While studying abroad in London for the spring semester, I traveled quite a bit. Prior to my semester abroad, I had never left the United States, so getting to visit several European cities was extremely exciting for me. I had a huge list of places to visit and managed to get to seven cities. My travel list is still really long, but I did get to visit some really beautiful and fun places over those four months. Along with the thousands of photos taken on my camera, I took so, so many photos on my phone. I could only post a fraction of them on instagram, of course, so here is my phone diary of my travels around Europe!

Meena + Whitney Museum
I moved out of my dorm and went home to Virginia last December, because I was going to London for the spring semester and leaving in January. Still, I couldn't stay away from New York for long. Meena and I went up to New York for a few days in mid-January. It was absolutely freezing, but we still ran around the city going to Soho and Little Italy, two plays (Noises Off and King Charles III), and the Whitney Museum, which is one of my favorite museums.

Last Friday I took a much needed break from nonstop essays and school and work, and texted my friend Kelsey last minute to see if she wanted to go take some pictures. We went up to Central Park before the leaves were gone and caught some golden hour light as well.
Read MorePhone Diary: London
If you've talked to me any time in the last six months, you definitely know that I miss London. I really miss London. As much as I love New York, I keep thinking (and talking) about London, remembering days there, going through my many photos, and wishing I had been there for more time. So I'm making another blog post (maybe these blog posts will end one day) out of the many photos I took during my semester there, as I took a ridiculous number of photos on my phone. While I did not always have my camera with me, I had my phone when I went to museums and tourist spots, walked to class and shows and shops, and explored cute little streets and the many parks as the weather warmed up.

London, I miss you and all your photogenic buildings and beautiful museums and pretty parks. See you soon.
Summer in Review
As I'm in the middle of the painful weeks of midterms, I've been thinking about how this summer was pretty great. I spent the summer in New York for the first time, so this was the first time I lived here without the schedules and pressures of college. I interned at a public relations firm, which included working at this year's Drama Desk Awards, 54 Below, and Broadway in Bryant Park. In my free time, I went to museums, bookstores, parks, baseball games, and lots and lots of shows. I baked lots of desserts and read a bunch of books and watched a probably embarrassing amount of TV... and took many, many photos on my phone while running around the city. So this is a phone diary of my summer: parks and theatre and museums, streets and desserts and the views from my dorm, plus a few glimpses of home and DC. More photos on my instagram!
