A hop, skip and jump across the pond

It’s mid-June. And that means Matt and I are headed to Brussels and Greece in a few days!

I don’t think I’ve mentioned on here that we booked this trip. In February Matt and I were talking vacation plans and we had decided months earlier that this year would be a small vacation year since I haven’t accrued much vacation time in my new job and we took two big trips last year. But then I got the travel bug. Probably not hard to believe, but Matt was easily convinced that we should throw caution to the wind and book a bigger trip. Our good friends Brian and Jen moved to Brussels, Belgium last summer so it was an easy decision to go visit them in their new home.

And since we are going all that way we wanted to tag on another European destination. We toyed around with Switzerland, Italy and Greece, ultimately deciding on Greece. So we’ll spend ten days in Europe, fly into Brussels then to Athens where we will spend a few days and then end our trip in beautiful Santorini.


Ahh. This is the patio of the place we are staying at with Brian, Jen and their friend, DJ. To say I’m excited would be a vast understatement. Can’t wait for the break from reality and to experience new cities and cultures with the hubs. I promise to post pictures and anecdotes when we return.
