Memorial to the Murdered Jews

Image
                           While in Germany I was able to go to the Memorial to the Murdered Jews in Europe. When we were talking at the edge of the monument at the beginning I thought it looked big but not too big. It wasn’t until I found myself walking through the paths that I realized how big of an area this monument covers. I can not believe that each stone represents the deaths of 3 9/11s. When I heard this and then saw how many stones there were, my heart hurt. It is so sad to think about all the lives that were lost due to someone's terribly wrong decisions. I feel like the taller stones in the middle represent how the more you learn about the history of this terrible time, the more you feel overwhelmed and like you can't breathe. The looming stones represent how this tragedy looms over Germany and the world. I pray that nothing like this ever happens again.       This monument has deep...

Free! - Caveau de la Huchette

Image
     While we were in Paris some of my friends and I went to a jazz club. I loved this experience so much!! There was a dimly lit upstairs where you could get food and sit in comfy booths, and a small downstairs room with live musicians, nice places to sit, and room to dance. Well actually there wasn't much room to dance when we were there because it was packed!!! The band we saw perform was incredible. I am not a huge jazz person but watching them play made me love it! The vibes in that room were so good. Everyone was cramped together enjoying great music. The bottom floor architecture was so cool. It was like a cave that had been hollowed out.

I literally loved this experience and look forward to keeping it as a special memory.       After doing some research I was able to find that Caveau de la Huchette has some great cultural significance. One way it is cult...

Sweden - women choice

She is the blondie back there     While I was in Sweden I was able to go to the ABBA museum! I absolutely love ABBA so this was such a fun experience! I was first introduced to a lot of their songs through the Mama Mia movies, which are some of my favorite movies. I literally want to be Donna. Anyways, the museum was so fun and I was able to learn a lot about the individual singers so I am choosing to write this blog on one of them! Agnetha fältskog was one of the singers of ABBA. She was born in Sweden and totally has the classic Blonde hair, blue eye look. Something that I didn’t know was that she had a solo career both before and after the band was formed. In my opinion I think they should have stayed together longer because I had never heard of her solo career before this day, but obviously I had heard of ABBA. Another thing I was able to learn about her was that she dated and even ended up marrying one of the members of ABBA. Actually, she was with him before they f...
