Live An Adventure: This is what backpacking through Luxembourg looks like

Luxembourg. Tucked in between France, Belgium and Germany is a little (literally) gem rich (literally) in history and culture. 
Luxembourg on the map. Nestled between France, Germany and Belgium.

My friend, Ieva, once shared this brilliant quote with me,  “The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.” – St. Augustine

And so, this is what backpacking through Luxembourg (and beyond) at age 21 looks like. We're exploring the history of walled Luxembourg City.

Welcome to Luxembourg City. Rich in history.

My awesome travel partner Alaina, and me.


Now grab your backpack and explore the world! What's truly stopping you?

Hallo, Amsterdam Centraal

Amsterdam's Centraal train station isn't just another point of entry or exit to and from the city, it's also a piece of neo-Renaissance art. The reliefs in between the two clock towers attest to hope and prosperity for the city and its citizens.

Hallo, Amsterdam.


  • The station serves 25,000 passengers per day.
  • This station has been welcoming citizens to Amsterdam since October 1889.
  • There are 11 platforms which whisk visitors off to exciting new travel adventures.
  • The station is paired with Liverpool Street station in London. This serves as the terminus for the Dutchflyer rail-ferry service.
Happy travels!
