Explore Monaco
What do you know about Monaco? I certainly did not know much. I actually thought it was part of France, boy was I wrong. It is its own country. With its own culture and interesting quirks. Also it is remarkably hilly. I may have realized that if I knew anything about elevation levels but as…
Fountainebleau: Napolean’s Chateau
Paris is a magical city with much to see but today I would like to venture outside its walls with you. Past the city limits, far out to the forest! For many centuries ago Fontainebleau was the royal hunting lodge, that the great Emperor Napoleon fell in love with.
5 Observations of France
You can never really understand a place until you set foot in it. Even then it takes time to explore and learn in order to really get a feel for a place. In my 2 weeks in France I saw only a small fraction of what it means to be French and live in France.
A Few Things You May Not Know About Amsterdam
I know everyone goes to Amsterdam to indulge in naked women and Mary Jane but I love Amsterdam for many other reasons. Don’t get me wrong, I spent my time in the Red Light District. You can’t go to Amsterdam and not take a walk ( or two or three) around the well known area.
Why You Need to go to Edinburgh ASAP
The idea of going to Scotland had always appealed to me. Even though I never got my letter to Hogwarts I was determined to find it while I was there. Okay, maybe that wasn’t what I was going to do with my time but it still felt magical to me. After all this is the…

My Favorite Place to Visit in London : The Tower
This April I made my triumphant return to England. I went to London about 7 years ago on one of my first back packing trips. Back when I had no idea how to plan a trip and no idea what to do with my time. I had been thinking about re-doing London. Not only did…
A Journey to Versailles
I recently wrote about how wonderful Fontainebleau is. If you would like to escape crowds (which I always do) go to Chateau de Fontainebleau. That is not the case for Versailles.
Nuremberg : Go for the Gingerbread Stay for the History
On my second trip through Germany I wanted to tack a city on that I had never been to before. After a short amount of pondering I ended up choosing Nuremberg. My deep love for all things World War II and the fact that this was the home of gingerbread had me sold quickly .
My Favorite English Palace: Brighton!
Brighton was the city that helped make my decision to go back to England. I had read a few articles and was sold on this adorable seaside town. Give me a beach and I am happy any day. Include a famous pier and a quirky castle and I am booking my tickets stat!…
Exploring the East End of London
The east end of London reminds me of Williamsburg, New York. It is filled with interesting bars, coffee shops and ethnic food. It is where the young and artistic flock to live and to hang out. I knew I had to dive in and explore this area.
