Travel Must Haves

Hello again! Since today is the last day of this blogging class, I will post about a helpful topic which some people might be thankful about. 5 travel essential! So, let's get into it. Eye Mask and Ear Plugs I usually sleep on planes, or at least try to. Sometimes I need a little help which an old fashioned eye mask and foam ear plugs are perfect for!  Sweatshirt It doesn't matter where you go, at one point you'll always be thankful for a warm and cozy sweatshirt whether you're on a plane, or hiking, or just while getting cold during the night. An absolute essential! Notebook&Pen Who doesn't like to capture moments during an exciting trip? A notebook and a pen should always be in your backpack, even if you're not a writer at one point you might want to hold on to a moment. You can express yourself with writing, sketches, drawings, or even poems. Camera One of the most important things is a camera. Whether it is a GoPro, a digital,

Best Music To Travel

Once you get on the airplane you don't wanna do anything but lean back, and relax. The best way to make that work is to plug in your earbuds and start playing your favorite songs. So, for anyone who doesn't really know what music they should listen to or anyone who just heard their favorite songs over, and over again, I put together a list with my absolute favorites. Maybe some match your taste as well! 1. Aloha (feat. Merryn Jeann), by Mome 2. Rockstar, by Post Malone 3. Caroline, Amine 4. How did I get here, by Odesza 5. Glorious, by Macklemore

Story Time

Hello everybody! It's been a while but now I'm back and today it's story time. So, lean back and enjoy! It's July 5th and summer break has been amazing so far. The 13 hour drive with the old, rusty van to Colorado last week was exhausting. Exhausting because of switching back and forth driving between my best friend and me so both of us could rest, even sleep a little, because of the unbearable heat that broke us in sweat since the van doesn't have an AC, and of the time that literally passed by with seconds feeling like minutes. However, here we go being at one of the most amazing festivals over July 4th! Last night was amazing. We partied until midnight and then started igniting all different kinds of fireworks. At the entire thing were probably around 1000 people which basically means we had around 5000 fireworks in all. Well, at one point in the morning people started going to bed, and I'm not gonna lie, I barely remember anything from that. As you c

Hello!  My name is Clarisse, from Discovering Through Photography  . I'll be taking over Liv's blog for today.  Now I have not traveled as much as Liv has, but one of my favorite trips I've taken is when my family and I drove down to Kentucky. The southern parts of the United States are incredibly beautiful and Kentucky was no exception. The drive took us 14 hours. On our way we drove through Wisconsin, Illinois and Indiana. My favorite was definitely Wisconsin, we stopped at a waterfall/water hole where people could swim and there was a tunnel of rocks that you could slide down and a cliff to jump off into the pool at the bottom. Not only was it incredibly fun, but also beautiful for photography.  Once we reached our destination, Louisville, Kentucky, we got to explore the city. Louisville is an incredible city. There is a bridge that connects Indiana to Kentucky that is incredibly long but at night its beautiful. The city is really cool, lots of old buil

Good Morning Guys! Today I wanna talk about the experience I've had so far with         the organization I went to the United States with. Its name is EF and it stands for Education First.  Once you started researching for your exchange year and for organizations that could help you with that, EF probably popped up within the first ones.  There are many people that went and still go with this organization just because it is really popular and there are many positive reviews. So, let's get it started! Pro's There is always support, no matter when, or where! EF has many several types of employees who are each responsible for you depending on what point you are on your application. They are more than welcoming to help you out and answer your questions.
