Hi friends! I'm finally back from my 22 day long adventure in Europe! I'm so sorry I haven't blogged in approximately forever. Finals week hit, then packing for Europe, then I was gone! And I really was planning on blogging during my trip, but my first attempt deleted my entire post and wi-fi was so-so the whole time, so alas, I was unable to. But I'm back now! And I plan on fully going into detail about every adventurous day! It was such a blast and even though it's nice to be home, it was easily one of the best experiences of my life. :) However, I'm still tired and have a lot of thought-organizing to do, so I will leave you instead with my Instagram pictures from the trip and a brief itinerary of where I went and what I did! :)
