Flashback - European Backpacking Extravaganza
Who: Justin (my bro) & I
What: 3 months traveling
Where: England, Holland, Belgium, France, Germany, Austria, Czech Republic, Switzerland, Italy, Greece, Spain, Ireland
Why: Why not???
This was one of the best trips of my life
Reasons why:
1. Justin and I grew tons closer, made some killer memories, and didn't kill each other (he is one of my best friends)
2. I gained a sense of what I was capable of
3. I gained a greater appreciation for other people, cultures, and customs (we are all brothers & sisters, lets just all get along. LoVe & PeAcE!
Backpacks, passports, tickets Europe here we come!
We did a lot of this, walking!
And a lot of this - sleeping over night on the ferry ride to the islands . We would try and book all of our trains, ferries, & buses over night so we would have a free place to sleep.
England, oh England.
Check out the guards face at Buckingham Palace, hilarious!!! He is looking right at the camera.
Welcome to 3 months of communal living! Next time bring ear plugs and an eye mask to shield out light.
Fish n' Chips English style = Awesome memories of our childhood in New Zealand
Holland = crazy people, drugs, red light district, bicycles, and Beautiful streets
Ahh my favorite lady of all time.
Check her out: reading, little tree = little shade, sitting on a little stool = TOTAL AWESOMENESS
Had to throw one of these in. Amsterdam!!!
Yes we did have to go see the famous windmills
Justin doing his "sexy" pose!
Belgium, again the most enchanting streets and homes!
Chocolate lovers beware Belgium will suck you in.
Chocolate & Waffles = I am in Heaven
Rome is the coolest place to see things how they were billions of years ago. In the streets you would see massive pillars just toppled over. It seems as though nothing has changed
Venice Italy city of romance, to bad I was with my brother lol
Look at how enchanting this city on water is
What the heck is all I can say about this!
My favorite statue of all time
Fresh markets are the BOMB!!!! Fresh produce, meats, and pretty much anything else you can think of.
Cinderella's castle
Justin in Germany with all that's left of the wall
A day of mourning and pain. The air at concentration camps penetrates your soul!
Paris France
Check out Justin's face, he is super excited to be here
After a million museums, art galleries, and exhibits they all start looking the same
Mont St Michell (western France)
Mick, you made me laugh hysterically. I am laughing right now as I think about you, thank you for that. Mick was a traveling music street busker.
Justin and I practicing our war skills
Happy Backpackers
All over Europe there is awesomely cool random art
Classic
Corfu (and island off of Greece) there were this (nasty) kittens that loved Justin
One of my favorite days, 13 backpackers with 13 ATVs roaming the streets of Corfu. You should have seen the locals faces as we can barreling down the road.
