Travel Bug

Well let me start off by saying that a lot has happened in this past month! I've traveled to new places with my Mom, finished studying at Sciences Po, had to say goodbye to some amazing new friends, and today I packed up my little apartment room in Paris.

Besides exploring Paris, mom and I had a wonderful time in both Amsterdam and London, but both decided that we liked Amsterdam a lot more. I won't go into the full details of all of our adventures but will highlight a few of my favorite parts.

Lets make a run for it!

Mother's Day at Monet's Gardens
To start off our trip on the right foot mom and I had to run to board our plane to Amsterdam. You might be scratching your heads.. Teresa and Lily are such worry worts when it comes to time! Well the internet got in our way and made us print our boarding tickets before departure. Long story short we got kindly escorted to the front of the ticket line to get our passes, but then had to run to the gate. We got on the plane with 5 minutes to spare! Sorry mom!!!!!!!

Flowers Flowers Flowers

My hands down favorite day of the trip was going to the Keukenhof Gardens, the largest flower garden in the world! Not only did it smell good, every where you looked was beautiful.




My Paris

Seeing new places was a lot of fun, but I really enjoyed taking my mom to a few of my favorite spots around Paris. We window shopped (in the rain) in the fancy district of my school, went on a picnic at the Eiffel Tower, and went to my favorite museum Muse d'Orsay.

Summer Awaits

Although I'm packing up my small room in Paris, I'm not leaving Europe yet! Tomorrow morning I will go back to the airport once again, but this time to pick up Coleman!!!! I'm beyond excited to see my little bro. Then we're off to Berlin, Munich, and Prague. Once Coleman leaves I'm putting my big girl pants on and am spending two full days in Venice, by myself! Really looking forward to the rest of my stay here, and of course unknown adventures!
