HEIDELBERG – THE GEM OF THE RHINE

November 25, 2017November 9, 2018 ryanineuropeGermany

I have become a frequent visitor to the charming and history-filled town on the Rhine. Luckily for myself and for all you world travelers, Heidelberg was spared during World War II bombing raids, and thus the city remains intact … READ MORE →

STRASBOURG – A TASTE OF GERMANY IN FRANCE

November 23, 2017November 9, 2018 ryanineuropeFrance

For those of you who are students of history like myself, Strasbourg is a city that has been tossed back and forth between French and German empires and kingdoms for centuries. Hundreds of years ago when Strasbourg was apart of the German Empire, it profoundly influenced the city, with Germanic architecture seen almost everywhere … READ MORE →

KRAKÓW – EVERYBODY’S FAVORITE POLISH CITY

November 22, 2017November 9, 2018 ryanineuropeKrakow

Before I came to Europe to study abroad, I never intended to visit Poland. We all have our preconceived notions about places we’ve never been, and Poland was one for me. Then I heard RyanAir was offering €10 ($11.80) flights to Kraków. I was sold … READ MORE →

ROAD TRIP TO SWITZERLAND (PART FOUR) – BERN

November 15, 2017November 9, 2018 ryanineuropeBern

While I thoroughly enjoyed seeing and driving through the Swiss countryside, it was delightful to end up in the country’s capital. Most people think the capital of Switzerland is Zürich or Geneva, but no, it’s Bern! And there we were, walking in the gorgeous old town that sits on a ‘U’ shaped river … READ MORE →

ROAD TRIP TO SWITZERLAND (PART THREE) – TITLIS

November 9, 2017November 9, 2018 ryanineuropeSwitzerland

Few places in the world inspire jaw-dropping moments. Titlis—a mountain in the Swiss Alps—is one of those places. If you ever want some of the best views witnessable, add a spot like Titlis to your bucket list. Titlis is one of the most massive mountains in Switzerland and is accessible in stages by a rotating cable car … READ MORE →

ROAD TRIP TO SWITZERLAND (PART TWO) – INTERLAKEN

November 5, 2017November 9, 2018 ryanineuropeInterlaken

In the second part of this Switzerland road trip series, we set off to explore the two lakes encompassing Interlaken—Lake Brienz (Brienzersee) and Lake Thun (Thunersee)—and all the towns around those lakes … READ MORE →

ROAD TRIP TO SWITZERLAND (PART ONE) – LUCERNE

November 1, 2017November 9, 2018 ryanineuropeLucerne

I am introducing the first of a four-part road trip series. I gathered three friends I met at the university, rented a sporty little Audi A6, and off we went. The first stop was Lucerne—an old city that sits on a sizable lake and is one of the most beautiful cities in Switzerland … READ MORE →

A WEEKEND IN PARIS, THE CITY OF LOVE AND LIGHTS

October 25, 2017November 9, 2018 ryanineuropeFrance

No European trip is complete without a stop in Paris. As one of the most beautiful and visited cities—with nearly 7 million tourists year—Paris has something for everybody. At the end of my weekend, I was left with a yearning for more and vowed to come back as soon as possible … READ MORE →

VIENNA – THE BEST CITY IN THE WORLD

October 20, 2017November 9, 2018 ryanineuropeAustria

Vienna is winning big right now. It has been voted the world’s most livable city seven years in a row; is where snow globes and PEZ dispensers were invented; and was home to Sigmund Freud, the famous psychologist and Mozart, the famous composer. It is an immense city that is full of museums, churches, statutes, palaces and more … READ MORE →

24 HOURS IN BRATISLAVA

October 15, 2017November 9, 2018 ryanineuropeBratislava

To be quite honest, I didn’t even know Slovakia existed until a few years ago. Anyways, just an hour east from Vienna by train lies the capital of the Eastern European nation. Set right next to the Danube river, Bratislava is home to a sensational baby blue Catholic church, a thousand year old castle, and a charming old town … READ MORE →
