Today, I will board a plane and leave the country for the first time. I’m headed to Europe! Hungary, Germany, Austria, and Belgium to be exact. I’m extremely excited about this adventure. It’ll be a whole new experience. A brand new world! (Cue Aladdin music) So, to celebrate and hold all of you off until I get back and can blog about it, I thought I’d share with you a list of things I’m looking forward to doing/experiencing. Enjoy!
- Flying on a huge plane! I’ve only traveled on smaller planes throughout the U.S.
- Trying plane food. Yes, I’m weird. It probably isn’t that tasty but whatever.
- Possibly seeing the Eiffel Tower from the plane! Totally snapping pics!D
- Visiting with relatives whom I haven’t seen in YEARS.
- Driving on the opposite side. Should be interesting!
- Drinking copious amounts of seltzer water. My favorite drink. Bubbles for days!
- and beer! tons of glorious German beer.
- Being in awe of REAL castles and wishing I was Royalty or a Disney Princess.
- Trying to put all of those years of German class to use. We’ll see what I can remember.
- Trying the gelato my dad hasn’t shut up about for probably a decade.
- Seeing forests and historic buildings that aren’t comparable to what is in the U.S
- Trying coffee! Hopefully at a cool coffee shop. #CoffeeBeansWithBecca goes international!
- Going to a music festival (Balaton Sound) and seeing my favorites, Krewella! Along with Armin Van Buuren whom I’m incredibly excited to see for the first time.
- Visiting where my grandparents grew up.
- Hopefully cheering on Germany in the World Cup at a German bar.
- Visiting a PR agency in Germany. Fingers crossed I can make this happen.
- Experiencing the European culture. I hear it’s a bit different. 😉
- Driving 100+ on the Ubahn. Pedal to the Metal!
- Visiting and taking a dip in the largest lake in Central Europe
- Visiting with my friend Peter who was an exchange student at my University.
- Trying new and interesting foods. I’m not picky and will try anything once.
- Giving social media a bit of a break…Wait, did I just say that?
- Tons more but I don’t want to bore you.
I can’t wait to share my experiences with you all when I return. Auf Wiedersehen, USA!
