Freedom, Holland, and Belgium!

I haven't blogged in a really long time.  Mostly because Blogger changed the layout and I couldnt figure out how to do it! haha I hope everyone is doing well! Here is what I have been up to!
I had 3 weeks of classes left after spring break! They went by really fast! We had a couple practice test in listening, reading, writing and speaking.  I did well in all of them! Classes finished and everything went well! I feel like I really improved over the last 6 months!
The week after classes finished I hung out with my friends.  A lot of them had to leave :( Which was really sad.  The last night we all went out we went to Chat Noir.  It was a fun night out! Very sad at the end.  That weekend I said good bye to a lot of people!

The next week my friend Adam and I traveled to Holland and Belgium.  Both were very fun!  Our hostel were pretty good! They did not have air conditioning and it was very hot! We went on a pub crawl and meet a bunch of cool people! We meet a couple from Canada, they just got engaged and they were the cuttest thing ever! In Belgium we drank a lot of beer, had some waffels, and bought chocolate! it was so good! :)
 Holland had some of the best cheese!
