Just because I'm not there yet doesn't mean I don't know where I'm going

Travel Changes You

“Travel changes you. As you move through this life and this world you change things slightly, you leave marks behind, however small. And in return, life - and travel - leaves marks on you. Most of the time, those marks - on your body or on your heart - are beautiful. Often, though, they hurt.” - Anthony Bourdain

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?

Riding the rails: Amsterdam Centraal

The central train station of Amsterdam. October 2006.

I enjoy travelling by train. It's a great way to sit back and enjoy the true views of a foreign countryside sweeping past you.

Would I have been able to capture this lovely shot of real life as someone knows it (somewhere in between Brussels and Amsterdam) as a part of a standard tour group?

Doubt it.

Now grab your backpack and let's ride the rails! I'm look at you, Rick Steves.
