Madrid

Segovia

Florence

This was definitely one of the more interesting parts of our trip! We took the night bus to Florence from Slovenia and slept the last hours of the morning in a park near St. Michelangelo's Piazza. We woke up in time to see the sun rise over the city and then set out for our hostel. Of course it started pouring rain and we were soaked by the time we made it. The next days were beautiful and we got to experience some true Italian sights, smells, and tastes.

Ljubljana

Graz

Graz, Austria is where I met up with Lena! One of my friends from Project Management at Whitworth. When I was in Vienna she sent me a bunch of cool things I should go see which helped out a lot. I had only one day in Graz, but having a local to show you around means you won't miss anything and see it all in good time!

Vienna

Vienna was a great experience for me. It took about 5 minutes for me to find a cathedral after leaving my hostel. I saw Schönbrunn palace as well as the zoo right next to it. Then the night life was so active! I went out with some people from my hostel and just met a ton of people. There is a section of buildings in Vienna that some locals called the Bermuda triangle because it's easy to get lost and there and pubs everywhere. So much fun.

Salzburg

I only had one day in Salzburg, but I still got to see a lot of cool things! The was the Mozart Haus and the cathedral. Both were wonderful. I sat for almost a new hour in the cathedral just looking around. There was a garden that sat in for a while as well. I had a nice relaxing day here in Salzburg.
