Ahh. this is the life. well, sort of. I am definitely enjoying myself. Its hard to believe that I will be home in just 2 weeks! it appears as those the speed with which my trip is passing by has only increased as the days until my return dwindle by.
so let's see, I last left you before I went to Brussels. It was beautiful, and reminded me a bit of back home. This is because it had skyscrapers and modern buildings in addition to the very old and classy buildings. The mix was quite fantastic. The infamous Manneken Pis was no larger that a foot tall but amusing nonetheless. I think I enjoyed walking through the park with a waffle more. haha. I was beginning to think this might be one of my favorite cities but I ran into some very unfriendly and unhelpful people at the trainstation and decided against it. lol.
I'm not even sure where to begin with Amsterdam. People say that Las Vegas is sin city but I beg to differ. Amsterdam, was really, just straight ridiculous. I honestly felt badly for the prostitutes in the redlight district (of course, where my hostel was located.) I was constantly smelling weed, which was just a ludicrous thing to me seeing as I relate the smell to illegal activity. So I didnøt really do any of the "Amsterdam-ish" things except visiting the Anne Frank House and the van Gogh Museum. They were both amazing as I was able to recount the history of WWII era (one of my favorites) and learn loads about van Gogh's life while observing his beautiful paintings.
Copenhagen is great. Beautiful people, beautiful city. all that good stuff. I even joined a library while here! haha. and was hit on by creepy old guys, like 40s and 60s. ahh, apparently I either:
a.)look older than my 21 (yes, still 21) years or
b.)am a magnet for creepy older men.
though I knew it before, clearly my find a european lover plan failed. haha. yes, the city is beautiful and I wish I had time to post pictures! but I will continue more later, just time is out.
anyways, Iøm running out of time and have to make this quick. I fly to Berlin and I am very much excited at what is to come. love you all loads!!!
((Joy, I hope you can read this post better now haha))
