Easter is a huge deal in Italy, and is celebrated with varying traditions all over the country. In Florence, Easter is celebrated with the Scorpio del Carro, which translates to the Explosion of the Cart. This tradition dates back to the First Crusades, when a Florentine knight was the first to scale the walls of […]
Stavanger and Jorpeland
I loved Norway in a way I never expected to. The rolling hills, deep fjords, and ever-changing skies have been impossible to forget. Of course, hiking Preikestolen was the most momentous part of my trip, but exploring Jorpeland and Stavanger were quietly perfect as well. You may want to leave this to load for a […]
Quick Picture Post: Back to Cervinia
I can’t believe it took two years to head back to the ski town I adored so much! Odaliz, Laura and I found an apartment for rent this weekend and jumped at the chance to head back to Cervinia. Fondue, stunning views, mountain air, and another ski lesson (where I only fell like… 5 times…) […]
Favorite Moments Around London
London is massive, and with so much to see, it’s important to prioritize and plan. My mom and I are list-makers, and had come up with a massive list of everything we wanted to see and do while in London. However, after our first day we realized that wasn’t going to work. Many of the […]
How to Spend a Long Weekend in Brussels

Glögg and Other Estonian Things I Ate
For Thanksgiving, my friends and I took a trip to Tallinn, Estonia. Estonia was never on my radar until last spring as I tried to procrastinate plan my last minute very spontaneous spring break adventure (Part 1, Part 2, Part 3). Tickets to Tallinn, Estonia were the cheapest on Skyscanner, and I considered heading to Eastern […]
The Last Leg of My Spring Break Adventure
Back in April, I wrote about the first legs of my solo trip to Southern Italy- Rome to Naples, then on to Pompeii. The next section of my trip was just wonderful. From Pompeii, I caught a small regional train to Salerno, and from there a bus to Amalfi. While on the train I found […]
