Week 7 & 8

During week 7 I use my time to explore more of Florence, spend time with friends, and enjoy the abundance of food the city has to offer. Moving into week 8, I will be doing some traveling. Read more to find out where I'm going!

Here's a little photo overview of how week 7 went for me. I ate out a bit because I wanted to try some new things. One of my roommates' friends also visited us from Hawaii, so we went out with them, and it was so much fun!

I found a place that makes Japanese style bentos and it was so delicious. It was a 6 minute walk from my apartment.

I really like Acquadolce so I had to go back again.

I did my nails this day and was really hungry after so I found a small hole in the wall place that makes Japanese bentos and it was so delicious. A bit on the pricey side though.

Moma Cakes is one of my favorite places to sit and study because they have good pastries, cakes, and boba. Also, the price is pretty reasonable.

This is a 3-4 euro pizza from conad and my roommates and I love this pizza because it's so cheap, filling, and delicious.

The sunsets in Florence are so beautiful. This is my walk back from the gym.

My roommates and their friends hanging out. So much fun!

Gelato at Vivoli, this was really good!

Moving into week 8, I am on my way to PARIS!

My first experience of Paris wasn't so great. As soon as I got off the plane, the tram wasn't working so everyone had to take an arranged bus to get to the city center. Unfortunately for me, a guy came to sit next to me on the bus and he was drunk. He threw up twice and I was very uncomfortable. Luckily for me, a sweet girl behind me stayed with me for the rest of the way. But even with that first initial experience, I didn't let that stop me from enjoying the rest of my trip.

View from my hostel!

Jellycat Paris Pattisserie

Galeries Lafayette shopping "mall". This place is really big and is like a really big department store. A lot of expensive brands.

I looked forward to eating Chipotle since we don't have any in Hawaii and because I needed a change of food other than Italian food (fyi there is not Chipotle in Italy)

Vietnamese food in Paris was surprisingly really good

I was so happy to see giant croissants because I always see them on Tiktok

I have always wanted to eat malatang because I see it on Tiktok all the time, but we don't have it in Hawaii so I tried it in Paris and I understand the hype now.

My hostel is located near a train station so there was a lot of homeless nearby. I was too scared to go out because of the amount of homeless people in the area so I ate food at my hostel at night ands it was soo good! I got french onion soup and a nutella crepe

Nobody asked, but I love Smiskis so I bought a few blind boxes for myself

Speaking of Smiskis... I got a secret from one of my blind boxes!

I went to Paris in the spring which means CHERRY BLOSSOMS!

What's a Paris trip if I didn't go see the Eiffel tower?

Thank you for reading my week 7-8 blog post. If you've made it this far, stay tuned as I make my way from Paris to LONDON!
