Spain

I live in Spain, so I have visited quite a few cities. I would not recommend all of them in one trip! Some of them could be a trip on their own!

Ronda was beautiful and unlike anything I had ever seen before. The main attraction is the bridge. It is crazy how it was built so long ago. If you have ample time to explore Spain, I would recommend coming here. We did it as a day trip- I think that...

Barcelona may be my favorite in Spain. Walking the streets feels like a Disney set due to the fun architecture. You must visit Park Güell, La Sagrada Familia, and Casa Batlló. If you cannot tell I am obsessed with Gaudí!!!

Malaga is the main city near my small town. I go here whenever I need a small town break. It is a beach city with some history. Tons to do in the city. However,I do prefer some of the other bigger cities more.

This is where I live. It is small town with touristy vibes. The food is  okay. It is on the beach, which I love! To vacation I think it is great here, however I would prefer to live somewhere else.

This is definitely one of my favorite cities in Spain. I went on a field trip with my students. In my head, this town is what I imagine Spain to look like. The Mezquita was my favorite part. If you have time I definitely recommend checking it out!

I have been fortunate enough to find cheap flights to some other countries. I only spent a few days in each of them and am itching to go back!

Rome felt unreal. You would be in a city then turn the corner and there would be ancient ruins. I loved it! The food was AMAZING! I feel like this is city where you have to do all the tourist stuff at least once!!

Zurich was such a beautiful city and Switzerland a beautiful country. The rumors are true- it was expensive. However, if you plan for that you can have some amazing meal and views. There are plenty of day trip opportunities to see nature. Also take t...

Paris- you love it or hate it. I loved it. My room in middle school was Paris-themed, so this was a dream come true for me. Once I finally saw the Eiffel Tower I cried. I ate all the foods I wanted but it was not enough!! There are so many restaurant... I would recommend learning basic French phrases. Once I get better at my french, I will be back!

I imagine in this section, I will only add Morocco since it is not Europe. However, that should not make it irrelevant. This was a beautiful and life-changing trip!

Morocco has literally every landscape you can think of. Beaches, mountains, forests, snow, desert, it has them all. It was a beautiful country and do not miss out on the Desert, that was my favorite part. Also, a little note on safety- it is not as s...
