Amsterdam was probably one the most expensive places we have been thus far. It didn't stop us from having a lot of fun while there (just tried to stay on budget for as much of it as we could). There's a fine balance between staying on budget and remembering that this is a once in…
Month: August 2019
Dublin, Ireland
The luck of the Irish was not exactly on my side when we got to Dublin. We arrived super late in the evening and didn't get to our air bnb until midnight. I had caught a cold as we were leaving Scotland, so I was a mess by the time we finished our day of…
Edinburgh, Scotland
After being on the go every couple days we were ready to be able to settle somewhere for a week! Luckily, we were able to stay with Scott's cousin, Jen, in Edinburgh during one of the biggest music and arts festivals in the world, the Fringe. We arrived to Edinburgh very late in the evening…
Prague, Czech Republic
Our time in Prague was short and sweet! We really only had a little under 48 hours there so we tried our best to make the most of it. It was nice getting back to a place that wasn't nearly as expensive as Munich. Overall, we found Prague to be an incredibly affordable place to…
Munich, Germany
I might be jumping the gun on this one, but I think Munich will be my favorite place in all of Europe. After a quick flight from Nice, we were in the most comfortable weather since we started traveling. It reminded us of home. Green, lush, perfect temperature, everyone biking and outside enjoying the parks.…
Nice, France
Okay, we have a predisposition to not really enjoy France, so I was a little hesitant to go back and had zero expectations for Nice. To our surprise though, we were big fans of Nice! Our first day we arrived pretty easily into the airport and took a bus to the air bnb. We've really…
La Maddalena, Italy
I have been so excited to write about this place! Scott and I both agreed that THIS was the best place we have been in all of Europe. The smallest, most quaint little island, a hidden gem that has yet to be discovered by major tourism. We were in heaven. We were told that tourism…
Sorrento, Italy (and a lil’ Naples)
On our way from Venice to Sorrento we had to make a quick overnight stop in Naples. I'll keep the Naples bit short, but basically we don't plan on going back there. We were already delayed out of Venice, which caused our inbound time to be pushed an hour or so. It was not a…
Venice, Italy
The place I have been waiting this whole trip for- Italy! I've wanted to go to Italy since forever, everything about the food, culture, architecture, the romance of it all appealed to me. So far it has not disappointed (well we've had a few mishaps, but for the most part it has been spectacular). We…
