These past two weeks have been incredible. They certainly revived my energy and spirit about being abroad. I absolutely loved traveling to Rome and Barcelona. For Rome, I went on a tour with Weekend Student Adventure. This was an awesome decision. I had a great guide and the people on my tour were amazing! If…
When Hail is Full, the Bitterly Cold Will Walk the Earth
It’s late November, sunsets are at 4:30, and it’s easier for me to see my breath than a reason to get up on 35-degree mornings. Fortunately, my 9:00 was cancelled this morning, and I stayed in bed until the sunlight peeking through my window had warmed my room just a little more. The temperature filter…
Weekends: To Travel Europe or Roam around Rome?
Ciao Regazzi, It’s been a few weeks since I’ve last posted, 5 classes and travelling on weekends has me swamped. but I’m back and have the week leading up to Thanksgiving with little to no homework and a lot of free time to relax:) Weekend trips or staying in Rome is one of the harder decisions…
Oktoberfest (10/01/16)
*flash back* This trip was planned 4 days prior to the departure date. Two other CAPA students posted about the opportunity to go to Oktoberfest with the company Stoke Travel.

Eleven Eleven

This past weekend, I spent my days in Amsterdam. I went with Ada and Ellen, another girl that I have met during my time here at Maynooth. The plane ride was nice and short, and my playlist was perfect for the mood so that helped for sure. We arrived sometime in the evening, and Elexsa…
Home in 30 Days
A month from today I go back home and get to cuddle my pup and finally speak with good friends and family in person. The countdown on my phone keeps me going honestly. My body is ready for two weeks of non-stop eating because I miss Hispanic and vegan food so much. I also miss…
Reflection Tuesdays
November 22nd One more month left. One more month of cold mornings, train rides to the Bremen Hauptbahnhof, rainy days and streets filled with bakeries. Quite frankly I will miss Germany. I never wanted the time to fly by because I do like this place very much. The University is alright, not my favorite because…
Can we just take a second…
Hi.. so, really, can we just take a second to appreciate the fact that I will be back in America in 3 weeks… isn’t that sad?? On a happier note, you are not going to believe what I did this past week… I went to the Barclays ATP World Tour Final! (for those of you…
