Czech Republic - Germany - Netherlands - Belgium

Prague in winter is truly a fairy tale in real life! Here you can treat yourself one of the finest beer and delicious cuisine before visiting the 800-year-old city Dresden in Germany



Dresden



When in Germany, you cannot miss Berlin and especially the remaining part of the Berlin Wall which once separated the nation during the Second World War:



Our next stop will be Netherlands, famous for its flowers and of course the Red Light District (just a walk around >_<!!!):




Here comes the final destination of the tour, Belgium! My only mission in this country would probably be to taste as much chocolate as I can :-D...and of course you cannot miss their fabulous city, Brugge:



Every story must come to an end! After having a farewell dinner, we will then hop on to our coach to head back to London where I take the flight to fulfill my second wish - breakfast at Tiffany!!!

Full details of the trip can also be found here

England - France - Switzerland - Italy - Austria

The kingdom of the historical beauties and all the mysterious landscape! Most of Topdeck tours start from this lovely nation then we'll go around Europe. It's a huge mistake to miss England on your list. I'll be ahead of the tour for a week just to enjoy all the scenery and these are the must see:

Stonehenge



The London Eye



The crop circles


Then we'll take the train to romantic France:

The Eiffel Tower




The Arc de Triompe



The Seine river




Our next destination will be Switzerland where you can witness the greatness of the Swiss Alps:




Leaving Switzerland behind, our coach will take us to Italy - capital of ancient history and arts. I really want to experience all of the city in this fantastic country, nevertheless, the tour is limited to only:

The Leaning Tower of Pisa



Florence



Rome



Venice



Here comes the most exciting part of my holiday (well for a classical music fan like me), we will travel from Venice to Austria, hometown of the well-known Mozart Amadeus, the peaceful city of Salzburg:



Saying goodbye to Austria, we will be heading to North East of Europe where the second part of my trip continues.

Europe here I come!!!

So what would be your rewards for the forever long 4 years you spent at university :-)???? A higher degree plan? Internship? Graduate program? Or start looking for a job :-(? All of those can wait :-P!!! There're certain things we can do only while we're young and that is to be foolish lol, exploring the world; making wishful dreams...As for me, I'm on my way to accomplish the three wishes that I'm dying to make them come true after I say goodbye to the campus life and before starting an office life: a trip to Europe; breakfast at Tiffany and a visit to NASA. If you do share the same wishful but not too dreamy mind as mine, please join me on my journeys and get the most out of it!!!

A crucial tip for travel: it's not safe to travel by yourself if you're a gal like me!!! One of my friends who had traveled with Topdeck actually recommended their tours to me. After a few researches on their website, I found them quite an amazing organization. Having 35 years of experience in organizing tours all over the world, their travel partners range from backpackers to hotels, whichever is your taste. I love the idea that they plan all the itinerary and where we're going to stay for each day so that you can actually join the group midway, that is if you can find where we're at lol! They even offer travel insurance and tips for your baggage so your holiday can really become hassle-free!!! (don't you hate packing and unpacking? and this is 9 countries we're dealing with, nightmare!!!).

I'll be part of the Winter Getaway trip which departs at the end of November (it'll be freezing i know lol). The trip is 18 days long and we're visiting 9 countries, these are the nations that I really want to see because I do plan to come back if they impress me ^_^! Okay, let's first get start with:
