  • Jägerbomb & Shoko

    May 31, 2015 in Spain ⋅ 🌙 19 °C

    Tonight was such a good night, lots of tequila shots were had! I even did a tequila suicide. The first place Jägerbomb was a small place that only just fit our group into it and after about three quarters of the group left we went to Shoko which was a huge nightclub!Read more

  • Nice

    June 1, 2015 in France ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

    I had an awesome day today, Nice was nice! I spent the day with Kayla, Christina, Kevin, Josh, Danielle, Hayden and Anthony. We spent the day walking around the city and managed to see most of it, we even walked up to the lookout where we got an amazing view of the beach! Somehow on the way up Anthony ended up in a pond and afterwards he stunk so much he had to go to the beach to wash himself! haha. We ended up at the shops to buy an outfit for the Monte Carlo! I managed to find a little black dress. Really looking forward to tonight!Read more

  • Monaco

    June 1, 2015 in France ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

    We have such a good looking bunch, everyone looked great all dolled up ready for the Monte Carlo in Monaco!

  • Red Garter

    June 4, 2015 in Italy ⋅ 🌙 26 °C

    Tonight we went to Red Garter for drinks and a little bit of karaoke! The cocktails were huge and everyone was getting a bit tipsy. Highlight of the night was when Will got up on stage and sung 'Sweet Home Alabama', he was awesome - everyone was on their feet singing and dancing!Read more

  • Florence

    June 5, 2015 in Italy ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C

    Florence was beautiful, I enjoyed exploring with Jessie and Jayden for most of the day because everyone split off after our walking tour. We went to Zaza for lunch, a place that our walking tour guide recommended - it was delicious.
    During the day we managed to see the Duomo, Basilica Santa Croce, Giotto's Bell Tower, The Baptistery & Piazza Della Singnoria! We were also taken to a Florentine leather craft demonstration which was interesting!

  • Vatican City

    June 6, 2015 in Italy ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C

    This place was beautiful, I enjoyed the guided tour except for not being able to understand/hear the tour guide. We went to the Sistine Chapel & St. Peter's Basilica. I was a little disappointed with people in general when we went in to the Sistine Chapel because we were asked to be silent and everyone was talking! Even more disappointing was that they weren't even talking about the Sistine Chapel.Read more

  • Seven Hills Holiday Park

    June 6, 2015 in Italy ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

    This was another Contiki special stop over, the cabins were reasonable. I was sharing with Jessie, Georgia and Ashie. We had a 'I ❤ ROMA' party one of the nights we were there and it was a lot of fun.

  • Rome

    June 7, 2015 in Italy ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C

    Rome, Rome, Rome - You're my favourite place so far! You treated me to Gelato three times today and each serving was better than ten last! You know you have had a good day when you get to eat Gelato for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
    We also went to see the Panthenon, Colosseum, Roman Forum, Piazza Venezia, Trevi Fountain, Piazza Navona and Spanish Steps!

  • Nireas Ferry

    June 9, 2015 in Greece ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

    Well the overnight ferry was torture! It was so cold and I couldn't get comfortable, ended up sleeping on the floor. Only one more two hour ferry until we get to Corfu!

  • Corfu Village Bungalows

    June 9, 2015 in Greece ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C

    This place was beautiful, apart from the hundred steps we had to walk to get to our room every time we wanted to go to the pool. We were all tired when we got there from the overnight ferry, I was planning on a nap but instead ended up day time drunk and getting pushed in the pool fully clothed!
    After that I went back to the room and lets just say having a shower drunk is dangerous haha.

  • George's Boat

    June 10, 2015 in Greece ⋅ ⛅ 28 °C

    What a day! I would recommend 'George's Boat' to anyone, we spent the day travelling around to secluded beaches, jumping off the boat in to the clear blue water and swimming. We probably couldn't have picked a better day, the weather was nice and warm and there wasn't much wind. George had a great selection of music and a lot of dirty jokes 'do you want to play with my balls and long things?' At one of the stops they had water sports and I decided to do parasailing, it was awesome - the view was incredible! Overall it was a great day.Read more

  • Tabepna Gloypos

    June 10, 2015 in Greece ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

    Tonight we got to eat more greek food while watching the dancers dancing to traditional greek music. They explained to us that the amount of ribbons sewn on to the woman's dress is the amount of wedding proposals she had. After we finished eating they pulled us all up to join in dancing and taught us the steps.Read more

  • Candia Hotel

    June 12, 2015 in Greece ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C

    One night stop over before ten of us head over to Egypt and the rest of the group head over to the Greek Island. I am so excited but I think it is going to be weird being away from the group after spending so much time together.Read more
