I absolutely love winter in Philadelphia! And I’m probably one of the few people in the city who actually likes all the snow and freezing temperatures (this explains why I studied abroad in Denmark in the winter), but winter in Philadelphia can be so pretty. I grew up in Washington, D.C. and always loved going […]

You can view the first post from my visit to Eastern State Penitentiary here Like I said in last week’s post about Eastern State Penitentiary, it’s one of the creepiest places in Philadelphia but also an excellent place to take photos. The variety in texture and color can’t be beat! I went over some of the […]

Eastern State Penitentiary is one of the creepiest places in Philadelphia- but also a photographer’s dream. I’m not one for horror movies or anything scary like that, but a visit Eastern State Penitentiary was too intriguing to pass up (and if you don’t like horror stuff, don’t worry, it really isn’t that scary!). I enjoyed […]

Philadelphia’s art scene is pretty incredible, and it’s one of my favorite things about living here. From the famous Philadelphia Museum of Art to the street murals to the music festivals, there’s something for everyone here. One of the most interesting places to see art is Philadelphia’s Magic Gardens, which is covered in mosaics (even on […]

If you’re just tuning into my posts on my trip to Mexico (you can view all previous posts here), I recently took a trip to San Luis Potosí, Mexico for ten days with my parents and sister for her junior world racquetball tournament. I loved visiting there and wish I  could be back there right now, […]

About a month ago, I announced that I’ll be traveling to Italy in April, and I’m so excited! It’s my first time in Italy, and my first trip back to Europe since studying abroad (where does the time go?). Unlike my recent trip to Mexico, I won’t be staying in one hotel in one city […]

You can view the first installments of my trip to Mexico on my San Luis Potosí, Mexico Part 1 and Part 2 posts If you’ve been reading my blog for a while, you’ll know how much I LOVE history. I love learning about random pieces of history (hence my obsession with Vikings), and whenever I’m traveling somewhere, my […]

You can view the first part of my trip to Mexico on my San Luis Potosí, Mexico Part 1 post I’m back with more photos of San Luis Potosí, Mexico! If you missed my last post on San Luis Potosí, Mexico (check it out here), I explained that I went there for ten days with […]

I FINALLY have photos from my trip to Mexico to share with you all! I got back right before Thanksgiving and the holidays were hectic with traveling and my many Christmas posts, but I’ve finally finished sorting through all the photos from my trip. If you missed my post when I announced my trip to […]

I love all the Christmas decorations in Philadelphia every year! It always looks so festive, and December is a great time to visit Philly and see it covered in Christmas lights. One of my favorite Christmas themed places each year is the Christmas Village in Philadelphia! It’s located at City Hall and modeled after a […]
