de Nîmes
Hi everyone! Another quaint place I was able to visit on my work trip was the French city of Nîmes. If you remember correctly from my previous post about some medieval sites, the Pont du Gard aqueduct provided water for Nîmes for many years. The aqueduct isn’t the only bit of Roman history you can […]
Medieval France
Hi everyone! After spending a few days in Barcelona, my euro work trip continued on to Southern France. I must admit that before this, most of my knowledge of France came from my three previous trips to Paris. This was the first time I was able to explore some of Provence & the Southern coast! […]
Paris City Guide
This time around, Spring had sprung in Paris and the city streets were filled with tourists! We were lucky to have amazing weather the 5 days we were there and we managed to squeeze in A LOT of things! Here is a list of the things we were able to do, as well as some […]
Versailles in Peak Season
Hey everyone! Although we wrote a post last year about our trip to Versailles, we were able to visit again in peak season this past April, and the atmosphere is certainly different. We were lucky last year, since we visited in winter and there weren’t many lines. To see what our first trip to Versailles […]
Monet’s Gardens
Hello again! While we were in Paris, we were able to take a day trip to Giverny to visit Claude Monet’s house. I honestly didn’t know what to expect when we planned this trip, but it was incredible! The gardens were in full bloom, it smelled amazing and the house looked like something out of […]
Montmartre
Hello again! During our week in Paris, we were able to spend a morning in the region of Montmartre. This area is known for ART! (Not because there are a lot of museums, but because of all the famous artists who lived and worked there). One morning is not enough to explore all Montmartre has […]
The Louvre
Hey everyone! Since the Louvre is one of the largest museums in the world (and possibly the most famous), I thought it would make for an interesting blog post. Sometimes people who travel to Paris skip the Louvre, or chose to only go in to see the Mona Lisa, but there is so much more […]
Gardens of Keukenhof
Hello again!! The first 3 days of our week-trip with our Moms we spent exploring Amsterdam. Since we were visiting in the Spring, we were able to take a day trip to Keukenhof Gardens! This was one of the highlights of our trip to Amsterdam and it seemed like we chose the perfect time to visit […]
Amsterdam in Bloom
Hey everyone! Last week, we were lucky enough to meet our beautiful mothers in Amsterdam for a week filled with adventures! We have already blogged about spending New Years (2016) in Amsterdam, but we thought it would be good to share a little about our time visiting in the Spring! In our first visit to […]
The Sounds of Salzburg
Hey everyone!! The hills are alive with the sounds of….Salzburg! Now that you’ve heard about our time in Munich & Neuschwastein, it’s time to talk about the day trip we took to Austria. It’s strange as an American to say that we took a day trip to a different country, but this was actually our […]
