This last weekend we headed up North to Annecy where I lived last summer as an au pair :) David was supposed to come out and visit me and we were going to travel France together but he decided to spend the money on my wedding ring instead :) that's when he first told me he wanted to marry me! So anyways, it has been so much fun showing David around my favorite spots and showing him how beautiful it is there!! Some of the photos were taken on stops along the way to Annecy and the others all from beautiful Annecy!
I of course have been living in my trusty birks lately - everywhere I go. And I am loving that they are back in style :)
We were in Portofino, Italy all day today and just arrived in La Spezia! We are in a hotel (hostel more like) tonight which feels good since we have been camping the last couple nights - I am so ready for a shower haha
Thanks so much for reading!!! xoxo

I would love some travel advice and it looks like you’ve been everywhere I want to go!
My boyfriend and I are traveling through Spain then along the coast and up to Switzerland. On the way back we are wanting to stop somewhere. I’ve been looking and looking and randomly saw your post about loving Annecy.
Would you recommend this as a place to go for a few nights to relax? Is there anywhere else you recommend? I really appreciate it!!
Beautiful photos! Could you tell me if you had someone take the photos of you and your husband or do you use a tripod? If it’s a tripod, what brand? I am looking to purchase a lightweight one for my honeymoon.
Thanks!!
We just asked people to take them!! Generally people who are carrying SLR cameras because they know how to work ours! Have so much fun on your honeymoon! xx
These photos are beautiful. My husband and I are planning a euro trip for next year and will definitely have to go here. let me know if you have any recommendations for the area.
Also, do you use a timer and tripod to take photos of the 2 of you? I hate having to ask people to take our photo.
happy travels, girl!!
what a beautiful place!!! love the pictures
Thanks Mickelle! 🙂
I love following your blog! You are so inspiring and you and your husband are so adorable. I hope you enjoy the rest of your trip.

I’m so envious! I haven’t been to France in a few years now. I miss it terribly.
France is so great huh?! I always miss it when I am away too!!
Hello Amber, I love your pics and I love this blog because is full of traveling pictures. I worked as an Au-Pair in Germany, England (Indian family) and U.S.A. It was fun at that time. The goal was to learn different languages + I love, love kids! I have a question to ask if you don’t mind, but I’m sure a lot of readers would like to know too. I would like to know , how is it possible for someone who was an Au-Pair a year ago, to have such a lovely growing, MONEY making blog in short period of time.?What do you do exactly to achieve this and how did you get to do collaborations in such a short period of time? Please, I would really appreciate if you could share with us here and give me some tips for how to be successful in blogging.?Thank you Amber:)
