I fell in love with a city called Utrecht.

When I got back from my Europe trip, everyone I talked to would always ask the same question: "What was your favorite part?"
My answer?
Utrecht.
Utrecht is an adorable little town right outside Amsterdam.
It was a lot like Amsterdam, it had the beautiful old buildings, great shopping, (hello zara! hello united colors of benetton! hello lacoste!) delicious gelato, DUTCH FRYS, (also known as: heaven) etcetera.
But it was A LOT less busy, there were no nasty shops or creepy alleyways and no pot smell!! 


The hotel we stayed in was amazing. I could live there for the rest of my life. The rooms were beautiful, the grounds were absolutely breathtaking, the people that worked there were so nice, and the breakfast was DELICIOUS.
And that fact that it used to be an old monk monastery and soldier hospital and was totally haunted did not creep me out one bit.
(okay. maybe it creeped me out just a little...)

Basically, I fell in love with a city called Utrecht.


























(I really had to go...dont judge.)








( I almost spent 40 euros on this shirt, even though it only came in children sizes. Oh my word, how I loved this shirt.)





(worst chinese ever.)


(best gelato ever.)

K how about I just comment on like every single one of your posts? Sounds good? K good.
1. Ok that gelato truck is the CUTEST thing ever.
2. I totally agree, the little burrows outside the main cities are always the best parts. That's how I was with Paris. The more tourist-y parts of the city were just.. blah but the quiet neighborhoods and little shops were the best.
3. I LOVE that the hotel you stayed in used to be a soldier hospital. Seriously that's the sweetest thing ever! I love things like that. I'm a creep I know.
4. That bumblebee shot is awesome/amazing. Did you take it?? You talented woman you.
