2015 TRAVELS♡

It's been months since my last blog post and I apologise for that! I'm currently on 'Christmas' break from my third and final year at university, so I now have some time to blog. Hopefully I will find the time to start blogging more frequently!
Seeing as its now 2016, I thought it would be a good idea to do a recap of my 2015 travels. Firstly, in April, I travelled to a small city in Italy called Bergamo, which is a hour away from Milan. This quant little city was full of Italian culture and many friendly people. I went with my friends from university and this was the first time I had ever been away without my parents!

In May just two or three days after I had finished my second year at university me, my sister and my cousin flew to New York City (NYC), we had this trip planned for so long and after a lot of saving we finally booked to go! I was so excited as I had never been to NYC before and travelling to Italy a month before really helped me prepare for this big trip with just the three of us! NYC was just as amazing as I hoped it would have been and I had never laughed so much before. We shopped and explored the city every day we were there and I fell even more in love with Sephora! (It got to the point were I would connect to the wifi straight away because I had been in there too much). I came home with a much lighter pocket but my suitcase was full. I definitely recommend NYC to anyone and everyone, there is something for everybody. We also stayed in the Radio City Apartments, which was the most perfect located hotel ever, just a 30 second walk away from Times Square and 5th Avenue! 

My next trip was in July and we were heading to BRAZIL! My good friend who studied at the same time and place as me during my first year of university invited us to come visit her in Brazil, we decided three weeks would be perfect and we travelled to Rio de Janeiro and stayed in her apartment just a minute walk away from one of the most famous beaches in the world, Copacabana! Rio was amazing and there is so much to see and do. Then we flew to Bahia and stayed in a small village called Praia do Forte for a week, which was like paradise! This small village had an amazing beach and the cutest shops and restaurants. Then in our final week we visited my friends home city Brasilia, which was one of the most interesting cities I had ever been to. Her lovely family let us stay with them and I am still so thankful for how welcoming they were to us. This was the holiday of a lifetime and I can't wait to visit again.

This concludes my travelling for 2015 and I hope you enjoyed this post and I wish you all a Happy New Year and I'll see you again in my next post!
