I've always been a fan of travel. All I was able to talk about for the year before London was finally being able to experience everything that I am experiencing now. I also like to think that I am an optimist. I have made it my goal while in London to never have a bad moment, and because I think happiness is a state of mind, everything so far has been an incredible experience for me.
Scotland's National Monument
Surprisingly, my most amazing moment that has happened yet wasn't in London. It was instead on Arthur's Seat in Scotland. The hour walk from our hostel seemed like it would end with us not reaching the top until we finally found the path and then ran into our friends that made it to the top earlier in the morning. The view from the top of the mountain was one like no other I've experienced before. It was the combination of amazing natural beauty and landscape mixed with incredible architecture from hundreds of years ago.
Arthur's Seat
Like many of my peers, I feel like London is becoming my home more and more each day. We have only had two weekends abroad, but it already feels like we have been here for months. I am astounded by how much fun I am having while experiencing the culture and tradition of Europe. I can already tell it is going to be hard adjusting to Knoxville when I am there again because easy, affordable travel is spoiling me here. Also, the food is incredible. Food is my favorite part of the journey, and I've already been able to try a traditional English Breakfast as well as Scotland's main treat Haggis.
English Breakfast
The fam takes on Cambridge this weekend, so I'll let you know how it goes. I'm sure they'll offer me free tuition once they see me though. Until next time, Troy signing off.
