Hello from the USA!!! That’s right — I’m home!!! The past couple of weeks have been BUSY. I returned to Aberdeen from Prague, finished my final assessments, moved out, and flew home… all within nine days. Even though my semester abroad is officially over, I’m not quite done blogging yet. There’s still so much I …
In one of my most recent posts, I mentioned that wandering around Prague made me feel like I was in a fairy tale. Yesterday, Alyssa and I discovered yet another fairy tale town: Český Krumlov. Český Krumlov is a small town in the southern part of the Czech Republic. It has the second largest castle …
Welcome back! On Tuesday morning, Alyssa and I took a 7 hour train from Prague to Kraków. Our main reason for traveling to Poland was to visit Auschwitz-Birkenau, which was the Nazi’s largest concentration and extermination camp.

Here’s an entire post dedicated to photos from Budapest because I don’t think they would all fit on the main page 😆. Enjoy!
If you’ve read my last post, you probably realized that I didn’t drink much alcohol on my 21st birthday. Don’t worry… I saved that for the next day! By Saturday, I had gone to every place on my list except for one: a ruin bar called “Szimpla Kert”. Ruin bars are popular in Budapest and …
My 21st birthday was one that I will never forget. I started the day by going to the most beautiful café in the world: New York Café. This is one of the most popular spots in Budapest, and I can see why. The place is absolutely beautiful! It looks more like the inside of a …
