Europe Summary

I'm back!!! My trip was pretty awesome. I don't think I will post any pictures here, probably just on facebook. Everyone always asks me which country was my favorite, I honestly can't choose. England was England, cool accents, cool taxis, something to see around every corner, and the best looking men in my opinion. France was exactly how I imagined it, all the stereo types were true. People really do walk around with baguettes in one hand and a cigarette in the other. Nice might have been one of my top favorite cities. Sitting at the beach at night eating Pringles was one of the best moments of my trip. Italy was like France but with more people, more history and more sun. Wine was so cheap in Italy, we went to a fancy restaurant and on the menu there were different prices for wine, I assumed the one for 2 euros would be a glass but they ended up giving me a huge jug!! Austria is one of the most beautiful countries ever. Rolling hills, huge mountains, amazing lakes and beautiful trees. I would live there. Vienna was also top of my list. Germany reminded me so much of BC. except their beer is cheaper than water. Oktoberfest was the craziest thing I have ever witnessed!!!!! I'm determined to keep learning German and go back some day. The Netherlands was amazing too. If I had to describe The Netherlands in one word I would say BIKES!!!! I have honestly never seen so many bikes in my entire life. Amsterdam was in my top cities. We met with my friend Elizabeth and her BF there and hung out for a couple days. Belgium... the waffles really are amazing. Belgium by far had the nicest people in Europe. As for Hostels, I was surprised how good they really are and how easy it is to meet people. The trains were pretty good too, we only ever had one minor problem. I'll try do another post more about my trip soon.
