Budapest: The Better Prague

As you may know, Prague was not our favorite destination, and probably one of the few that was a bit disappointing. Having heard from friends that Budapest was awesome, we decided to give it a shot. And it definitely did not let us down; one of our favorite big city destinations to date. It was what I imagine Prague was like 15-20 years ago: super cheap, chill, not overly touristy, and most importantly, NOT full of smoke and bachelor parties. A wonderful weekend spent with friends {poor Michelle was stuck in Paris studying} in a wonderful city.

A Day Trip to Amiens

After my recent Rouen trip, I decided it was time to start exploring other little towns in France. When Lillian mentioned she had been wanting to see Amiens, and I found train tickets for 10E each way, we decided to make a girls' day trip out of it. To top it off, there was a Christmas market and a light show on the cathedral while we were there.

Friendsgiving!

We may be in France, but we couldn't let Thanksgiving go by without celebrating! Our friends, Lindsey and Justin, hosted a lovely Friendsgiving this past weekend full of laughter, friends, and of course, delicious food!

Fall Recap

It's hard to believe it's December! It seems like the fall has just flown by, and I haven't done a very good job of writing posts of the fun things I've been doing in Paris, so it's time for a quick recap!
