I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to travel for a bit after graduation before starting my job! I haven't had the chance to write up a full post about everything we did while in London, Amsterdam, and Paris but I plan to very soon!
Our first day in London after we got food at Borough Market we walked across the river to see Tower Bridge! It was the perfect lowkey afternoon since we were so tired after the plane.
On our checklist of things to do in Paris was to have a picnic in front of the Eiffel Tower. We stopped at a Franprix (a supermarket) on the way from our AirBnB and each got our own baguette (necessary), fruit, cheese, meat, and more!! It was so perfect.
When we explored Versailles we found some rowboat rentals and decided to take one out. After summers taking canoeing and kayaking at camp, I love being in any sort of boat like this. It was nice to take a break at Versailles this way.
Last time I was in Paris (five years ago) Roland Garros was also happening. I didn't have any plans to go see a match but bought tickets the night before we went. It was so much fun to see Nadal play underdog, Schwartzman, and Sharapova play Muguruza too!
I'd definitely recommend checking out the cute store, Merci, which sells cute things like this t-shirt!
Palais Royal was a new part of Paris for me and I loved walking through these black and white stumps and sitting in the garden for about half an hour. It was very relaxing and quintessential.
One of my favorite desserts are Stroop Waffles so I had to make sure to get some while in Amsterdam and these did not disappoint!!!
