Finally....we got a chance to backpack around Europe from April 3rd - 26th, 2009. I am really thankful to God and my husband for giving me a chance to do this before we started a family. We were supposed to go 2 years ago. We even already bought the airplane tickets and I was crying for at least 1 hour when we had to cancel it due to visa difficulties.
Everything was exciting..new...beautiful...WOW!!! I really love all the historical information that I learnt and the beauty of each country. Each has its own uniqueness, and being able to visit them for a short time was such an exciting experience. The joy of finding the hidden beauties, getting lost, running after the trains, trying unknown food and snacks..were truly part of the FUN!
We learned a lot about each other's strengths and weaknesses and developed patience for each others. This trip definitely brings us closer as we got no one to rely on, expect each other and God. I am also thankful that I got to do this trip and share the experience with someone whom I love and trust. Thank God that He kept us safe from any harm after all the horror stories about pickpocket and crime in Europe!!!
Even now when I close my eyes, I could still see the town square in Brussels, the magnificent Eiffel Tower, or the beautiful Alps. Those are the memory that I can take with me for the rest of my life.
