Brussels

I based myself in Brussels for my weekend away and it was such a beautiful and safe city. I wish i had been able to spend more time there but my trip was packed full of day tours. So with my precious little time there i explored the city centre on Saturday evening. I must admit i went a little crazy with my chocolate shopping - i think i ended up spending over AU$200 on chocolates alone! But with every 2nd store claiming to be the BEST belgian chocolates and chocolates decorations like below hanging around everywhere, how could i resist??

After a quick rest at the hotel i dragged my sorry ass out and did a quick walking night time tour of the city. I wasn't disappointed. Just look at the stunning photos below - which were taken with my crappy iphone!

Ahhh i miss you already Brussels. Lucky i stocked up on Belgian chocolates to last me a month =)

Spontaneous loner traveler

Last weekend i treated myself to a long weekend to Belgium before i started full time work this week after nearly 5 months off *insert groan here* It was a spontaneous trip booked just two days before i flew out. I travelled on my own - another "to do" item ticked off my list. At first it was scary and stressful, but by the end i was quite relaxed, happy and proud of myself. One of my many favourite memories to take home =)

Sephora

The ladies going nuts at Sephora in Barcelona.

I may or may not have walked out with 5 new lipsticks.

Tulips

Taking home some red tulips from Amsterdam.

Wearing 5 layers on top and 3 layers on the bottom and i was STILL cold.

Amazing experience none the less.

Best window display

As the title suggests, this has to be my most favourite window display ever. How cute is he??!!
