After my European adventure travelling to some amazing places, I have met some of the most amazing people in the world and would do it all over in a heart beat. Currently sitting in my lounge room back in Australia, I realised i hadn't updated you on my last half of my European trip. It was certainly one to remember! Friendships were made that will never be broken, and countdowns to the next time we meet have already started. If I still had money left, fair to say i would probably be back in no time!
CONTIKI - CROATIAN ESCAPE - Oh My Godddd.
Some of the best memories I have ever made, with quite possibly some of the best people I have ever met. Our week consisted of island hopping, boat jumping, swimming, tanning and consuming wayyyy too much alcohol - I'll have to blame Dule our barman for that one for feeding me alcohol when ever I asked.. At least he's a good barman! With amazing food being cooked for us nearly every day and at least one meal consisted of 3 courses! As well as having the best cook ever on the boat!
The amount of beautiful scenery and landscapes we saw, as well as the clearest ocean you would have ever seen in you life! Now I can't forget our AH-MAZINGGGG tour guide Dani, that girl literally was one of the best people I have ever met in my life, I actually did not want to leave her. We got along like 2 peas in a pod and we would normally be the last, if not close enough to being the last ones on the boat in the early mornings after a night of drinking wayyy too much! Much of which consisted of buying a bottle of vodka between a couple of people at the club and you were set for the night!
Yes we slept on a boat the whole week, although by the time you normally went to bed you'd be drunk and just pass out so docking out at 6am never phased you unless you got see sick the first few days and you were screwed. It ended up being pretty much a week of drunkeness with a bunch of Australians and a few Canadians.. & I could not have asked for anything more!
If I could go back an do that week all over again with the same people I would do it in a heart beat!

Lido di Fermo - Italy
Italy was a quick trip catching up with an old host family I stayed with a while back. It was definitely the rest I needed after the week in Croatia. Each day just consisted with sun and beach..
What else could you asked for when you just wanted a relaxing few days?
We stayed by the Italian Seaside for a few days in a little town called Lido di Fermo, it had a very medieval history - which some of the buildings were beautiful.
Later that week we made the trip back up to Ferrara for a Buskers Festival, never seen so many people playing and singing in the streets from all over the world.. Fair to say some were very very good, others were just straight up horrible.
Vaasa - Finland
After 11 1/2 hours, 3 flights, 2 stop overs, and 2 flight delays - I finally made it to Finland to see another host family for the weekend. Now this trip was even quicker than Italy! However I did get to meet the family of Martina (a girl who came to live with us in Aus for 3 weeks). With open arms they were amazing! We got the chance to catch up, go back to acting like children at a theme park for the day and ride on one too many rollercoasters and relax a bit more before I had to head to Ireland for the final part of the trip.
Ballyvaughn - Ireland
The last stop before I headed home was Ballyvaughn in County Clare. Now i didn't get to see much as I didn't have much money left. I did get to spend some more time with my family and try and get my life a bit together before I got home..
Europe you've been amazing!! I will never forget the places I've been, and people I've met. I'll be back again soon enough! Until then..
