I have a new found love for traveling. I think it began in April when I went to Cabo, Mexico with some friends for Spring Break. I had the time of my life. I literally never wanted to leave. The sun, the sand, the food, the people. I loved it all. (My pictures show it all...)
Since then I have taken every opportunity I can to travel. Which is why when my best friend from high school asked me to come to Madrid to visit her (she's studying abroad) I immediately said yes. I literally didn't even think about it. Why not? What on earth would hold me back from a week in Europe with my best friend? One day later I was booking my flight and making plans. I was a bit hesitant to ask my mom, for fear that she would reject the idea right away. However, when I casually mentioned the convo me and Jess had, she immediately said "You HAVE to go!" Oh my...I love my mom. She has always told me to travel often. Perhaps this is due to the fact that at age 18 she was in Europe for 3 weeks...and her stories are amazing. I'm so excited to make my own memories in Europe.
Madrid for Thanksgiving. How WONDERFUL! I'm staying for 7 days. Over the weekend we're going to fly to Paris. PARIS. You have no idea how long I've wanted to go there.
Oh my! I'm so excited I can hardly contain myself. Europe with my BFF...is there anything more exciting? (Here's a pic of me and Jess this summer before she left for Madrid)
On top of that, I'm planning my 21st birthday (Oct. 19th) with my Pi Phi sisters. Vegas, here we come! Me and Molly took a little trip there during the summer to see Tosh.0 and had a BLAST. To be honest, I don't think we stopped smiling during that entire vacation. I can't wait to go back in a few weeks! (I can't remember which hotel this picture is in front of...but it was GORGEOUS!)
Planning these trips is so much fun! It gives me something to look forward to in the midst of my crazy busy life.
I'm so glad I discovered my love for traveling....I want to see EVERYTHING!

Europe with your bff? Uhm no it does not get better than that! How fun!
Ah I'm so jealous of your time to be able to travel that much. That's awesome!!! Ican't wait to hear all about it.
I am equally obsessed with traveling. I am out of college now and I wish that I could turn back time and do a semester abroad or something of that nature. Thus, I vow to travel somewhere at least once a year. I don’t even care if the traveling is preventing me from saving money from my future house. It will be worth it in the long run! I am jeolous you get to go to Madrid. I just got back from a vacation so now I have to plan another one but at this very moment I have nothing in mind and thus nothing to look forward to. I gotta get on it.
