Spain: Barcelona, Tourist

So a lot of Europe isn’t a avery big fan of tourists.. even though we bring in so much money! oh well. sorry…

Portugal: Porto

Porto is usually very rainy and has bad weather, but the travel gods have shown me generosity and I had super sunny, amazing…

Spain: Barcelona, Foodie

The Barcelona USE-IT map is I think a bit outdated. So some of the places that it suggested that we visit were gone or closed. But! For some of the foods, just save it until you get to La Boqueria. Located by the main touristy road, this huge market sells great deals of…

Germany: Berlin, culture

All the streets of Berlin are packed with creative graffiti and all sorts of art. I don’t know if I am imagining it or not, but the people are efficient but a bit rude. But I am totally not imagining the fact that the Germany entrance passport stamps are placed PERFECTLY aligned with…

Switzerland: Montreaux

I traveled with a bunch of techers to Geneva, and Annie and I wanted to go to Gruyeres, where we could have visited a…

Portugal: Lisbon

Lisbon weather, like Porto, was amazing. Not sure if it was because I was lucky but always like that.. There are two main centers to the city — one right by the Arco da Rua Augusta and one right by the Rossio Plaza. Both have terraces for restaurants and lots of waiters asking foreigners if they…

Germany: Hamburg

Hamburg is a three hour bus ride away from Berlin, and there are these busses called Flixbus that you can take across for just…
