Are you planning a trip to Amsterdam?

I’ve put together my entire three-day itinerary for you to take some inspiration for your own Amsterdam travels!

Looking to book a trip to Paris and don’t know where to start?

From the hotel we stayed in, to the restaurants we chose to eat, here is the full list of everything my husband and I did on our three days in Paris!

I don’t remember what I expected from the food in Amsterdam, but I didn’t expect to be so blown away by the quality of every single thing we ate!

Waking up on the last day of our honeymoon felt so sad. We’d been married during the pandemic, and the honeymoon was something we continued to look forward to for so long. And now it would be over.

Our first day in Amsterdam was absolutely magical, but it was a lot of going from place to place and seeing the sights.

By day two, we’d gotten the initial excitement out of our system and gave ourselves the grace to take our time exploring.

After three days in Paris, my husband and I said goodbye to Paris and headed to the station to hop on a train to Amsterdam! 

I knew the food in Paris was going to be on another level. But I didn’t expect every single thing we ate to be spectacular. 

Here are all of the things my partner and I ate on our trip to Paris!

I don’t know if I’d ever tell anyone the entire story of what happened in Amsterdam. But I’ll give you the gist.

Arriving at Berlin, our second-to-last stop on the Europe trip felt extremely bittersweet.

Before even leaving for this Europe trip, a few friends of mine told me I would love Prague. They claimed it was very much my style – quirky, artsy, very bohemian. So as the bus pulled into Prague, I was already super excited.

Our group would only be spending one night in Salzburg, Austria.

On our way to Venice, we would be stopping for dinner in Verona.

Before heading to Rome where we’d be spending another two days, our group stopped for a walking tour of Pompeii.

I had no idea what to expect from our days spent in Sorrento and the Amalfi coast. That was what I enjoyed so much about this Contiki tour: you’d be in a place you never thought about visiting and have a great time that you never would have otherwise had.

Once we left Cinque Terre, our next stop would be a night in Florence, briefly stopping in Pisa to see the leaning tower and take The Photo.

Our first stop during Italy week was Cinque Terre – the five small towns of Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore.

I was excited to knock another country off my list and have some fun with this awesome group. So we piled onto the bus in Nice and headed to Monaco for a night at the Monte Carlo.

I had no idea what to expect as our Contiki bus drove into Nice that evening, but it definitely was not beautiful beaches and palm trees.

Arriving in Barcelona and driving around the city, felt like a dream. This Spanish city was on my list for a few years now, and I was so stoked to finally be there.

We arrived in San Sebastián on January 20, which our Contiki trip manager told us was actually San Sebastián Day.
