The past couple of days I've gotten the opportunity to do a bit of traveling around europe! Last weekend I popped on over to Milan, Italy with Mylisha for the day. It's only a 3 hour train ride from our town, so we figured it was a good way to spend our saturday. While there I've decided after I master french (it will happen, I swear.) I will learn Italian!

For St. Patrick's Day I went to Dublin, Ireland for a couple of days. For those of you who know the awesome travel writer Rick Steves, he has a son Andy who does weekend trips in Europe for people studying abroad. The program is called WSA (weekend student adventures) and each weekend he goes to a different city and organizes trips for college students. He has programs in Prague, Dublin, Paris, London, Swiss Alps, Rome and Barcelona. If you're ever studying abroad in Europe, I highly suggest you check out his program, because it was amazing.

I met so many awesome people and had 4 jam packed days of fun! We had VIP tickets to the parade, toured the Guinness factory and got a bus tour out into the countryside. Going there was the best decision I've made so far this year.
