This is a response to “5 Beautiful Cities To Visit Before 25.”

Traveling on a budget is essential to your twenties, whether studying abroad, taking a trip with your best friends, or going on a solo trip! Here are five great travel destinations to hit in your twenties and beyond, in no particular order.

1. Berlin, Germany

I feel like I can’t have a conversation about my study-abroad experience in Europe without raving about the week I spent in Berlin. No matter what you’re interested in - whether it’s food, history, culture, or art - Berlin has it. If you like music and dancing, the nightlife is unparalleled.

2. Tokyo, Japan

Okay, I admit I’m biased on this one. My boyfriend has lived in Tokyo for the past three years for college and although I haven't been (yet), I’ve seen how appealing the city is for those in their twenties. From savory snacks to sweet treats, Japan has so many options for you to eat. From the whimsical Ghibli Museum to the amazing traditional temples around the country, book your next destination trip to Japan!

3. Lima, Peru

My best friend from high school had an internship focused on sustainability in Peru last summer and I could not be more jealous. Peru is the perfect destination for those who enjoy the outdoors and love to have fun. Learn how to surf, go on hikes that lead to amazing views, and explore incredible Peruvian classic food!

4. Amsterdam, Netherlands

Although I wasn’t able to visit Amsterdam while studying abroad, I heard so many great stories from my peers about their experiences in the Venice of the North. Other than the obvious pass time, check out the largest flea market in Europe, attend a film festival, and go vintage shopping!

5. Madrid, Spain

I was lucky enough to visit Madrid while abroad as well and it was truly the best weekend trip ever. From eating tapas with friends to singing karaoke with strangers to enjoying different outdoor markets and everything in between, Madrid has so much to offer!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
