Vienna Waits for You

vienna

  When I went on our Budapest / Vienna / Salzburg trip a few weeks ago, I was sure that Budapest would be my favorite part. I was so wrong.    Vienna was perfect. It was probably the most visually appealing city that I’ve been to in forever. I fell in love and I’m so excited to be returning this weekend.  We arrived around 11 and wandered around the market and ordered some kasekrainer sausage (a sausage filled with melted cheese…

For You, I’d Leave it All… Budapest

  While I don’t think that I could give you a really efficient city guide on Budapest as I only spent 24 hours there, I would love to share my experiences there with you!  We arrived on Friday morning and checked into our hotel. We stayed at Danubius Hotel Astoria, which is a short walk to most of the main sites of Budapest. It was a beautiful hotel and the breakfast spread was on point.   Things To Do In…

Venice Carnival

Venice Carnival

 I spent the past two weekends wandering around the Venice Carnival. As part of my job I’m often sent on day trips around Italy and one of our most popular day trips is to Venice. Carnival was a lot of fun. I’ve now been to Venice four times and it was really cool to be able to see it during Carnival. It is way way more crowded so be mindful of that. If you’re looking to stay there for the…
