Destination: Spain

Destination: London

Being a Manchester girl I don't get to visit the busy city of London very often (thanks so very expensive train fares!). But myself and Emily headed down to meet up with our best friend, Emma, who we hadn't seen in five years. After an emotional reunion we had the best weekend shopping, eating and catching up after what felt like a lifetime. I had the best time and if I could I would relive the weekend over and over so I thought I would share a few snaps with you.

Destination: Amsterdam

 For christmas I surprised Kyle with a little get away to Amsterdam, although we live together and see each other every day it was so lovely spending some quality time together, and what's better than exploring a new city together.  We travelled on the ferry overnight so in total we had 2 days and 1 night stay in Amsterdam, which gave us time to do everything we wanted to do but it also flew by. 

I admit it, I fell in love with the city. The streets, the canal, the atmosphere, everything was beautiful. We spent most of the first day wandering round, trying out every pastry possible and even stopped to watch a street performer. Being typical tourists we visited the sex museum, which was eye opening to say the least, and we also went to Amsterdam dungeons, where I hid in the corner hoping for it to end (I love scary things but I am also a wimp). We visited Anne Franks house, if you're ever in Amsterdam you need to go. Curiosity made us wander up the red light district, it wasn't what I expected, although we did venture up on a Sunday afternoon so it was pretty quiet, nether the less it's another thing ticked off my list.

I would go back to this city in a heart beat.

Destination: Paris

My trip to Paris with Kyle was amazing. A weekend away with nothing but walking and exploring the beautiful city. I can understand why they call it the most romantic city, the atmosphere and general feel of it was just lovely. On a side not, a bird did poo on my head on the first day...and we did get locked in our apartment on the second morning, but whats a trip without a few little disasters?

We stayed in the cutest little apartment in the second arrondissement, meaning we were ten minutes walking distance away from the Louvre. We walked everywhere..and I mean everywhere, my legs had never felt such a work out, but it was so worth it. 

My first experience of Paris was so good, I can't wait to go back!
