When i first arrived in Amsterdam, i thought the whole city and culture revolved around drugs and sex. Well, i was very wrong. this city is known for its beautiful canals and it was seriously my favorite place during my spring break. Other than it being amazingly fun, it was beautiful. here, we went to Casa Rossa's sex show..i believe that it was an experience that everyone should have when visiting Amsterdam. I literally felt bad for the girls who were up there. Gross. but anyway we also went to the Ann Frank House and that was really interesting and cool to see. it was also pretty sad. We saw where she lived and hid out for years. We also went to the Heineken Factory where we learned how they make the beer. we also got to have lots of free beer too! Amsterdam was one hell of a trip..

Spring Break 2012 was the most incredible time I've probably ever had. After 13 hours of a dreadful bus ride, we arrived in Prague. It was just like stepping into a fairy tale. The hostel we stayed at actually turned out to be just like a hotel. it was beautiful and so clean.
In Prague there were absinth shops everywhere selling different types and kinds of it. (even ice cream!)..
On the first day of Prague we went on a walking tour and saw Charles Bridge, the Astronomical Clock, and we had the most delicious Czech food in the city, for really cheap. (219 KC each) about 10 euro! ...
Later that night was the pub crawl which was so much fun. We started at an old church which they converted into a bar...drinks were free for the first 2 hours (of course there was barely any alcohol in them), and the next couple bars were really fun!
The second and last day in Prague we went on a beer tour, we visited 3 different bars and tasted there most popular beers. I'm not a beer lover, but I have to say, some of the beers were not that bad! Later that night we had dinner at the hotel and it was surprisingly really good; mexican burger with fries (YUM!). After dinner we went to a five story dance club. it had different music on each floor and it was completely packed with people. It was a great time in Prague, now...off to Berlin, Germany!

welcome to the French Riviera! This is seriously an amazing place to visit, and it was so beautiful outside for the weekend. During this trip Katie, Stef, Camille, and I walked around the beautiful city of Nice. On Friday we took a train into Monte Carlo. it was gorgeous. I gambled and won 36 euro, and I lost about 30 so I am still up 6 euro! Later that night the fun really started. We went to a bar with a live band, lets just say i don't recall everything. The next morning was not fun at all......until after the train ride to Cannes. There was a beautiful beach which we sat on. it was chilly, but the sun felt so good. That night was amazing too! We lead the Carnival Parade! Stef got picked up and put on a float it was awesome. The last day of this trip we laid on the beach for hours and soaked up the beautiful sun. it was absolutely gorgeous. What an amazing weekend!
