Spring Break Photo Contest Submissions
My friends and I went on a two week European backpacking adventure before studying at Oxford University. The first day we arrived in Europe, jet-lagged and all, we decided to walk around London for 7 hours to get a feel for the city. I thought the clouds framed Big Ben perfectly in this picture!
I was making a wish as I tossed a coin into the fountain at Buckingham Palace. I wished for an unforgettable backpacking experience around Europe! I think it is safe to share that wish with you all now that it came true!
I was in Prague for two days visiting family and this was the first view of Prague’s skyline that I saw! How beautiful is this!
I thought this was a perfect description of Venice in a single picture. This is what I imagine when I hear the term “Venice.”
I was on the western coast of Italy in the Cinque Terre village of Monterroso al Mare. I think I may need a may need to retire here. It was absolutely breathtaking! This city was so alive and so full of culture!
I was on the western coast of Italy in the Cinque Terre village of Vernazza. I think I may need a may need to retire here. It was absolutely breathtaking and incredibly serene.
This was a picture of the well known flower stands along the infamous Las Ramblas in Barcelona, Spain. I thought it characterized the culture quite well!
The Eiffel Tower is always so classic! My travel partners and I jumped on the very last lift of the evening to the top of the Eiffel Tower. Afterwards, we wandered away away a bit so that we could see the Eiffel Tower in all its glory. What a magnificent view! The time and money was well spent!
My favorite dining experience in Paris took place right here along the banks of the Seine with a bottle of wine, some baguettes, and some cheese.
I’m standing in one of the most famous glacial lakes in Dublin! It was given to someone as a gift! I now have high expectations for my next birthday….
