I know I haven’t posted much about Nice yet, and I promise I will get to it. But today I took a day trip with hostel peeps to Monaco and Menton, so that’s what I’m going to focus on right now. Monaco Getting to Monaco from Nice is a breeze. You can either catch the […]
This one is for my Nana. Nice, France.
Montserrat I spent today away from Barcelona at a place called Montserrat which is a mountain top monastery in the Catalonia part of Spain. Getting there can take a little bit of time (just over an hour for the train alone), but it is so well worth it. To get there, you first need to […]
Today was all about Gaudi who is probably the most prolific architect that Spain, or arguably the world, has ever produced. The only memory I have from being in Barcelona 15 years ago is exploring Park Guell and buying a colorful lizard souvenir. So, of course, I had to go and see if it was […]
