1 // There are hardly any women in public. Before going to Morocco, I knew that, traditionally, women are not part of the public society. They usually stay home to care for the house and children. If they are in public, it´s to sell goods or to buy foods. With that being said, I was […]
A Day Trip from Tangier to Chefchaouen
Hi, friends! After spending a couple days in Tangier, we were ready to venture out and visit another town so we decided to visit Chefchaouen by doing a day trip from Tangier to Chefchaouen. Traveling through Morocco can be intimidating, but in this post, I will tell you exactly what we did. Just starting? Or […]
2.5 Days in Tanger, Morocco
Wow, I don’t even know where to begin. I’m both in shock that this weekend- a weekend that I have been looking forward to for so long- is over, and also amazed by what an amazing time I had in Morocco. It was everything that I expected, but also very different from what I […]
Barcelona on a Budget
My brother and I spent 2.5 great days in Barcelona, enjoyed a lot of the incredible sites, and did it all relatively inexpensively. Here is what we did: Day One Stroll La Rambla, admiring the sites, shops, and hoards of people. Stop along the way for some incredible fruit cups or (overly sweet) 1 Euro […]
Day Trip from Geneva to Chamonix and Mont Blanc
This past Saturday, I did one of those “never in my life did I ever think I would do this, yet… here I am” things. Luis and I traveled from Geneva, Switzerland, all the way to Chamonix, France and then took the cable car over 3,000 feet above sea level via the Aiguille du Midi […]
Four Days in Berlin: Solo Trip 2017
Wrote 2016 first, but whadduyaknow- it’s 2017! I spent the first few days of the year on a little solo winter getaway to Berlin. 😉 (Ok, no one does a “getaway” to Germany, but it was a great trip). In all honesty, I didn’t love Berlin in the same way that I love many other European […]
Four Days in Amsterdam: Part IV
I really hope IV is four in Roman Numerals? Someone? Anyone? Anywho… Part I, Part II, and Part III Here we are! Finally on day four…the final day in Amsterdam (since we left bright and painfully early the next day). I was DETERMINED to get my stroopwaffle on the last day. And maybe a pancake, […]
Four Days in Amsterdam: Part III
Part I and Part II! Sorry these posts drag on and on (and on…) but wouldn’t want you to miss even one important detail!!! And neither would you. Like this potato we ate from a place called Jacketz, a restaurant based off of hugggge potatoes roasted with salt and oil and then you add the […]
Four Days in Amsterdam: Part II
Good morning!! It looks like I do have some time to get a few more posts up. I’m currently in Berlin, Germany (alone) so cozying up in the hostel with some tea and their free computer access is a pretty good evening/ early morning plan. Except this is a German keyboard so the ‘y’ and […]
Four Days in Amsterdam 2016
Ok. I think I have a new favorite European city!! Amsterdam is in.cred.i.ble. From the beautiful buildings that line the canals (#houseGOALS) to the insane number of trendy, interesting, and cool cafes, bars, restaurants, and shops, to the coffeeshops, art museums, and abundance of activities…this extremely bike friendly city left me so impressed and a plan to […]
