Europe and UK Adjectives

So you (or me) dont get bored reading about EVERY SINGLE PLACE I went, I thought limiting myself to 3 words for each place which seemed more fun, and also a very thought-provoking way to remember experiencing these places.

  1. London, England: unknown. overwhelming. nuts.

  2. Paris, France: glamorous. exercise. neat

  3. Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland: spellbinding. fresh. like NZ.

  4. Avignon, France: touristy. walls. meh.

  5. Barcelona, Spain: architecture. suspicious.

  6. Nice, France: relaxing. homely. retire there.

  7. Monaco, France: rich. glamour. boring.

  8. Verona, Italy: boutique. scam.

  9. Venice, Italy: maze. water. thunder.

  10. Pisa, Italy: stopover. dirty.

  11. Rome, Italy: in awe. unreal.

  12. Vatican City: holy. artistic.

  13. Ignomennessa [bad spelling], Greece: calming. little.

  14. Sailing Boats, Ionian Sea: relaxing. sun. sleep.

  15. Corfu, small fishing village, Greece: traditional, smelly

  16. Mykonos, Greek Is: beautiful. blue/white. quad biking.

  17. Athens, Greece: chaotic. historical.

  18. Delft, Netherlands: bikes. relaxing.

  19. Breda, Netherlands. family. modern. comfort.

  20. Dinteloord, Netherlands. quaint. harbour. family roots.

  21. Amsterdam, Netherlands. vibrant. young. pretty.

  22. Berlin, Germany. alternative. exciting. spreadout.

  23. Prague, Czech Republic. fairytale. touristy. cold.

  24. Vienna, Austria. classical. gorgeous.

  25. Munich, Germany. beer. Dachau, quiet sadness.

  26. London, 2nd time. cozy. happening. chilled.

  27. Dublin, Ireland. music. friendly. guinness.

  28. Killarney, Ireland. 3:1. fun.

  29. Kilkenny, Ireland. castle. cute. rain.

  30. Cushendall, Northern Ireland. cold. annoying. out of the way.

  31. Belfast, Northern Ireland. developing. friendly. edgy.

  32. Edinburgh, Scotland. beautiful. big. Fringe festivities.

  33. London, 3rd time. relaxed. cider. happy. friends.


So that just about sums it up! I covered a lot of ground within 3 months solid travelling. I was on a budget but I had the best time. The longest I spent in 1 place was 1 week (in Delft) so on average I was changing places every 2-3 days. I feel this is a HUGE achievement for me in my life as I got the courage to just go.
