"Travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living.” – Miriam Beard

Aloha! Bonjourno! Hello! Oi!
So this is my first official travel post. It seems pretty fitting seeing as the title of my blog is "European Dreams". I suppose I should enlighten you readers on why exactly I chose to name my blog this. For many years I have fantasized and dreamed of travelling to Europe, and when I finally went there, it took my breath away. Literally. I was in London and there was no fresh air to be found, although the sights and sounds of the city took my breath away figuratively as well. So ever since I returned home, I have studied the continent like one of Justin Bieber's fans studies the magazines. I have learned every single European flag, where the countries are situated, the leader of the countries and much, much, much, much more.

Anyway, I really wished to use this quote as my title, but I felt it was just a tad too long, so here it is: "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." -Mark Twain

Furthermore, my international travels are not at an end, very soon I shall be embarking on an expedition to the most grand of places, which I shall not reveal until I return. This means that people who do know where I am going, do NOT write it in the comments. Please. When I return I will unveil where I have been and even show some of my photographs! Overall, I am very excited to experience new places and learn new cultures. I am so glad that I was presented with the oppertunity to go and to go with my friends of all things! We will have the most fun, exciting, amazing bonding experience that I cannot even put it into words.

And now for the newest "hilar" quote:

"Son, if you really want something in this life, you have to work for it. Now quiet! They're about to announce the lottery numbers." -Homer Simpson

Remember, facta non verba!
