The next weekend was my birthday. I thought it would be weird to be here for my birthday instead of celebrating with my family and friends, but it ended up being pretty nice. On Sunday, I woke up and went to the kitchen to eat breakfast ... Read more >

Before we headed out to dinner, we hung out in the lobby. The girls drank the wine they had bought on the way back to the hostel. Two guys were sitting at the table next to us. They asked us for a corkscrew to drink their wine, ... Read more >

On Saturday I decide to go to the park to do my homework. It was a really nice little walk and the park was cute. The middle section was fenced off and it had all types of animals. There were flowers everywhere and benches for enjoying the ... Read more >
