London, England (April 26th – 27th, 2018)

April 26th I arrived at London Gatwick airport at approximately 12:30pm. I bought a train ticket to go to Kings Cross train station but then when I went down to the platform, I just caught the first train that came by that said "London" and ended up going to London Bridge station, approximately 2.4 miles … Continue reading London, England (April 26th – 27th, 2018)

La Spezia, Italy – Part 1 (April 20th – 22nd, 2018)

NOTE:  You will notice on some of my pictures that I've changed my "signature" to Bluegreenpacker.  This is because I was trying to come up with a catchy/cool name for my account on Instragram and I came up with bluegreenpacker.  Pretty much it's because I love blue and green, I have a blue and green backpacks, … Continue reading La Spezia, Italy – Part 1 (April 20th – 22nd, 2018)

Peschiera del Garda, Italy (April 17th – 19th, 2018)

I had all morning to pack. My bus to Peschiera didn't leave until 1:10pm. But per usual, I was packed and ready to go early because I knew I wouldn't walk quite as fast fully loaded and wanted plenty of time to get to the bus stop. Sometime while I was at Marmota Hostel, I … Continue reading Peschiera del Garda, Italy (April 17th – 19th, 2018)

Salzburg, Austria (April 9th – 12th, 2018)

I accidently "unpublished" this post when going between my page on Chrome and the WordPress App. So this is basically republishing. 😦  Also, not sure what possessed me to initially write "Van Trapp" instead of Von Trapp.  My bad... I think I fixed that in this updated post. April 9th I was up and going … Continue reading Salzburg, Austria (April 9th – 12th, 2018)

April 1st It was a "Try to wrap my head around this EuroTour" planning kind of day.

Eurail, Interrail, or No Rail?

I feel like most of the knowledge I've gained while traveling isn't exactly applicable to anyone else. It's been my own journey with my own experiences that may or may not help other travelers....UNTIL NOW! I've decided to write about the debate I had with myself whether to use the Eurail Global pass and the … Continue reading Eurail, Interrail, or No Rail?
