I am way, way, way, WAYÂ behind on blogging (as in a month behind) BUT I’m catching up! I wanted to recap some of our adventures in Amsterdam when Zac and Lydia came to visit! We only had one day in Amsterdam before we left for Paris, and most of it was spent wandering around and […]
Bonjour, Paris!
Alright y’all, I am waaaaayyyyy behind on blogging (as in I have three weekends worth of travel to blog about and I’m about to head out for another trip tomorrow). BUT I’m finally sitting down to write about our trip to Paris! I visited Paris the summer after my sophomore year of high school- here’s a […]
April
My favorite month is finally here!!! I did a big post last year at the beginning of April and it amazes me to see how much has changed…it seems like it was just a few months ago! Number 5 on my list was about waiting to hear back from Amsterdam…and look how things turned out! […]
Finding Good ‘Craic’ In Ireland
Wow. That is the one word I would use to describe this past weekend in Ireland. ‘Wow’ because it was a whirlwind trip that didn’t last near as long as I would have liked. ‘Wow’ because we nearly didn’t make it to Ireland and nearly didn’t make it home. And ‘Wow’ because I am now […]
Prague (aka the weekend with no sleep)
I guess I should have titled that post, “the first of many weekends with no sleep.” I will be traveling 5 out of the next 6 weekends (the weekend I’m not traveling is my birthday!) so sleep isn’t going to be a priority. After all, who needs sleep when there are things like overnight buses […]
In Bruges (and Brussels)
Continuing with our whirlwind trip to Belgium, here’s the pictures from Bruges and Brussels! Like Ghent, we knew very little about Bruges, other than the fact that people kept saying we needed to visit. To tell the truth, I definitely prefer Ghent over Bruges. Yes, Bruges is beautiful and old, but Ghent is so medieval […]
Ghent
I was going to make one big post about our weekend in Belgium, before I realized that I took nearly 400 photos from a two-day trip…oops! So, here’s just a few pictures from our trip to Ghent, Belgium. Our roommate getaway to Belgium was pretty last-minute and we didn’t really plan anything other than our […]
Weekend in Holland
Hello! I’ve been having the worst computer trouble, but after 2 hours in the Apple store, transferring everything to an external hard drive, and wiping my computer, I’m back up and running and can finally blog again! SO, it’s finally here- my recap of my weekend in Holland. This post is super, super photo-heavy but […]
IJ-Hallen
I think the best part about being an international student is that there are tons of other kids who, like me, are completely lost as we’ve all been plopped into a foreign country. Since arriving I’ve discovered that the first week of the semester feels a lot like freshman year of college, where everyone is […]
Day Trip
The best part about going to school in Amsterdam is that so many other students chose this as a study abroad destination. As as a result, the schools’ International Student Network is always organizing trips and events. Saturday I finally got out of the city for the first time all week as we all ventured […]
