Europe

You probably know by now that Matt and I went on our honeymoon to the Austrian Alps and Bavaria, and it was amazing! Since I’m a photographer, I take a lot of great photos of Matt when we travel, but other than some selfies, we really didn’t have many good photos of the two of […]

On our honeymoon, Matt and I visited not one, but two castles in Germany! Herrenchiemsee was the second castle we visited, and I loved it. It’s basically a miniature Versailles on an island in the middle of a lake- how cool is that? I’ve visited the Versailles of Denmark, but the Versailles of Germany is […]

While we were on our honeymoon in Austria and Germany, Matt and I tried to see some unique and off-the-beaten-path places, and Burghausen Castle is one of the most unique palaces I’ve seen. At over 1,000 meters, Burghausen Castle is the longest castle complex in the world! I’ve been to castles like Versailles and lots […]

Hintersteiner See in Wilder Kaiser was actually the main reason Matt and I went on our honeymoon in the Austrian Alps! We wanted to honeymoon in a place with mountain lakes, and after looking at some places and comparing flights, we chose to honeymoon near Wilder Kaiser, thanks to Helene in Between’s glowing recommendation- and […]

Matt and I had our honeymoon in the Alps, and it was an amazing place for a honeymoon! We got married in August and I didn’t want to melt in the heat on a beach, so we looked for places to honeymoon near a mountain lake (if you’re also looking for an off-the-beaten-path honeymoon, I […]

Denmark is such an incredible country! I’ve spent a lot of time there (and met my fiance there), and I’m a little bit obsessed. Denmark is known for being one of the happiest countries in the world and “hygge” has recently become popular around the world, but there is much more to know about the […]

There are so many famous sights you have to visit when you go to Copenhagen, but there are also a lot of overlooked sights you should see! (And many of them are right next to famous spots you’re likely going to anyway). So if you want to get off-the-beaten-path and see some hidden gems in […]

I love getting to see cities from up high when I travel, and Copenhagen has some great (and surprisingly cheap) towers you can climb! Copenhagen is one of the most beautiful cities to get views of because the roofs are so colorful, and the tallest buildings downtown are historic with amazing detailed roofs and towers. […]

Denmark is my all time favorite country! I may be a little biased because I’ve studied abroad there twice and met my fiance there, but putting all that aside, it’s an amazing country full of history, colorful quaint towns, and delicious pastries. Copenhagen is the main city that people visit when they go to Denmark, […]

When Matt and I were studying abroad in Copenhagen, I lived a little outside the city but he stayed with a host family near the center of the city in a neighborhood called Østerbro. When we went back to Copenhagen, we stayed with his host family again and got to explore more of Østerbro! Like […]

I think the castles in Copenhagen are some of the prettiest in Europe! There are a variety of castles, from Medieval fortresses to ornate Renaissance palaces, and when you visit Copenhagen, you should try to see as many of the castles as you can 🙂 Gorgeous castles in Copenhagen Christiansborg Palace Christiansborg is definitely one […]
