I am so in love with Rome! We woke up around 8 to get an early start on our first day of exploring the city! Our breakfast was down the street from our hostel where we were given yummy apple filled croissants and cappuccinos with chocolate leaves! The guys working there were super nice and the atmosphere in Italy is just so inviting. After breakfast on the walk back to our hostel we passed through a street market. It was full of cute jewelry and clothes and the...

Today it's off to Rome!!! After class Tori, Kyrie, Danielle and I went to print off our tickets and headed straight to the metro to start our trek all the way to Beauvais airport. Our friends had gone there the weekend before when they went to Barcelona and warned us how difficult it is to get to.

We all got headsets that we could flash onto random photos/displays to get more information to read or listen to facts. There was a lot of interesting information about the world wars but the coolest part was do...

Today was so much fun! We went into Paris for the Gay Pride Parade! We went to Bastille where the parade ended and there was a huge concert set up. A big group of us went in the middle and danced like crazy to the music. I had no idea what they were singing since it was in French but it was still a blast. We were at the concert for a longgg time and obviously made time to get wine and ice cream during it. It was cool to see everyone's crazy costumes from the pa...
