Es tut mir leid

I've just given up on writing about Venice and Prague. Sorry, but this semester is flying by and I just don't have much time to write these in-depth posts about what I did on all my trips anymore! I'm also losing steam on writing everything in this blog. So, I'm sorry about that. Instead, I'm just gonna share some fantastic pictures with you all! So, here they are: My trip to Venice in pictures.


It was really foggy when we first got in on Saturday morning

Sneaking illegal pictures in Cathedrals!

The Rialto Markets were beautiful!

Gondolas!! We didn't go on one, but it's pretty cool seeing them throughout Venice

Our vaporetto ride to the islands of Murano and Burano - it's like a water bus

Venetian masks on Burano

I fell in love with Venice. It was a beautiful place and I could feel the Italian culture seeping out of every corner. I really want to explore more of Italy at some point. It's such a beautiful country and I just love how I felt being there. I was a feeling I could get used to, almost like I could spend some time living there. Did I just say that?! Damn.

Bitte, nein. Ich möchte nicht krank sein, danke.

I woke up this morning with a bit of a scratchy throat and it hasn’t been getting any better. Damn it, and here I thought I was about to get through an entire semester without getting a cold. Nope, my body has once again decided to be stupid and my immune system has failed me. Considering the Austrians are so strict about what kind of medicines you can buy at the stores (you even need a prescription for ibuprofen), I don’t know what I’ll end up taking…although, a friend of mine did tell me about a homemade concoction that her mom used to make for her when she was little and sick:
Hot white wine with sugar
I wonder if that actually works…I guess I’ll have to go buy some wine tomorrow and find out! Send me good vibes, please. Getting sick is that last thing I need right meow.
Also, sorry I've been so horrible at updating this thing with my past few trips...Venice and Prague updates should be coming soon! Maybe that's what I'll do if I end up getting sick and spending my days in bed...

Oh, and tomorrow I am going to my very first CHRISTMAS MARKET! Get excited for some pictures.
