Europe Travels

So it has been a long time since I've updated my blog!
So first we were in Berlin, which was a very beautiful city with a lot of history. We started off with a free walking tour which showed us the main attractions and allowed us to figure out what we wanted to look more closely at. Our tour guide was hilarious and couldn't help but bash the French (which he partially was) a few times. While in Berlin we also went to see a concentration camp just outside the city. From Berlin we went off to Bonn and checked out Beethoven's house. Then to Cologne which has the most beautiful dome! While in Cologne we also went to the Chocolate museum (very tasty) and also for a boat ride along the Rhine river. From Cologne we headed to Paris, France. Paris had a lot of stuff to check out and we also went on a free walking tour there as well. The Eiffel tower had an amazing view but there also was this church, Sacre-Coeur, just 5mins from our hostel that was on the top of a hill and gave a beautiful view for free. While in Paris we also checked out the Palace of Versailles, which is huge and the grounds are massive! Last night we took the train to Nice and we are looking forward to some relaxing days at the beach. It is hot out here.
Oh and for all you who are wondering if we've met any european men yet, that is a yes. Amy is able to keep them away because she has a boyfriend but sadly I'm not that lucky. Jean asked me back to his villa where we could get to know eachother better. He was an artist and apparently madly in love with me already. There was also Noel who asked me out for coffee and gave me his number. There is never a dull moment!
