A New Season in Ireland
I’m here, I’m here, I’m here, Readers! It’s been a long time coming and it’s a bit surreal, but I’ve finally made it across the pond and into this crazy adventure in Dublin, Ireland. Now, I could talk about my first reactions to Ireland (which were SO positive) or what I think of their scones (AMAZING) but instead …
Spring Break in Nice, France!
It’s been a while, but I am back to update you on my recent spring break trip in Nice, France! I was ready for a little getaway before finals and last-minute papers and essays, so a vacation on the beach was exactly what I needed. This time around, I did things a bit differently compared …
Final Weeks in Paris
Three weeks. Three weeks until my time in Paris will come to an end. The past five months I have spent in this city have changed me in more ways than I can count. Being on my own in a foreign country thousands of miles away from the comfort of my own home has been one wild ride, …
My Favorite Museums in Paris!
When I was younger, I would always love going to museums during field trip days. It was exciting to not go to classes and spend the day in a museum! I don’t remember if my parents had to pay anything, but it was probably $10 or less. As I grew older, I realized why I stopped …

Winter Break in Spain: Malaga
So this will be my last and final post on my winter break in Spain! Like I mentioned in my last post, plans were changed last minute so we could get to our final destination a bit earlier than planned. Actually, it was a bit funny because we didn’t decide on how to get there …
Winter Break in Spain: Madrid
Hello again! As promised, I am back to write about the second city in Spain I visited during my week long winter break: Madrid! Madrid is quite different from Barcelona, I might say, other than the fact that they are both the biggest cities in Spain. Upon arrival, I noticed that Madrid had the busy …
Winter Break in Spain: Barcelona
Hello! I have been gone from the blog for a while because as you may have guessed from the title of this post, I was away on winter break! I had a whole week to travel and the possibilities of where I could go were endless. However, the idea of going to Spain had been …
