How is this pink castle real?🏰
Poland has been a massive blur of colorful buildings, stunning castles and lovely people. I’ve been adventuring through lesser known areas to share the beauty of Poland.
.
This may be one of my favorite photos, it certainly is my all time favorite castle (so far). It has been through quite a bit since it was built it the 12th century. Lots of additions, survived a Nazi takeover, and a stunning renovation to its former glory. Most of it is original, and it’s baroque features inside and completely stunning!

Getting to Poland was *very* quick and easy with a direct flight on @flylot. I was honestly very impressed by the service on the Dreamliner on the direct route from LAX to Warsaw. I was in business class & I had a lay down flat bed seat which made it very easy to get some rest in-flight so I could get out of the airport and enjoy my layover in Warsaw before heading up to Poznan! ———

💔Devastated. Heartbroken. Sick to my stomach. This doesn’t even begin to explain what a loss this is. Art, culture, heritage, so much lost.
This was taken on June 14th, 2009 before getting the perfect instagram photo was important, these photos were just taken to serve as a simple memory.
My first trip to Europe. The trip where I became an international solo female traveler. My trip London & Paris was taken after I had been sick with Lyme Disease for over a year, and it took every ounce of energy in my body to power through my illness for what I thought may be my only opportunity to travel. Turns out it was a driving force to help me will my way to get better, and travel as a career.
Next trip, December 2014. Do I go to the top? No, I’ll come next time. Once again, similar to another recent post, there was no next time.
The whole world is praying with you, Paris.

Champagne tastes better from the front of the aircraft! 🍾
I truly had the BEST flight to Poland from LAX. I flew direct to Warsaw in Business Class with @flylot on a Dreamliner. The flight attendants were some of the friendliest I have ever had (in fact I kept sayin to them “wow you guys are all SO nice— thank you!” Haha.
As always a lay-flat seat makes for a restful flight, and the blanket was one of the softest in-flight blankets I have ever had. I was impressed from beginning to end... next time you have a flight to Europe, you should give them a try!

🏙This view comes with a story...
If you saw my IG stories while I was in NYC, you may have seen me say I loved this view, but it was a little difficult for me.
.
Just below my view of the Freedom Tower, is a hole in the ground that instantly reminded me of what was missing from the skyline. My excitement for this view quickly shifted to sadness, & I felt conflicted. Excited about this view but instantly taken back to the first few weeks of September 2001.
.
I was 15, just starting my Sophomore year of high school. I always went back to school shopping in the city. Just days before going back to school, I scoured Bloomingdales, Henri Bendels, and Century 21 for clothes I knew my classmates wouldn’t have.
.
As my mom and I left Century 21, I looked up at the Twin Towers and asked her if it was possible to go to the top. She said yes, referring to Windows of the World. I said we should go up. She promised “next time”, we had to get the train.
There was no next time.
.
Flash forward to a week and a half later or so...
It’s Tuesday, and I was home from school, sick. The world as I knew it had vanished in a matter of moments while I was asleep.
.
When I woke up, planes had already hit both Towers, and one had collapsed. I watched tv in confusion as human beings flung themselves off the buildings rather than burning alive.
.
Then... the second tower fell and along with it, our sense of safety in the US crumbled along with it.
.
4 days later, and I’m back in the city again with my mom. Everything in lower Manhattan is chaos and quiet at once. The streets, and basement areas are covered in a layer of ash from the towers, which seemed logical at the time but looking back, it’s insane to think I saw this.
.
Eventually I saw the twisted scraps of metal that were still burning. At this point I also knew one of my classmates had lost her dad that awful morning.
.
It’s nice to see the area back to normal— we are getting close to 20 years. But for me, I will always feel something is missing.
.
Will I stay here again? YES. I love this part of NY. But somehow, I can’t help but think, I will never look at the Freedom Tower without feeling deep sadness.
