While the sun was setting, we arrived in Prague, Czechia. That city was so cool. Everywhere I looked, there were fancy streets, beautiful flowers, and fantastic castles. We tried to find a place that sold Trdelnik, but everything was closed since it was nighttime, so we headed to our hostel which was super difficult to…

Yet again another country I loved, Budapest, Hungary. Everything was so cheap, so we got a bunch of snacks and gelato and everything nice. Our hostel was called Hello Hostel and it was one of my favorite hostels we stayed in. I could have spent a week there. The next day we walked around everywhere…

At 1:30 in the morning, we arrived in Athens, Greece. My dad and I shared a tiny blanket and laid on the floor of the airport for a short rest and then woke up and saw the sunrise in Greece which was so pretty. We spent the day around all of the ancient ruins of…

We took the midnight train from Munich, Germany to Udine, Italy.  After that, we headed to Venice, Italy! We got to eat some delicious Italian pizza and amazing gelato. Venice is also an amazing city, and I didn’t see a single car there because the streets are all water, so people take boats everywhere! We…

We got another rental car and drove to Koper, Slovenia. Slovenia was another super pretty and underrated country! We saw a little pond with lily pads and flowers in it which made my day. We drove through a super pretty scenic road that showed us some amazing old houses, churches, castles, and a lot of…

I don’t know if there is anything as pretty as the drive from Switzerland to Liechtenstein. I just absolutely love the mountains so it always amazes me. When we got to Liechtenstein, we hiked up to a super old and amazing castle on a hill and saw an outlook of basically the entire country because…

After driving through the night, we made it to Switzerland. I think Switzerland is hands down the most beautiful place I have ever been. We saw Mount Blanc and the mountain range literally surrounds you and all you can see is mountains. I could not stop looking out the window and just appreciating it as…

My dad and I woke up at 4 the next morning so we could get on the road for our next adventure which took us all the way to Paris, France. Our hotel was super sketchy but I loved it so much somehow. The next day we toured everywhere in Paris on rental bikes! It…

Luxembourg was seriously so cool. It is small, but it is packed with castles, rivers, and greenery for as far as you can see. I was able to stand by a castle on the top of a really cool hill that showed a beautiful overlook of the city and all of the beauty that it…

Our next stop was Brussels, Belgium. There, we saw a monument called “Manneken Pis” which is a statue of a little boy peeing. I also bought an authentic Belgian waffle which tasted amazing. Our next drive was one of the most beautiful scenic views I have ever seen. We drove through the whole country of…
