Built up by so many of my friends and fellow travel bloggers, Prague was another city that I had high expectations for. I was worried that it would end up disappointing me, as Amsterdam did the week before, but from the moment I stepped foot in the Old Town, I felt like I was constantly walking around […]
After spending the last week continually hopping from city to city, I was excited to be settling down for a week’s stay in one city. I couldn’t have picked a better location than Munich, which offered us plenty to do for our week’s stay. Our long bus trip from Frankfurt to Munich had us even more ready […]
Growing up a five-minute drive from my grandma, she often became my babysitter whenever my parents had to go out. When it was hot enough this meant being able to swim in the community pool, but this is Chicago after all, so more often than not I was stuck inside her apartment. It wasn’t all that […]
Making our way from Prague to Vienna, we wanted to break up the journey so we decided to spend one night in Český Krumlov. All week we had heard people mention this small town, and it seemed like no one had actually been there themselves, but had heard it was a great place to visit. We […]
With Halloween quickly approaching this weekend, I thought it was the perfect time to talk about my visit to Kutná Hora! Ever since I had seen photos of the Sedlec Ossuary, I knew it needed to be on my Europe itinerary. This little Gothic-styled church may not seem all that special from the outside, but step inside, […]
Every Friday I’ll be sharing a photo from someplace in my travels. This week’s photo is of the Sedlec Ossuary in Kutná Hora. In honor of the holiday today, I thought it would be appropriate to post another photo from the Sedlec Ossuary. If you missed my last post, just know that this is not your ordinary […]
Every Friday I’ll be sharing a photo from someplace in my travels. This week’s photo is of the Prague Castle at night. Set high up on a hill, Prague Castle overlooks the city. Dating back to the 13th century, this castle complex is the largest in the world at roughly seven football fields in length. The complex […]
Every Friday I’ll be sharing a photo from someplace in my travels. This week’s photo is of the Hofburg Palace in Vienna. Even though I didn’t care for the city of Vienna, there’s no denying that the city’s architecture is gorgeous, and in the center of it all sits Hofburg Palace. One the former residence of the […]
If you’ve been to Prague before, then you’ll totally understand that I spent my whole first day there with my mouth agape. It was my first time there after all. I spent the entire day roaming the streets, getting lost down alleys, and just meandering without a purpose. Of course I stumbled along some of Prague’s […]
This week we would like to introduce Jen of The Trusted Traveller. Jen has been travelling most of her life, but it wasn’t until 2009 that the travel bug really started to bite. Images and stories from the adventures of family and friends around the world inspired her to sell her house in Sydney, put her belongs in storage […]
