Woke up in Florence, taxied to the airport, flight from Florence got delayed which resulted in me sprinting through the Munich airport (I'm severely out of shape) and then sitting through a 10.5 hour flight where I didn't realize I left my purse on the plane until I was halfway home in the Uber!! -3/10 terrible travel dayMeer informatie

Got up this morning and headed straight for the Uffizi gallery, which contained works from Raphael, Da Vinci, Caravaggio, and so many more. Highlighting the Medici family’s mass wealth while documenting works such as the Birth of Venus and sculptures of Roman/Greek Gods and Goddesses. After wandering around the Ponte Vecchio and getting a matcha (I’m too American for my own good), we grabbed sandwiches for dinner from Pino’s! While all of that was so great, I cant lie - my favorite part was buying two bottles of wine, a bunch of cannoli’s and gelato, and sitting on the steps of the Duomo for hours getting wine drunk. We sprinted through the streets of Florence to a Photo Booth and eventually back home. Cant thank these girls enough for being such amazing humans and making this trip something I’ll cherish forever 💘Meer informatie

The beginning of the end! I head back to Denver on the 30th, so this trip to Florence marks the last city of my Europe trip. I already can’t wait to come back and visit the sweet streets that I’ve explored the past two weeks!Meer informatie

Visited the Capuchin Monk temple *picture not by me because visitors are asked not to take photos! The Pantheon, and the church of Saint Ignacio - a Baroque church. We wanted to finish up the important things, so we roamed (Romed??) around the Colosseum, and packed up for Florence tomorrow. Our feet hurt, we’ve filled up on enough pizza and pasta for a lifetime, and saw some amazing views. Thank you Rome!!Meer informatie

We went to bed at 6am last night (this morning?) after hanging out with our new friends, So it was a late start for these girls. It’s so insanely hot and we’re all exhausted after yesterdays walking and tours, so today we rest - genuinely and truly - after pizza and visiting the urban market, as well as getting boba and a smoothie 💘Meer informatie

Rome - Day 2
25 juni 2022, Italië ⋅ ⛅ 81 °F
Highlights:
- taping together my clothes to be modest enough for the Vatican
-the Italian barista asking “hot or cold?” And if you said cold he would respond “ah okay hot”
- the Sistine Chapel and Vatican museums. I have no words.
- walked a million miles for a bar and met some very attractive 25 year olds and sat in two bars with them for 4 hours

Fun fact: the Catholic Church supplanted leaves over the genitalia of statues in order to make them more modest - ultimately defacing them.Meer informatie

Got up this morning to head to Rome, after some wavy waters navigating the tickets for Rome tourist sites, as well as a delayed flight, we made it to Italy!!
A pretty casual day, we had dinner and walked around the Colosseum, unpacked and prepped for tomorrows long day at the Vatican and seeing all the sites. I somehow started and finished a 500 page novel in between all of that.Meer informatie

Paros - Day 2
22 juni 2022, Griekenland ⋅ ☀️ 82 °F
Today we woke up at noon (some of us hungover, some of us not) after being out until 3am. After doing our best to not go back to bed we made it to the cafe for breakfast (aka lunch). We took a water taxi to Martselo beach, came back to shower and get ready, and had dinner (the highlight being a small orange cat that I fed half my fish to). Finished the night with gelato and now we pack to return to Athens🤩

Greece has been SO fast paced, including travels days (which cut our time in half) we were in Athens for 3 days, Milos for 2 days, and Paros for 2 days. Tomorrow we leave Paros for Athens, and stay the night only to head to Rome the next afternoon!! While I’m having the best time running around and laying on the beach, shopping, and filling up on yummy food, I do slightly wish we were spending more time in each place - but I also wouldn’t sacrifice the different places we’ve been able to see because we have been moving around so much. Happy travels friends💘Meer informatie

Accidentally fell in love with this island and it’s shops, night life, beaches, and architecture 🤍 happy to report my diligence with sunscreen has prevented me from getting burnt (which almost always happens)Meer informatie
