Berlin has been on my travel bucket list for some time and this summer, I finally got the chance to visit. Between the history, edgy street art, interesting bars and restaurants, I enjoyed exploring Berlin. Here’s what I would recommend for attractions, restaurants, bars and a great place to stay.
What To See
The Berlin Wall While this photo was taken near Potsdamer Platz, there are several locations to see the Berlin Wall. TimeOut does a nice job of documenting the areas.
Ah, London. My favorite city in the world! After living in London for six months as a student, I cherish every opportunity to come back. So, when my friend Maria and I started planning a European holiday, London seemed like the perfect first destination.
Looking to visit London in the future? Here are my recommendations on what to see/do, where to eat and where to stay.
What To See & Do
Take A Stroll In Regent’s Park While everyone knows about Hyde Park, I’m going to let you in on a little secret. Regent’s Park is even more beautiful. From the Queen’s rose garden, to stunning hedges and a pond where you can rent paddle boats, definitely spend a few hours exploring!
While I’m no stranger to Fenway Park, I was recently offered an amazing opportunity to join KIND for FenwaYoga, a charitable event hosted on the field with the goal of raising $100,0o0 for the Red Sox Foundation. Let’s just say that opportunities like this don’t come around often, so naturally I jumped at the chance!
This salad is one of my go-to’s when I want a quick, healthy lunch. Combining items I already have in my apartment, plus a teensy bit of prep work, this salad comes together in a flash. I take chopped kale, roasted butternut squash, edamame, peas, feta and dried cranberries and toss it in a homemade apple cider/Dijon mustard vinaigrette. The end result is so delicious and a great way to add extra veggies into your diet.
I’m always excited when new restaurants open in Boston that bring a little something special to the table. Such is the case with Liquid Art House, which opens today at 100 Arlington Street in the Back Bay. Part restaurant and part art gallery with a stunning bar, I was thrilled to attend the sneak preview event with one of my favorite local bloggers, B Loved Boston. Here’s why!
