Europe is one of the most popular areas in the world to travel to, anytime of the year. The beautiful warm weather, bustling cities, and beautiful sites make it somewhere where every type of traveler dreams to go. While there are hundreds of amazing cities to visit, there are some that really are (in my opinion) the best summer destinations:

1. Barcelona, Spain

Barcelona is a perfect summer destination. The beautiful warm weather, amazing beaches, and beautiful sites, makes it somewhere that suits every type of traveler. If you are more laid back, Barcelona has pristine beaches where you can lay out all day getting the perfect tan. If you love a good adventure, the gothic quarter, sagrada familia, and Park Guell, are perfect for exploring.

2. Mallorca, Spain

Mallorca is one of the most beautiful places in Spain, especially in the summer. The weather is perfect, especially if you're looking for a place to relax on the beach or go on ocean excursions. Mallorca also has one of the most beautiful cathedrals in the world, and lots of cities and towns to adventure in.

3. Paris, France

Aubrey Hepburn said it, and it will remain true until the end of time: Paris is always a good idea. No matter what time of year you go, the city of light captures your heart, but during the summer there is just an extra magical feeling in the air. Form people sitting on the Seine eating french bread and drinking wine, to the beautiful mornings walking around the city, Paris is truly special in the summer.

4. Prague, Czech Republic

Out of all the places I have travelled, Prague is one of the most special. Prague is truly like a little fairytale land. It feels like you are in a Disney movie, in a city that is truly too beautiful to be real. Warm summer nights walking along the Charles Bridge, listening to the street musicians, and taking in the magical essence of the city, is unforgettable, and makes Prague a summer adventure you will remember forever.

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.
