Amsterdam is a city I´ve honestly only ever seen on Instagram or Tumblr, which is weird, since I technically live only a few hours away. Living in Europe is so cool, travel distances are mostly short and there is no hassle with money exchange or passports, but to find the time to travel to places, even if they´re only three hours away, is difficult sometimes. This is why we decided to visit Amsterdam. But only for a day. I spent nine hours in Amsterdam, and this is everything I did.

BALCONY VIEWS / OUR HOTEL IN LISBON
Our hotel is located right next to the city center of Lisbon, one side street away from the main shopping street, and the view is amazing! It´s close enough for it to be located in a calm area surrounded by cute local-seeming restaurants (nothing compared to the restaurants on the main street with their annoying waiters that literally run after you to offer you drinks) but still very present in the city bustling. The weather today was increadibly gorgeous, we walked around exploring shops and a few tourist-destinations and saw a lot of street musicians and artists, which was really beautiful. These balconies remind me of the ones I see…

Portugal Day 1: Cascais
We spent our first day in Cascais exploring the city, just walking around, eating food that was sold to us as traditional Portuguese food (Not sure if it was a tourist scam or not, but it was very fish-based, so it feels right to call it Portuguese?), eating Churros (not very Portuguese), and discovering the sweet city.

Vacation Shop: What I´m packing for Portugal
Spring break is coming up and this year, I´m traveling to Portugal with a very good friend of mine (Who you´ll most likely get to know on here during my trip!). Here´s a confession: I`m an overpacker. Her parents and us two girls makes us a group of four. We´re sharing one big suitcase, which me and Christina get a half of, and each of us will take a carry-on suitcase into the plane. Do the math: I won´t have a lot of space. Truly, I don´t mind it too much. I´m just thankful and excited to go on this trip! If that means taking less clothes, fine by me!…

Beach Please
Hi lovelies! Since it´s currently raining and dreary outside my window, I thought I´d soothe some of my summer cravings by looking back to my last time on a beach. These pictures were taken on a trip to Scheveningen/Den Haag a while back (as in september last year…oops). The sun was out and so beautiful, but the water was freezing. I can´t believe there were actual people surfing (my brother and his friends included!). I can´t wait to finally visit a beach again once spring starts showing itself this year 🙂 Have a great day!
