You’re Never Too Old for a Day at the Carnival

‘Come, my head’s free at last!’ said Alice in a tone of delight, which changed into alarm in another moment, when she found that her shoulders were nowhere to be found: all she could see, when she looked down, was an immense length of neck, which seemed to rise like a stalk out of a sea of green leaves that lay far below her. ‘What can all that green stuff be?’ said Alice. ‘And where have my shoulders got to? And oh, my poor hands, how is it I can’t see you?’ She was moving them about as she spoke, b[...]

The Only Summer Checklist You’ll Ever Need

Alice could see, as well as if she were looking over their shoulders, that all the jurors were writing down ‘stupid things!’ on their slates, and she could even make out that one of them didn’t know how to spell ‘stupid,’ and that he had to ask his neighbour to tell him. ‘A nice muddle their slates’ll be in before the trial’s over!’ thought Alice. One of the jurors had a pencil that squeaked. This of course, Alice could not stand, and she went round the court and got behind him, and very soon found an[...]

Why You Should Skip Work and Go on a Day Trip

Alice did not at all like the tone of this remark, and thought it would be as well to introduce some other subject of conversation. While she was trying to fix on one, the cook took the cauldron of soup off the fire, and at once set to work throwing everything within her reach at the Duchess and the baby—the fire-irons came first; then followed a shower of saucepans, plates, and dishes. The Duchess took no notice of them even when they hit her; and the baby was howling so much already, that it was quite impossible to sa[...]

Summer Lookbook: Pretty in Pink

It was the White Rabbit, trotting slowly back again, and looking anxiously about as it went, as if it had lost something; and she heard it muttering to itself ‘The Duchess! The Duchess! Oh my dear paws! Oh my fur and whiskers! She’ll get me executed, as sure as ferrets are ferrets! Where can I have dropped them, I wonder?’ Alice guessed in a moment that it was looking for the fan and the pair of white kid gloves, and she very good-naturedly began hunting about for them, but they were nowhere to be seen—everything[...]

How to Spend 36 HRs in Amsterdam

On a recent trip to Dublin, Ireland, my cousin and I knew we wanted to make the most of our time in Europe and add in an excursion to another country *somewhere* in Europe outside of Ireland. To our delight, we quickly discovered that flights to continental Europe are extremely cheap from the Dublin Airport, so adding on an excursion to our trip was made quite reasonable. We landed on Amsterdam really because it was the first one that we thought of-- but the possibilities are endless. The catch; we only had about 36 hours to explore, eat, and Instagram our way[...]
