On the last full day of our international adventure, we decided to take an approach that we’ve taken with this entire trip… just go with the flow and see what happened. We had breakfast plans to visit the birthplace of Harry Potter known as The White Elephant. Before this trip I knew the bare minimum […]

Day Ten: This place isn’t real
It’s day two in Scotland and as I’m mentioned in my last blog post, I truly am not convinced that this is place is real. In describing Edinburgh to my friends, I’ve described it as “something out a storybook.” If you think of a old time town that’s extremely picturesque, you’re probably thinking of Edinburgh. […]
Day Nine: Doddling Around Edinburgh
For most of this trip, the coach buses we’ve had were exactly what you’d expect. Today, however, the coach bus that was ordered to take us to the airport definitely outshined the others. We arrived in style to the Manchester Airport in a huge, luxury coach bus. Unfortunately for us, our trip in the luxurious […]
Day Eight: We sat on the famous red couch
With one final morning in Liverpool, our next destination was Manchester. The distance between Manchester and Liverpool was about 45 minutes by bus. Truthfully, we were all tired and so the bus ride felt like 5 minutes by the time we finally arrived. Our first stop was the University of Salford in which their media […]
Day Seven: I drank four cups of English Breakfast tea today…
Our free morning could not have come at a better time than it did in Liverpool. Nothing felt better than waking up without an alarm and having time to do things at our own pace. Around 11:15, we ventured out to find a breakfast place because we just weren’t feeling the hotel breakfast. In our […]
Day Six: From a small town to a slightly bigger city…
I’m a city girl at heart. Everyone knows that. But sometimes it does the soul good to get out of your comfort zone and explore. Waking up in a small town like Stratford-upon-Avon is something of a dream. The quiet, petite town attracts millions of visitors every year because of its most famous resident, William […]
Day Five: Learning the Royal Way of Life
With an early wake-up call today, we found ourselves leaving London and onto another adventure in a new, royal part of London – Windsor. Windsor is located 25 miles away from London. The most famous attraction in the town of Windsor is, of course, the Windsor Castle. Our tour guide, Simon, gave us an overview […]
Day Four: We were guaranTEAd a good time today
I never thought I would find a city I loved almost as much as I love New York. Anyone who knows me knows that New York City is 100% my place… but then I came to London. The way I’ve been describing London to my family and friends is a New York vibe but in […]
Day Three: Fairytales exist in London
Everyone always says the second night of sleep is the worst. I was naive and didn’t believe what was being told of me. I thought that if we did so much during the day that I would be able to sleep not only peacefully at night, but throughout the entire night. This just wasn’t the […]
Day Two: I dodged one too many pigeons today
Hitting the ground running yesterday made not only for a tiring day and night but for a great night of sleep too. After hopping on the Tube, we ended up at Regent’s University. Regent’s University is located inside of Regent’s Park. The park provides an ample amount of greenery for the university. It’s a gorgeous […]
