I am usually quite the planner. I like to know where I’m going and how I am getting there and what I am doing when I get there. This trip has made me throw that all right out the window! Now, I really just go with the flow. For the past few days I have…

An art filled day in Stuttgart
What do you do when you wake up and there are ominous clouds in the sky? Walk around a museum of course! I took myself to the Kuntsmuseum Stuttgart where the regular collection was closed but the two special exhibitions were open; Luisa Richter and Gego. I found that I was very interested in the…
A very brief history or Mercedes-Benz
Today was a little adventure to the Mercedes-Benz Museum. There is a Porsche Museum as well but apparently it is just cars and no history. The Mercedes museum offered the history of Mercedes as well as snippets of history throughout the world and how that affected this German engineered car. Think of WWI, WWII, the…
Crazy in Stuttgart
Today started like any other day with a mission to find a new pair of Havaianas of course. As I was walking around yesterday, my favorite go to flip flops decided to finally give out. Needless to say, this made for a lovely barefoot walk along the streets of Stuttgart, Germany. I chose to take…
Bern baby Bern
My parents left me on May 1 and my adventure of backpacking officially started. I looked at a map of Europe and found a city and decided to go there and that is how I ended up in Bern, Switzerland. Bern is the capital of Switzerland and has a great walking promenade full of stores…
Mind blown with science
We came to Geneva for one reason and one reason only, to visit Cern. For those of you not familiar with the Hadron collider or the Higss boson particle, I suggest you click on the links to read about them and prepare to have your mind blown! This was on Peter’s bucket list and it was…
From France to Switzerland
It has been a lazy last couple of days. We took the TGV train form Nice to Geneva which was an absolutely beautiful and very easy 6 hour train ride. It wasn’t all just French Riviera beauty. There was graffiti along the way that I found to be very interesting. I wish I knew what it…
Nice is nice
After two full days walking around Nice, I can say my feet are killing me and I have a very nice idea of what Nice has to offer. With such a great hotel and such a great view, it is hard to leave the hotel. But alas, one must explore while traveling. We took ourselves…
From St. Remy to Nice, the adventure continues
Once again, just call me taxi cab Jenna. We drove over 300 kilometers today to get from St. Remy to Nice with a stop in Bandol. Feel free to take a look at my crazy route. We only went to Bandol in the hunt for some delicious rose of course. We had a little adventure…
Tour de Provence
Mom and I started the day with a walk into St. Remy for the weekly market. We picked up some new scarves as well as some delicious strawberries, nuts and fresh baked bread for a little picnic lunch later in the day. We were told to drive to a town called Les Baux de Provence…
