So there are 5 weeks left until I return back to the U.S. and shocking to think how fast time flew by while abroad. Within these coming weeks, I will be country hopping; Portugal, Hungary and Austria. The weekend of November 18th, I visited Lisbon, Portugal. While in Lisbon, I visited Belem Tower, Jeronimo Monastery,…

Is this what school is like
Ciao! This is the last post coming from Rome, how sad is that. I have just over a week left in Rome and it’s so bittersweet. While I am excited to go home for the holidays, I wish I could come straight back to Europe right after. The past two weeks I have stayed in…
The Final Countdown and Christmas Markets
Exactly two weeks until I’m on a 10 or so hour flight back home. I feel a little bad for the stranger sitting next to me because if they try and make conversation I might not stop talking about the fact I’m going for the rest of our flight. Oops. Now that Netflix lets you…
Blog 7
Its hard to imagine that I will be back home in approximately ten days. I blinked and now the semester is basically over; the feeling encompasses the term “bitter-sweet”. Since I last blogged, I took my final trip to Edinburgh, Scotland! At first I initially had doubts as to how I would like it and…
FEEL BLESSED
Hallo! Only one more post till I am home. The opportunity to live in Europe for four months has been thrilling, and life-changing. I could not be more grateful for every moment in my life. Only two more weeks in Northern Germany where 0 degrees Celsius is starting to feel normal! Although I am itching to…
It’s coming to an end
Helloooo!! So last week was not all that interesting except for the fact that I took a daytrip to Paris! Yeah, that’s right… I went there for only a couple hours with one friend that I met from Minessotta Uni! Note for those who are planning on doing a semester abroad: MAKE FRIENDS! The people…
Is it really almost over??
Well, this semester is slowly coming to a close… As of yesterday, I go home in only two weeks. This only recently hit me, along with the fact that there are a bunch of things that I haven’t done yet that I want to do before I leave, like seeing the Changing of the Guard…
Spain-Barcelona (10/06/16)
*flashback* This weekend we planned to celebrate one of my best friends birthday in the beautiful city of Barcelona. After “careful” consideration for a few weeks (really more like a few days) my friend Brittany decided that is where she wanted to go. The total of people for this trip was six, including myself. Three…
Blog Post 11/16
These past two weeks have been filled with… ups and downs. After I returned from my spectacular trip to Budapest, my boyfriend and I continued on our adventures through the city. As soon as our flight landed, we began the complicated journey back home, anxiously fighting the ticking clock as we worried we wouldn’t make…
2 Weekends. 2 Countries. 2 Concerts.
Ok I love Europe. Not only is every city beautiful and incredible and lovely BUT if you want to see someone in concert and they aren’t performing near you, you can just hop on a flight to another country. Or that might just be me. Either way, I love it. First city (and first concert) was Amsterdam. Before…
