  • Beer is cheaper than just about any other beverage. I love this, but the weight I’m gaining begs to differ.
  • Everyone I have encountered in Europe, whether it be friends or friends of friends or random strangers, have been lovely, with the exception of those I encountered in Prague. They say that if you have nothing nice to say then don’t say anything at all, so I will say absolutely nothing about the Czechs I encountered in the Czech Republic.
  • I’ve gotten a little more used to paying for bathrooms now, but I still can’t stand those who unabashedly beg for money by the bathroom even if they aren’t the ones who clean it! (This is directed at the old Russian man who hurled Russian insults at me as I scurried away from the bathroom, desperately trying to get away from him.)
  • Salzburg might possibly the prettiest city in Europe I have ever seen.
  • There is an abundance of fresh bread here, all day everyday. I can’t wrap my head around this. Back in the States, there are bakeries that will try to pass off yesterday’s bread as today’s fresh bread, which is unheard of here!
  • Even though I haven’t visited Italy this trip, I have seen more Italian restaurants than any other kind. This greatly pleases me, as Italian food is my favorite kind of food. (My family jokes that I should have been born an Italian, so great is my love for Italian food!)
