Spring is in the Air: More than Halfway There

Crazy that I’ve been in Amsterdam for six months now. I just went to Brussels with my friends for two days during midterms week (already halfway through the semester). It was an amazing trip I highly recommend to anyone studying abroad in Amsterdam; only $20 euros for the Flixbus roundtrip, cheaper than Amsterdam, great museums, great beer.

The Amsterdam Way

Before I write these blog posts I like to think of an overall theme to guide them. For my first few blogs, it was about adjusting to Rome. As I traveled across Europe the focus shifted to travel tips. It not only gives me an outline to work with, but it also prevents it from turning into a bragging session where I list the things I did and boast about how cool it was. With any luck I’ve passed on some lesson or a new perspective that you can take with you in your travels to come. For this blog post the theme that will guide my writing is about experience.
