Europe 2010. Feels like yesterday. This was the first trip that I have gone on that has been really out nightlife and experiencing culture – to its fullest. Yes, Guinness in Dublin, Heineken in Amsterdam, Limoncello in Venice, and Tuscan wine vineyards. Also clubs throughout Europe – Tiger Tiger in London and Queen Club on Avenue des Champs-Elysees, Paris! Plus much much more..

Later in the year:
An unbelievable 2 week trip throughout Thailand. I wasn’t planning on traveling until summer, but one of my best friends, Sarah, who I met on Europe 08 (and who went on Europe 10 with me) Facebook messaged me and simply said we should go… a week later we were signed up and then two months later we were in Bangkok!!! Not only did I get to see Sarah, I got to see Jeremy (Europe 08), and Dan (Europe 10). So it was also a Europe reunion!!!
We went to a Tiger Temple, rode elephants, experienced a Thai ropes course (I will explain at the end of this post), SPENT NEW YEARS IN BANGKOK, and lived through a night at Kao San Road.
Highlights:
Grand Palace
Temple of the Emerald Buddha
Summer Palace
