sistine chapel, you’ve been replaced

i recently realized i’ve been remiss in posting about two great trips i went on last month. so before i spill about my hot-off-the-presses trip, here’s the skinny on the others…

the first trip was to amsterdam, where i explored a lovely city with quite possibly the highest per capita amount of good soup found anywhere on earth. the more good soup i ate, the more i kept trying – and was never disappointed. it was kind of uncanny. i’d like to take this opportunity to give a huge shout-out to a beloved new discovery: mustard soup.

the next trip was to dublin, where i stumbled upon the most beautiful room i have ever been inside in my life. sorry, sistine chapel, you’ve been replaced – by a library. the long room at trinity college in dublin is out of this world. if i could’ve, i would’ve set up a tent in there.
