A Look Back at April & A Glimpse Ahead

April 30, 2018

There's a quote that I see pop up every now and again across social media: Only look back to see how far you've come. I partially agree with it, but not completely. Yes, we should all keep our eyes ahead and moving towards the future, but looking back also allows us to see what we want to improve upon to…

Get Fit in Amsterdam: The Best Workouts Across the City

April 27, 2018

Amsterdam may be known as a top city for bikers, but the only bike I got on during my visit was at an indoor cycling studio. I've been biking my whole life but it's been a few years and I wasn't feeling quite confident enough to take on the city streets. Not only is it looked down upon to wear a…

April 18, 2018

Ah Copenhagen, where do I even begin? I've been making my way through a bunch of European cities, and yes, I still have a ton more to see, but right now Copenhagen is my #1. Minutes into my visit I fell in love with this city. I'm not surprised that it's always towards the top of "Best Places to Live"…
