happy travels
It is very hard to leave the beautiful city of Firenze, and all the wonderful people I have met while being on this trip. I could easily do another 3 months here. But I am very excited that I will be continuing my European adventure and traveling for another 7 weeks. This Friday, Victoria and I leave for Munich where we will enjoy the tail end of “Springfest”. I have heard wonderful things about it and am excited to see more of Europe, as this has been my first time here. From there we are flying down to Greece and working our way all the way up, hitting Croatia and eventually Prague and Budapest. Planning this trip has been enough in itself. We thought the Eurail was the way to go, and it totally it, but the trains still takes forever. From Split in Croatia to Budapest it is a 28-hour train ride. Yikes. Finding relatively cheap accommodation is another thing. Hostels are a great way to do it but they sometimes are a little sketchy. From there we are going to Amsterdam where Victoria departs from at the end of May. I will be meeting my mother a few days later in London and we are going to see Ireland and Scotland. Should be interesting… Regardless, I am very lucky and excited to be able to see so much of the world at such a young age, this really is a once in a lifetime experience.
