Vacay Therapy

So I know it’s been a while since I last posted, but I went away for a bit of an adventure after exams. I hopped around to 5 different cities in France and the UK and got to see a lot of people that I haven’t seen for a while and who I care about a lot.

I met up with Mark in London and the following day we debarked on our trip to Bordeaux to meet up with Dan, a fellow Canadian and friend from Grenoble who is currently doing his PhD there. Despite the fact that I haven’t seen Dan for about two years, we were able to pick up right where we left off and spent hours catching up, drinking wine and eating cheese and chocolate. Later that night Jamie arrived and the following day all four of us went on a wine tasting tour which was really fun and of course delicious.

  

Back in the UK again I went to Leicester and met up with Sweta, my friend that I met on my flight back to Toronto in December and we became instant friends so it was awesome that I got to meet up with her again and she took me to law school for the day, how very Elle Woods of me.  

Next up was Wales to see the beautiful Kat and Lama. What an amazing place, maybe I’m biased because I like lambs, but it was absolutely stunning. I would go back there in a heartbeat and I would love to see it on a clear day. My only complaint was the windy roads which make me sick but I’m just used to straight roads so I clearly need to man up.

The last leg of the trip was spent in London with Miranda (the legend), as well as a bunch of people from France and my cousins from Australia and Canada. Even though the whole purpose of my trip wasn’t touristy, I was pretty excited to make the effort to go to platform 9 ¾ (since I’m so cool) but I think the next time I am back in London, which will be soon, I’ll actually do the 27 page self-guided HP tour. Why not?

So thanks to everyone who I met up with especially those who donated a bed to me, it was amazing to see you all and I look forward to seeing you again.
