EDINBURGH

Monroe and me on The Royal Mile After a gorgeous train ride from Northern England to the wild sheep-covered hills of Scotland, we found ourselves in the capital, Edinburgh. My sister, Monroe, is currently studying abroad, so we planned to meet up in Edinburgh, and it was fun to take a short foray to the … Continue reading EDINBURGH

MANCHESTER

We spent a month in Manchester, and were very happy to have plenty of time to explore a big city. We spent some time relaxing, watching plenty of Netflix, and working to fund this whole digital nomad thing. After two months of high adventure, it was really nice to take things a bit slower. We … Continue reading MANCHESTER

YORK

While posting up in Manchester for a month, we took a fun day trip to York just a short train ride away. We immediately fell in love with York for its quaint medieval streets, its fascinating history, and its rich heritage. We were famished once we arrived, so we grabbed some delicious Cornish Pasties near … Continue reading YORK

PRAGUE

Prague was one of those love at first sight moments for us. From the second we stepped off the bus, we could tell there was something special about this city. It felt so alive! We only had a few days here but we took full advantage of them and explored the city as much as … Continue reading PRAGUE

BUDAPEST

Budapest was definitely the most exotic city we have visited up to this point, and the furthest East we have gone. It just has a totally different vibe compared to anywhere else we have been so far. It was fun to be in a new kind of setting. Unfortunately, we only had a few days … Continue reading BUDAPEST

VIENNA

After yet another incredible bus ride through the Austrian countryside, we arrived in Vienna. Our Airbnb was in a beautiful building (and it was nice to have WiFi again). One funny little surprise was the tiny elevator. It was so small we didn't both fit with our backpacks on, so we had to go up … Continue reading VIENNA

SALZBURG

Salzburg: Where the hills are alive with the sound of music! And they were alive, indeed. Our bus ride from Zurich to Salzburg was breathtaking. The view was spectacular as the Swiss and Austrian countrysides blended together. We love traveling by bus because of the beautiful rural landscapes. As we made our way to the … Continue reading SALZBURG

ZURICH

Zurich was an amazing city; we already miss it. We arrived by train and immediately noticed how incredibly nice everything was. It came as no surprise to us that Zurich is one of the most expensive in the world to live in! On day one we decided to beat the heat and swim in the … Continue reading ZURICH

ZERMATT

The view from our porch in Zermatt After a rough 48 hours, we were finally on a train from Geneva to Zermatt. Trains are meant to be transportation not a form of entertainment, but that train ride was incredible. We rode past Lake Geneva and up through the Alps. Even though we were exhausted we … Continue reading ZERMATT

AVIGNON

Avignon was our final destination in France, and we actually enjoyed it for different reasons than we had originally expected. The initial reason we went to Avignon was to see the famous lavender fields that are found in that region. Our first day out in Avignon happened to be the Fourth of July! We tried … Continue reading AVIGNON
