Edinburgh is the perfect place to start your journey in Scotland! We spent one day in Edinburgh, half a day when we arrived, and half a day before we left. Since we’d already been to Scotland, we felt ok with just the one day! I’m so happy to start sharing our trip to Scotland! It…
Vernazza probably holds the “most picturesque” title for our entire trip! It was really cool! But, I’m a big baby and it was pretty dirty and SUPER crowded. So not my favorite place but I think if you’re in Italy it’s something you should do! Especially if you’re going up north at all! So we…
Sunday we took the train from Florence to La Spezia! It was about an hour and a half with stops, so not terrible. La Spezia is the town right outside of Cinque Terre, and since we’re always trying to save where we can on our trips it was a lot more affordable to stay there…

The Eternal City with my Eternal Companion! Rome was such a dream. We spent three days there total, two at the beginning of our trip and one at the end before we flew out! And honestly that was plenty for us! Rome is just a huge city with really cool pieces to it. But if…
We flew to Amsterdam the night after St. Andrew’s, because it was so much cheaper flying out of there than out of the UK! And yes, even as an employee I have to pay country taxes, which are crazy high from the UK! We didn’t have time to go into the city unfortunately… :( Isn’t…
