Last Pack!

Now in Toronto, getting ready with Jon for our big flight tomorrow! Doing some last minute packing, getting some information down and printing off our tickets. It's going to be a wild wild adventure & I just can't wait... might even try some frog legs while in France? Hmmm who knows, maybe even escargot? Ew, probably not. Wish me luck & be ready for some stories MWAH

Practice Pack - Take 2

Way better packing - I think I could get used to this. Some space for gifts and other stuff along the way. 3 days away.... CAN'T WAIT!!

Mmmm food... how can I resist?

So I decided to make a list of some foods that I will be on the hunt for throughout my trip...

Paris, Arras - baguette, wine, croissants & chocolatines
Amsterdam - dutch cheese, stroopwafels & vlaamse frites
Munich & Berlin - beer, currywurst, sauerkraut & schnitzel
Prague - czech goulash, Smažený sýr & Utopence
Stockholm - swedish meatballs, Surströmming (apparently this is known as Scandanavian ROTTEN FISH because of the smell...maybe not) & Kräftskiva

Some look more appealing than others, but it will be an adventure none the less. Any foods that I'm missing? Let me know if there are any specialties I should be trying out!!

Packing Realization

I woke up this morning & realized my bestie (Jessika...woop shout out) was right... I definitely should NOT be packing to try & fit EVERYTHING in my back pack because then I won't have any space for some cool stuff I can pick up in Europe. A 2nd practice pack will take place tonight. I will eliminate clothes in my mind throughout the day & hope for the best.

Side note - do I really need 2 pairs of boots? Serious consideration... I wasn't made for backpacking.

Practice Pack - Take 1

First practice pack was a SUCCESS - I may fall over in my travels but at least everything fits. I need to downsize, this will be tough... Do I really need all these clothes?

And so it begins...

I believe this is my 3rd or 4th attempt @ blogging... Will I be able to keep up? To be honest, I am not sure. I am blogging about probably 2 of the most popular subjects in the blogging world: food & travelling. Great on originality (I know) BUT my main objective is to communicate with family&friends about my travels and food experiences.

Let's see if this one turns out. You never know, 3rd times a charm right?

Ciao for now <3
