posts, I’m squishing our last two days together into one post! To finish up our time, we squeezed in all the extra sights and must-do’s on our lists. Friday morning we headed to Kensington Palace, home of Will and Kate, because we wanted to visit the exhibit of Princess Diana’s clothes. […]
To be totally honest, I was not that excited about our trip to Stonehenge. I was already disappointed that we couldn’t visit Highclere Castle (aka Downton Abbey) as it wasn’t open for the season yet. My consolation prize was a trip to Windsor Castle, but I’ll get to that later in this post. I had […]
Hello! I’m back from London and have finally sorted through some of my photos. It was so nice to have a break from everything and enjoy the amazing weather- yes, I said amazing weather. In London. In March. This isn’t necessarily a guide of things to do in London, I just wanted to share some […]
With two Europe trips on my calendar for this year, I’m breaking out all my tried-and-true tips for surviving long flights, layovers, multiple security checks, and all the other drama that comes with flying. Since international is a whole other animal, I’m sharing my favorite tips for how to survive long flights! If you’ve ever read even […]
As of today, I have 2 more weeks until I’m off to London! Since I’m a planner, I’ve already been working on my packing list and what we’ll be doing/seeing every day. I’ve been once, for a quick weekend trip while I was studying abroad, but I would love any tips/recommendations/etc! Before I pack up, I […]
I’ve been trying to write about our Miami trip since we got home last week, but every time I just end up looking at pictures and plotting our return trip. I absolutely fell in love with Miami, something that I didn’t expect before we arrived. Maybe it was the perfect weather. Maybe it was the […]
It’s back to school season, which means a lot of people are jetting off to spend their semester abroad. Unless this is your first time visiting the blog, you know I loved my study abroad experience, and I constantly preach about its benefits. However, before heading out I was totally lost. I spent countless hours reading […]
Let me start by saying that Prague is not one of my favorite cities, but it’s still worthy of a City Guide. I liked Prague, but I don’t have a burning desire to return (maybe in a few years). There are so many other cities I’d love to see or return to. But, Prague was […]
I’m jumping back into my City Guides series with another favorite city; Paris. I don’t care how cliche it may seem, I love Paris and I will never go enough times. I’ve been twice and I still have a long list of things to do in Paris. But, if the City of Lights is on your […]
I’m switching it up from the usual Friday Favorites post this week to share some of my travel tips. I’m in New York right now for graduation weekend, but since I finished school I’ve gotten out of the habit of always being ready to hop on a plane. When I studied abroad, I felt like I was […]
