The weekend after my Berlin trip, I went to Munich. This time it was a really small trip with just three of us going, myself and Jon & Kelly (I group them together because they are married). From early on, I’ve been close to Jon & Kelly because they are from Cleveland so they like … Continue reading Munich- Bavaria, Beer, Lederhosens

Berlin- or should I call it land of the Kreutz
Growing up with the last name of Kreutz, I always wanted to travel to Germany. My dad said our last name was German but I didn’t know much about the country or even my ancestors that came over to the US. I had never met another Kreutz in the States but I heard that it … Continue reading Berlin- or should I call it land of the Kreutz
Prague- my first ten days
I had always heard great things about Prague. Friends and family that had studied or traveled there always had good things to say about it.

Dubrovnik in 48 Hours
Last night I returned home from Dubrovnik, Croatia from what was one of my favorite vacations of my life. I have never seen anything like the city before.

London Calling (my 48 hours)
Traveling to London always interested me. Besides the obvious fact that they speak English, it always seemed a place I could be comfortable in. Everyone has high praises for it and it wouldn't really take me out of my comfort zone. I've long been a fan of Sherlock Holmes and James Bond so I always … Continue reading London Calling (my 48 hours)
Paris in 48 hours
Day 1 The train from Amsterdam to Paris was an easy 3 hour ride through the countryside of southern Netherlands and Belgium. It was nice riding through all of the small towns and getting out of the city for a bit. I arrived around 10:30am on a rainy day. Since my phone didn't have data … Continue reading Paris in 48 hours
Day 1 and 2 in Amsterdam
Day 1 I left Atlanta at 6 pm on Sunday and woke up in Amsterdam 8am on Monday. I pre-bought my train ticket so I was able to half sleepwalk through customs and onto the train that takes you from the airport to the city center. As I leave the train and head toward … Continue reading Day 1 and 2 in Amsterdam

If you’re like me, you simply want to know about how much will I spend during … Continue reading Is Amsterdam affordable… not sure but here is what I did
