A Day in Oxford

This past Easter weekend, the husband and I decided to stay home and truly relax. It was a weekend of spring cleaning, cooking, and watching films. It was beautiful. We also took advantage of the 4-day weekend to check off one of the many UK cities on my bucket list and visit Oxford!

As some of you may know, we are going to Germany this summer! The husband and I are very excited and I have been planning non-stop for our 8 days in the country. We will be flying into Munich and out of Berlin, so the middle days are still undecided. In the meantime, here are some of sights I'd really like to visit while I'm there!

Neuschwanstein
This is pretty much the number one reason why I want to visit Germany. I love castles, and this seems like the ultimate castle to visit. It inspired Disney’s Cinderella Castle and it looks like a fairytale come true.

Geneva & Bern

Back in January, I was actually sent to Switzerland because of work, and spent three days exploring this snowy country. I'll actually skip the first day, because we (my colleague and I) arrived quite late, went to dinner, and then headed straight back to our hostel. Bit of a boring first day, but we definitely made up for it on the next two!

We're going to Germany!

It's official! The husband and I have booked our flights to Germany in August - we'll be visiting Munich, Heidelberg, and Berlin. We're going for 8 days in total, and are hoping to travel by train from city to city.

I've never been to Germany but I am so excited for this new adventure!

If you guys have any suggestions as to where to stay, where to eat, what to see, and where to shop, please let me know! I'm making a small bucket list of what I absolutely need to see, and I'm ready to add more.

Have you been to Germany before?

Stationery Haul

I absolutely love buying new stationery. If it was up to me, I'd pick up every notebook and pen that's for sale in Paperchase, and keep it all organized in sleek Muji storage. I had some time to waste last weekend (what is even happening to me, time to waste?), so I used it as an excuse to have a little peruse at Homesense/TK Maxx.

Did I mention these stores are within a 5-minute walk from my flat?

Dangerous.
