Europe Magellan 2019

Prague: July 17th - 24th  Upon our arrival in Prague, we were greeted by a very clean and kept airport with many places to recycle! We ordered a taxi and headed to our home for the next week. We were pleasantly surprised by how cute and clean our airbnb was. We were in a perfect location as well, off on a side street that was quite but still walking distance to everything important and exciting! Once we got settled in we went to the local market and got our food for the next few days. We started to walk around and explore the city and we found the Havelsre Frzisfe which is the oldest street market in Prague, it began in 1232. So it was very interesting to see all the shops and people and to think about how many people had been there before us.  Prague, to me had a similar feeling to Paris in the sense of going back in time. However, Prague still had a much more ancient feel to it, things seemed to be exactly how they were back in the day but just with modern d...

Paris: July 10th- 17th We arrived mid-day in Paris after taking the train from London. The train was a cool and fun experience! It was like stepping back in time that we can take a train across countries it was so peaceful! When we arrived we took the metro to the 3rd arr. which was where we stayed. Our airbnb was not quite ready yet so we enjoyed a much needed lunch at the cafe across the street. Immediately we were concerned that no one would speak english and we would not be able to communicate since neither of us spoke French but of course almost everyone we met spoke English as well. Everything is so relaxed in Paris, no rush or urgency you just stroll the streets and eat when you wish at the closest bistro. My favorite part about each little bistro everywhere you looked was that there was seating outside and just like in the movies you had this tiny table with two chairs that faced the road not each other and enjoy the beautiful sunshine and company!  I truly have never be...

London, England: July 3rd - 10th  London was truly a dream - after we got past our slight hiccup of course. Upon arrival we were greeted by an unclean, bug filled, no hot water airbnb. To our surprise, none of the pictures or descriptions online were even close to the actual representation of the airbnb. So of course we cancelled our reservation and started our hunt for a new place to stay. A piece of advice... NEVER go to London of all places without a place to stay. Well you see the problem was not in finding a place to stay it was finding a place in the correct area , for the correct price, for more than one night. However, a positive outcome sprouted from this unfortunate event, we got to explore four completely different areas of The City Of London that we surely would have never gone to! It was actually kind of nice to experience all the different types of accommodations and deals offered in the city. Our other hiccup was that I (naturally) was the recipient of som...
