5 Times Vienna Turned Out To Be The Best Weekend Getaway

A couple weekends ago I took a weekend trip to Vienna, Austria. It may be one of the most beautiful cities I've ever visited! From the food to the massive palaces, Vienna is one of my favorite places I've been so far. Here are my top 5 favorite things from my trip!

1. Schnitzel

I think may have found my new love. After visiting the Belvedere, we chose to have dinner at a Salm Braeu. They had amazing schnitzel! Following our meal there, we ate schnitzel as least once a day for the remainder of our weekend. I was in heaven!

2. Museums

There are so many cool museums in Vienna. I saw the Sigmund Freud museum, the Natural History Museum, the Belvedere, and the Albertina. It was amazing to see Klimt's "The Kiss" in real life at the Belvedere!

3. Wiener Eistraum

While walking around Vienna, we came across Wiener Eistraum. We instantly decided we had to go ice skating while there! It was such a fun time. There were three large rinks and then several paths that go around the area and connect the rinks. The decorations were cute, the music was great, and I didn't fall!

4. The aesthetics

I really enjoyed the color schemes in Vienna! Almost of the buildings are pastels. Everything is light and colorful. It was refreshing to see because most cities are brick and cement.

5. The Nightlife

Every place I went had really great music! It was also cool to meet new people. I met lots of people there on vacation and a bunch of locals. Everyone was very inviting and spoke English very well. My favorite was Chelsea!

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
