Lucerne, Switzerland

On May 19th, my sister and I took a flight to Zurich, Switzerland. We spontaneously booked a cheap flight from Skyscanner (only on our flight home did we find out why it was so cheap, but I will get to that later), and decided to plan a trip around the flight. Our connection was in London. […]

I Went GREEK

We had just finished up Birthright in Israel and were now headed to Athens. The Birthright trip allows you to extend your stay for up to 3 months. The only catch is that you must fly back out of Tel Aviv. When we landed there were actually a bunch of Birthright kids who were extending […]

Walls Were Not All Meant To Divide

I am sorry for not finishing up my Israel blogs sooner, but there have been so many world events going on recently. It is terrible to hear about all the horrible issues going on around the world and even in our own country today in Orlando. My birthright trip had just been to Tel Aviv […]

ISRAELI a cool blog

Before I begin sharing all my Israel and Greece adventures I want to give a disclaimer. There are a myriad of political and religious aspects that are included in my blog posts. These are just my opinions and I am hoping to remain unbiased. I am not taking sides, but only relaying what I observed. If you have […]

Proud to be an American

So surprisingly my life has gotten way more interesting than my last bird seed ridden post. I partied in a VIP club, witnessed the 9/11 Memorial, strolled around the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens and visited the Natural History Museum. I AM 21 YEARS OLD FIRST OF ALL! A friend of a friend of a friend got […]

I found my name on every keychain…Scotland and the Bonnie lassie!

Okay so now here is all the information you need to know about Scotland (I know you are all so excited to read this!) We arrived early in the morning in Glasgow. The flight into Glasgow was cheaper, so we decided to fly in and out of it. We had no idea what there was to […]

Walls that stand for peace (Northern Ireland)

Posted on May 4, 2015 Leave a Comment

Hey everyone! I have been traveling for an entire week so I will have to split this post into two just to make sure they are not getting too long. The first part of my trip was to Northern Ireland. If you are not sure, it is a separate country from the Republic of Ireland, […]

In Bruges (It is the title of a movie and a city in Belgium)

Posted on April 21, 2015 Leave a Comment

For anyone who does not know, Bruges is a small town 30 minutes from the coast in Belgium. It is sometimes called the Venice of Northern Europe because of its various canals that run through the city. For our 2 year anniversary, Dillon and I took a weekend trip here. I won’t get all mushy […]

Croatia (Zagreb, Plitvice Lakes, Zadar and Krka)

Posted on April 9, 2015 Leave a Comment

We spent an entire week in Croatia so this blog post will be split up based on the different places we went. First though, I have to mention our train from Budapest to Zagreb, Croatia. You can first enjoy this selfie we took on the train. What was supposed to be a 6 hour train […]

My house in Budapest…I don’t own one

Posted on April 8, 2015 Leave a Comment

We finally arrived in Budapest after our overnight train. Since it was 6am and nothing was open, we resorted to a Starbucks right outside the metro station we got off at. Our next mission was to find Jenn, who was meeting us there. Since she flew in and was walking around early with nothing open, she […]
