so my little excursion throughout western europe has been pretty good. im in köln right now and i´ve lost any motivation to attempt to speak other languages. when anyone says something in a foreign language i just stare at them like a deer in headlights and simply mutter, "english?". as we all know, i´m horrible at going into detail with things, so here is a short and random(as always) breakdown of things:
Barcelona:
cool Gaudi architecture
yummy food market
lame guys
Caga Tio!!!( one of the most awesome things ever, just get ready for it next Xmas. Caga Tio is making a visit to the states!)
Paris:
hotel on the Champs Elyees
ferris wheel at night
flask......
cheesy euro disco
mmmmmmm crepes
feet freezing from waiting in tourist lines
miles of bones
navigating through the metro like a pro
Monoprix!
Brussels:
BEST WAFFLES EVER!
Christmas beer
more beer and waffles...
flask........
New Years! whohoo : red underwear, 12 grapes and kissing someone- check, check and check(kinda)
spending 10 and a half hours with someone i met the night before
Amsterdam:
double chocolate chip brownie
forgot the flask in brussels =(
really lame guys
getting depressed at Ann Frank house
red light district
somewhere i should visit again
Köln:
nice beds
cathedral visit
travel spork!!!
keeping it real- a.k.a coming home kinda early and posting on lj.
lama?
Tomorrow we leave for Zurich and I have to be back home in Florence by Monday morning. Its kinda funny how i almost dread going back to Florence like it´s a real shithole. But i only have five months left and its back to New York right after. what a great transition, right?
I sort of feel accomplished for writing this on a German keyboard and not messing up much. i wish everyone well. kiss kiss.
