Europe... here I come!
On June 30, 2014 after graduating from Cal State Long Beach with my Bachelor's degree, I will be taking off on a life changing trip throughout Europe! My boyfriend Quinton and I are travelling together and we have planned to go through at least six countries within 6 weeks by foot, train, and maybe even flying or boating to other unplanned destinations.With my 23rd birthday coming up (April 7th) and graduating from college in May I wanted to make gift giving easy while contributing to my trip. I also thought this would be a great way to let the people in my life know more about the details of the trip too!
See my itinerary below for the current information I have on the trip. I will update this site when Quinton and I plan more, but before that I wanted to make sure I was giving back by offering these perks below:

Trip Itinerary
June 30th: Quinton and I will be leaving LAX in the evening and arriving in Paris July 1st after a layover in Sweden.
July 1-5: We will be in Paris, France enjoying fresh pastries and treats while making sure to visit all of the major monuments and museums like the Eifel Tower.
July 5-7: After those few nights in Paris we are heading straight to Pamplona, Spain for the begining of San Fermin (running with the bulls!). Quinton and I will be staying with some Spanish friends we made through his current Spanish roomates, and possibly running with the bulls!
July 7-11: Leaving Pamplona after what is sure to be a non-stop celebration, Quinton and I are going to spend a couple nights relaxing in Granada, Spain. This is the first hostel we booked because we found a great room with an amazing view. We are excited to explore this beautiful state and I am sure we will be catching up on some rest.
July 11-16: After spending a few relaxing days in Granada, we are going to be ending our stay in Spain with Barcelona. We plan on going to the beach, soaking up plenty of sun, taking all of the beautiful art, and going to some of the best clubs at night.
July 17-20: Wrapping up our stay in Barcelona, we will then be taking one of our longest train rides up north to the Netherlands. For three nights we will stay in the romantic and exciting Amsterdam!
July 20-23: Our stay in the Netherlands will be a short one, but onto our next destination, Germany! We plan on staying in Berlin for several nights (maybe in a hostel called The Cat's Pajamas).
**This is our tentative schedule! I will make sure to keep this site updated with any changes/additions! From Germany we plan on going to Switzerland for about two nights and then spending the remainder of our trip exploring Italy. We will be returning in the middle of August.
