Yours Truly, Berlin.

My final destination: Berlin! Historical, fun, educational, and war. That was my impression of the city summed up in 4 words. I could feel I was in mid winter with all the snow that had fell. And not to mention it was really, reaaaaally cold. When I went around the city there's still many buildings left from the war. What's left of the Berlin wall, Brandenburg, Checkpoint Charlie, and much more. I was amazed cause never thought I could visit Berlin with all the history they had. 

love always, Vienna.

My visit to Vienna was unfortunately short but very memorable. We only stayed there for 2 days so it explains the lack of photos (sorry!). I didn't realize it until I opened the memory card. Anyways, Vienna would probably be one of those cities where you would want to live. It has so many beautiful architecture, then again, this what I love about Europe, they preserve their history very neatly. Even if the buildings date back to the 14th century. I went to the Schonbrunn palace which was still beautiful. And if you ever visit Vienna, don't forget to try their Apple Strudel. I find it unfair that they can have the best Apple Strudel whenever they want. It was the most delicious thing right after my mom's cooking. I also experienced my first snow fall in Vienna. I stood outside at the cold for about an hour just to witness snow fall. It was magical. 

My next post will be my final destination! 

the Schonbrunn Palace

Yes, the best Apple Strudel, ever.

Surprisingly Prague

Aaah Prague, the town that surprised me. Prague is one of those cities where you could go anywhere without using many transportation. You could just simply take your time walking around the town and enjoy the city. If you feel tired, just rest at one of the cafes or restaurants you meet along the way then just continue your walk after. And you wouldn't even have to worry if you get lost because Prague is one of those cities where they have the friendliest & helpful people around. Prague has kept their city history well kept so you could see so many histories still remaining. My trip there has simply explained why it has been used as the perfect location for filmmakers. I'm sure if I could have a chance to visit Prague again it will be as pleasant or even more exciting. Plan a trip to Europe, plan a stay in Prague! 

(my next post will be exploring the city of Vienna!)

the first 6 pictures are located at, as they said, the highest point of Prague a.k.a the coldest area of Prague!

the oldest building in Prague, dates back to the 12th century

The love lock, they put 2 padlocks together which resembles 2 lovers then they lock the joining padlocks here. Rumor has it that it will hopefully join the 2 lovers forever.

the old town

sincerely, Paris.

Paris is as true as what they say, beautiful. The architecture is as pretty as they look in photos. My favorite place would of course be the Louvre. When I arrived I couldn't stop thinking to myself that I'm actually here, I finally visited the Louvre. One of my goals when I visited Paris was also to visit the Versailles but unfortunately due to an sudden accident which my mom's passport was stolen at the Gard du'Lest Metro & the small amount of time we stayed, we had to cancel because we had to rush to go to our embassy to make a new passport. But all in all, I had a good time. Paris has the best lighting through out the city. Nothing beats the cafes in Paris, it's filled with adorable cafes. Would like to visit there again someday, I hope! (my next post will be my walks through Prague!)

Advice for all of you that will be travelling to Paris: I recommend you travel in a group of minimum of 4 people and bring one/more male companion. It's a big plus for you if one of you can speak French, because unless it is a tourist area they don't have many English speaking people. Paris unfortunately has many pick pockets around and they're clever, especially at tourist spots. Just beware of your belongings, keep your passport & money deep in your bag or better yet, on you. But other than that you shouldn't worry too much. I Hope you'll enjoy the City of Lights!
