Iceland was one of those places that it was everything I dreamed it would be and yet so much more. Between the beautiful landscape of mountains, natural springs, and Icelandic horses, it was like my dream adult playground.  Exploring the Western Coast of Iceland has been one of my all-time favorite trips to date.

When you walk into Scandic Hotel at Kurfüstendamm, you'll immediately notice the bold personality and vibrant art surrounding you in every direction.  Since we immediately checked into our hotel upon arrival, it was such a good first impression of Berlin -- creative & free.

Burg Eltz is magic. Seriously.  I had seen so many pictures of this dreamy, Germanic castle, but they still didn't do it justice. It's like walking through a magical Disney story tale.
