thinking back

We have spent the last few days reminiscing about all of the amazing things we have done over the 4 months we have been here. The wolfpack Euro trip still remains one of the highlights. The places we saw and the things we got to experience together can never be replaced. I think I can speak for the other girls when I say I wish I could do it all again :) Here are a few of my favourite shots from the London-Munich leg of our trip.

inverness

Last week Marie and I went up to Inverness for the day. This town is a main hub for the highlands so we thought we should check it out. It turned out to be one of the windiest days this country has seen in awhile, and then the volcanic ash thing happened so our trip was a little strange. We were soaking wet and freezing but I am still glad I made it up there at least for the day.

things got a bit crazy

After our time in Brussels Claire and I ventured up to Amsterdam for a few days. We definitely had an interesting time. Here are a few things we did that I can talk about on the blog: heineken experience, mikes bike tour amsterdam version, visited a windmill and a cheese/clog factory, met up with an old housemate (and one of my favourite girls), the anne frank house, a flower market, and once again got to hang out with Mel and Hayley. Truly an amazing city and by far the strangest one I have been to. Although I think it may have some of the best stories attached to it. Here are a few pictures that attempt at capturing our time there.

This was the end of our week long adventure. It was one of the most memorable weeks of my life, and I can't wait to do more travelling with Claire (hopefully this happens sooner rather then later). xo

brussels: the end

We met up with two of my friends from Etobicoke whose hotel we were crashing for our remaining two nights (anything for free accommodation). I had such a good time with them and it was nice having a little taste of home over here. Our last day was extremely lazy. We showed them around a few places, ate the most delicious waffle with ice-cream and enjoyed the night out. Here are a few pictures that capture it all perfectly.
