3rd spaces

First trip out of country to Germany opened my eyes to how badly I want/need these spaces.

word so

Paris. You need to know a person or two there and it's a high learning curve but it's really lovely and fairly cheap for how big a city it is Prague. So underrated. I don't remember much because I was quite drunk when I was there but it was really beautiful and the people were really nice Kauai. Not supposed to go there I hear but I went in 2014 and I think about it all the time it's incredible. So beautiful and so remote at same time London. Also need to know people here. But it's such a nice place in the summer. Really beautiful parks and a lot of peace in such a big city Los Angeles. Also need to know people. And need car. But great food great weather quite peaceful for a big city Bay Area. Need a car. But some of the most beautiful beaches and outdoor spaces in the world around the bay for real Yosemite. I'm not a big outdoors guy I only go for maybe 2 days when I do but it's so beautiful out there Berlin. Super free place, everyone kinda just doing their thing and not giving much of a fuck about what anyone else thinks which I loved. Cheap for a big city. If you wanna drink great beer and be on bullshit with some friends going out and stuff it doesn't get any better

Living in europe

some highlights: -living in a house with a bunch of acting students despite not actually living there -coffee shop next to the tube station -rock clubs -explaining through broken French it’s your birthday and getting a very strong rum based beverage in a Caribbean restaurant -napping in open fields with someone who loves you -never actually going to class and running around the museum like Bande à part -the windmill in brixton -being seated at a table for one in Berlin with a stew and some wine overlooking a canal -free modern art exhibits and screenings -smoking out the apartment window

WALKABLE CITIES !!!

i went to europe over the summer on this ambassador tour type thing sponsored by my school - best freaking experience ever. i live in an area in the us with zero public transportation and shitty overall walkability so going to big cities in Europe was a huge game changer. i visited England, France, Switzerland, Germany, and Austria. absolutely stacked lineup alone, but the tour had us drop down in big cities and small towns where we basically never took transportation unless we were going from country to country. we walked honestly probably 5+ miles every single day, ate bomb ass meals 3 times a day alongside little snacks and sweet treats we'd pick up. i lost like 5 pounds !! in two weeks !! and i was eating like a king the whole trip, it's crazy how getting ur steps in makes such a huge difference. and everything was always right around the corner, the drugstores and gas stations were STACKED, and don't even get me started on the trinket shops and restaurants. the big cities were so awesome, London and Paris were obviously worth the hype and fantastic to navigate around by foot, but i have so much love for the small towns we dropped down in elsewhere. we were up in the alps in Switzerland and Austria and all the people were fantastic. so homey, accommodating, and they had so many cool spas !! germany was even better, tiny town with insane charm and culture, i bought the most beautiful handmade Christmas ornament there made by the kindest german lady. don't even get me started on the food. but I'm just saying, walkable cities help u take it all in. i felt so present everywhere i went, i had so much to look at and there was always something to do at every corner. i feel like visiting unwalkable cities almost limits urself to a strict itinerary since u have to plan based on each individual place or activity u decide to go to. get off that damn bus and walk around ! it's so nice and u basically get all ur exercise in for the whole day and probably more. however summer in Germany was kind of diabolical when we were there it felt like i was entering a sauna every time i stepped foot outside. besides that the weather in other places is usually pretty fair and nice ! take advantage and go go go, even if ur not vacationing - lots of places can be walkable if u try hard enough (unless u live in like the midwest or in a farm town). i miss the falafel i had in Germany :(
