Travels

While living in Scotland we tried to see as much of Europe as our student budgets would allow. The above map shows all of our European travels – the maroon and purple pins represent pre-move travel (together and on my own, respectively) and the blue and yellow are post-move (together and the hubby, respectively). Our wish list was pretty long and we definitely didn’t make it everywhere we wanted to, but I think we did ok given the two short years we had to explore this wonderful part of the world.

In addition to our European travels, I had the opportunity to travel further afield as part of my MBA program and we took a trip back to the States for two of our best friends’ wedding. In 2015 I made it to two new continents – South America and Africa! Technically I was on the African continent for about 12 hours during our honeymoon when we took a day trip to Tangier, Morocco, but I feel like that doesn’t really count.
