Exploring Williamsburg, Virginia

Surprise! I'm in America! For the past couple days I've been on a press trip to Williamsburg, Virginia. Despite having moved around a bunch, when people ask where I'm from Virginia is my simple answer. But can you believe I'd never been to Williamsburg before? Living abroad makes it special too that I've had the chance to look inside history and the making of my homeland. Yesterday was a full day with a visit to Colonial Williamsburg, Historic Jamestowne and the Jamestown Settlement, and Yorktown. This is just a sneak peek of what's to come next week, but wanted to share a little glimpse of my adventures. It's been so fun seeing history come alive!

  2. I love Williamsburg. I went to college at William and Mary. At the time, it felt like a tiny town with nothing to do, but now I really miss it.

  4. What a great opportunity to visit your home state. I think you've "made it" as a travel blogger when you get offered press trips. Congrats! :) Also, I love the hats with the long ribbons-so girly and fun. I would have begged my mom for one when I was a little girl.
