Paella is technically a dish from the area around Valencia in Spain, but it's pretty much
served everywhere in Spain now. It's all dependent on the quality of the stock,
apparently, and if that's true, then the stock at Pep Serra is incredible. Paella, if
you've never had it, is a...

Sainte-Chapelle is one of the only (actually... I think it may be THE only) church in
Paris where you have to pay an entry fee. I had never been before, and my friend wanted to
go, but when I saw the lineup outside and the fact that it was entree payante (payed
entry), I had my...

If you're looking to hang out with some Americans during your stay in Barra, look no
further than Piper Lover's. This feels like an American roadside dive inside, complete
with pool tables and (often) live music. They apparently serve good food in large
portions, but all I had when...

The Amiens cathedral is so large it's almost overwhelming: it's the largest complete
cathedral in all of Europe, so even if you've seen Notre Dame in Paris or Notre Dame in
Rouen, you are still not prepared for the grandeur of this cathedral. They've been
cleaning the exterior for...

One of the native Berneses' favorite pastimes is to go swimming in the river Aare, one
which the city was built. Even in the summertime, the river is quite cold, but it doesn't
matter much to the natives. You can drop your towel by one of the banks (people lie on
the grass and...

The entire archaeological museum is very interesting, especially the mosaics that were
found in Pompeii and reconstructed. The number of tiny tiles that makes up just one of
these details pictures is incredible. There are also a few sculptures that were taken from
Pompeii homes, and...

Mount Vesuvius is a trek... but it's completely worth it to get to the top. It's a bit of
a drive outside the city of Naples, but once you start the walk, which is long but not
terribly steep, you start to see some of the landscape around you, like the ancient city
of Pompeii which...

The Bayeux Tapestry is something I'd read about a lot in textbooks (mostly in linguistics
textbooks... this battle and the subsequent Norman rule of England is what cause English
to have so much of is Latin influence), but I never really thought about seeing
it. Seeing the actual...

OK... I'll admit that I stole that quote from a friend who was visiting the cathedral with
me... but it's so true! This cathedral is such a gorgeous building, when you walk in,
you're just awe-struck. The stained-glass windows, especially, are gorgeous. However, if I
can give you one...

Every guidebook I had stressed that this museum was a sight that was amazing in
Bordeaux... but I thought it was so-so at best. One of the exhibits was closed when I
went... maybe that's the one that everyone likes. The only thing that I found the
slightest bit interesting was the...

While so much of the infamous Cannes film festival is based around the Palais des
Festivals, the actual building is not terribly interesting. The building itself is
surrounded by handprints of stars, which you can take photos of and try to fit your hand
in, similar to the Walk of...

My friends and I stumbled upon Lorcan's 1916 Rebellion Walking Tour by chance: we had been
trying to go on a bus tour of the countryside, but after having missed the bus twice, we
decided we needed a new activity. We found the pamphlet for the walking tour in the
Dublin tourist...

This is one of my favorite things I did in Dublin. While it does take place in Temple Bar
(which is widely known to be the most touristy and therefore most expensive section of
bars in Dublin), it is really fun and the guys who run it are great. You pay a fee to
have the musicians...

This is a very beautiful Church... however I didn't expect it to be Episcopalian! Maybe
this was just an oversight on my part, but after having been raised Catholic, I thought it
would be great to go to a Catholic service in Ireland. My friends and I picked this
gorgeous cathedral,...

Now, I'm going to be frank: the last time I was in Ghirardelli Square I was twelve years
old. That said, the sundaes offered at the sundae shop in Ghirardelli Square are the most
incredible combinations of ice cream, chocolate fudge, and other amazingness I've ever
had. I...

Most people who travel to Mallorca hit either Palma or San Jordi, and it's easy to see
why: Mallorca, for the most part, remains a very rural Spanish island, and for someone on
a vacation, maneuvering old roads that were built "before logic was invented," as a friend
of mine angrily...

Centre Island is a great getaway from the hustle and bustle of downtown for an afternoon.
It's easily accessible from downtown Toronto: just a ferry ride away. Once you're
there, you have many choices of things to do. I usually go in the spring and summer
months, so one of the best...

I went to Phillips Academy, so I spent my fair share of time at the Addison. I love the
people who work there, and I used to hang out there to do my homework in the peace and
quiet, but I have to say that the permanent collection doesn't hold a candle to the
temporary exhibits that...

The first time I ever heard of Nando's, it was only about the sauce: my British friend had
brought a bottle of their famous Peri-Peri sauce back to Canada with him. I loved it
immediately: it's spicy, but it has other flavors too, instead of being just
smack-you-in-the-face-hot. He...

Our first stop on our trip across Europe was Dublin. We stayed at Avalon House, which is
apparently one of the top hostels in Europe. There was nothing particularly wrong with it:
it was clean, it had a nice social space, the free breakfast was really good (homemade
strawberry jam......
