Monthly Recap

April was meant to be a low-key month, but things quickly revved up! The big trip of the month was a journey to France, mostly concentrated in the Loire Valley, but I managed to fit in two super-quick trips to Berlin and London as well. Let’s take a look at the best of April 2024! […]
