A Long Weekend in Prague
Continuing with hitting up a different country every month, I’ve gone to Prague for February. Although, I almost didn’t make it.

Part 5: Freiburg and The Black Forest

The hostel is situated outside of town, with the Black Forest right behind it. Perfect location for me to go hiking… Continue reading Part 5: Freiburg and The Black Forest
