Yesterday, I experienced the magic that was Tivoli Gardens, the second-oldest amusement park in the world. It's 173-years-old, which is older than a lot of things: -Pasteurized milk (invented in 1864) -Toilet paper (invented in 1878) -The zipper (invented in 1891) -Tea bags (invented in 1904) This park's age doesn't take away from its allure. … Continue reading Tivoli: Copenhagen’s own Halloweentown
And here we are... the last day of my study tour... it's really been an adventure! Today I experienced a few "firsts", which I guess should be expected when you're traveling. I guess I didn't have the highest expectations for the final day of my study tour, but today was pretty exciting! The first of … Continue reading The Netherlands: Day Six
Today was our first day in the city of Rotterdam! We luckily were able to sleep in a little bit more today, leading to a much more energetic, happier me. To make the morning even better, the hotel's continental breakfast was absolutely fantastic. There were so many delicious options.

I was able to explore a little bit without the entire tour group, but not nearly enough to say that I have seen it all.

It's been nice... I've been doing yoga, cooking some soup, wandering around fancy department stores and … Continue reading The Netherlands: Day Three

I'm not a fan of being taken to all the worst tourist traps that cater to gullible Americans, but I'm a big fan of not having to stress about … Continue reading The Netherlands: Day Two
As I begin this post, it's 10:00 on a Tuesday night and I'm exhausted. The past three days have been jam-packed with so much activity, I'm not exaggerating when I say that I haven't taken a real break until now. As I'm lying alone in my hotel room, exhausted and ready to crash, I've come … Continue reading The Netherlands: Day One
If you've read any of my other blog posts, you'd know that I've been traveling around Denmark a bit, exploring Copenhagen and eating so, so much delicious food. I've been having so much fun on these adventures with my friends, but up until yesterday, there was something missing... I wasn't meeting any Danes! One thing … Continue reading A little more Danish Culture
