May 5, 2017 – May 7, 2017 I’ll have to admit, this was probably the trip that I was least excited for ahead of time since I tend to enjoy Western European cities over Eastern European cities. Although there wasn’t much to do there besides eat meat and party, I did end up having a good…
We heart Paris
April 30, 2017 – May 2, 2017 When I heard that my good friends Hope and Raney were heading on a Euro Trip to Amsterdam -> Paris -> Barcelona -> Ibiza, I knew that I wanted to join them on at least one of those legs. Since Paris just a short 3 hour train ride…
Ireland – We’re here for the Craic
April 14, 2017 – April 17, 2017 As I’m sitting in the Dublin airport waiting for my flight to London for work for the week, I’m in awe of how much better the Guinness tastes in Ireland than back home. Although, I must confess, my usual run in with Guinness happens on St. Patrick’s Day…
Skiing in the Alps
March 30, 2017 – April 2, 2017 What a great weekend of castles, skiing, sunbathing, partying, and 100 of your closest coworkers. I’m talking about the annual EY Ski Trip, of course. This year, the festivities took place in a small Austrian town in the heart of the Alps called Mayrhofen. We flew into Munich…
Barcelona is Gaudi
The first thing I noticed upon our arrival in Barcelona was the graffiti. It was on every single door. This might have had something to do with the fact that we didn’t get to our hotel until about 1:30am (thx Vueling – our on time arrival percentage with you is now a whopping 25%). But,…
Very Nice
February 18, 2017 – February 19, 2017 It’s been a dreary few weeks in the Dam, so we headed south for the weekend to the beautiful French Riviera. The weather was absolutely perfect – not a cloud in the sky and no jacket necessary. Thank goodness I dug my sunglasses out of the bottom of…
Beers and Bruges
February 4, 2017 – February 5, 2017 When I first started this blog, I told myself that I would keep up to date on my posts and make sure to finish one entry before going on my next adventure. Well, it’s 9 o’clock on a Friday night, and my next adventure begins in about 10…
Copenhagen – My Haven
January 20, 2017 – January 22, 2017 “To travel is to live.” – Hans Christian Andersen We spent last weekend in a place that kind of felt like a fairytale, perhaps because Hans Christian Andersen himself spent a lot of time in Copenhagen writing stories. (No, we didn’t make it to the Little Mermaid statue…
Loving London
December 16, 2016 – December 18, 2016 London has been at the top of my list of places to go during our time abroad. Not only is the UK home to some of my favorite movies (Harry Potter, the Holiday, Love Actually), but it’s also only a 40 minute flight from Amsterdam, and everyone speaks…
