The place of dreams

I'm going to Europe!!!! I can hardly believe it myself! I'm starting this blog as a sort of journal for my whole experience of the trip, from the planning stage, onto the actual travel and sight seeing! I have wanted to go to Europe since I was really little, something about it has just fascinated me. Its full of history and there is a Romantic air about it. (romantic in the literary sense). I've wanted to experience first hand what Percy Shelly was trying to describe when he wrote about Mont Blanc. I want to see with my own eyes the remains of the once great Roman Civilization. I want to see the cities and locations that inspired poets like Lord Byron, playwrights like Shakespeare, and novelists such as Mary Shelly. I am excited to see the place of peoples dreams and the inspiration to so many ideas and stories. As I plan and learn more about the places I will be going, I will share and post. I cannot wait to get planning!!!
