If you follow me on social media or are in any of the same chats as me, you probably already know about this! If not, I spent the last 5 days in Europe (London & Paris, specifically) and had such an amazing time. It was my first time ever venturing across the Atlantic and I will definitely be back!
DAY 1 + 2 (LONDON PT. 1):
My friend and I landed in London at about 11am, but didn't actually check into our hotel until about 2pm. So after we waited in the lobby for 3 hours, we met up with our other friend who is currently studying in London and spent most of the first day exploring some touristy stuff. Afterwards, we went to this cute little marketplace for dinner and we got THE BEST, and I mean THE BEST cannolis I've ever had in my life. Then we actually got to meet up with my friend Damon (who some of y'all will know as SeaKing!) and went out to the club from like 11pm-4am which was a surreal experience to say the least.
Day 2 was pretty chill considering we had no time to sleep after our plane ride the day before and then decided to go out clubbing our first night. We woke up around noon and went on a SUPER cute afternoon tea tour bus that we had booked. They served us with a bunch of tea and food and pastries and we got a little scenic tour of London. Then after a LONG nap back at the hotel we ended the night in London's Chinatown for some sushi for dinner!

DAY 3 + 4 (PARIS):
On the morning of Day 3, my friend and I traveled to Paris on the EuroStar train which made me feel like I was on the Polar Express, it was pretty cute. We checked into our hotel which was right across the street from where we arrived and immediately got some crêpes from the café right next door which were BOMB. We got changed back at the hotel and spent some time exploring before our dinner reservations at a rooftop restaurant. I got truffle pasta that costed like 40 euros but it was SO worth it. Then we went and visited the Eiffel Tower at night which was absolutely breathtaking.
Day 4 was a bit of a mess. We had planned on spending most of the day at and around The Louvre because I really wanted to see the Mona Lisa, but The Louvre is apparently CLOSED the one day of the week we'd planned to go so that was kind of a bummer. We filled the free time with some more exploring though! We ate SEVERAL croissants at this cute diner around the corner from where we were staying and then traveled to go see the Eiffel Tower during the day which was just as breathtaking. We got some souvenirs and then ended up at this cute aesthetic restaurant called Pink Mamma for our dinner reservations. The food was AMAZING.

DAY 5 (LONDON PT. 2):
Our last day in Europe we started off in Paris and took the EuroStar back to London. We just walked around this cute little mall for a bit and then explored the city some more and tried out some food stops that we didn't have a chance to before. We had to wake up at 6:30 the next morning to get to the airport early enough for our flight, so my friend decided to have an early night and stay in. However, SeaKing invited me out, so we bar hopped a bit and ended up at a gay club for the rest of the night. I didn't get home until 3:30am and had to wake up 3 hours later for my flight home but it was so worth it!!
