Throwback on pictures on my 2016 Year☆
First of all,
HAPPY NEW YEAR !!
2016 went on pretty quickly; I did quite a lot of new travels and even managed to check something out of my 2017 bucket list beforehand; how amazing is that hey?
Warning, this post might be a little heavy on pictures.
2016 was a little slow to start on my side; I mean, for the first few months, nothing really thrilling happened to me; I was stuck on the University, work, eat, sleep routine, and well, it was boring;
But then it all wrapped up pretty quickly; I wandered a lot in Paris, much more in Spring and Summer. Because obviously, it is much more pleasing to stroll around in decent weather.
There’s also something nice about walks when it’s cold (and not raining).
My friends and I shot a short video for one of our English classes and won first prize. Yes, that was the picture of our poster. Classy.
And I went to Disneyland a LOT because I bought an annual passport, yay.

Finally, I flew to Amsterdam, Netherlands, for a few days. It was my first time there, but I will surely come back and visit more cities in these countries. Plus, the food is so yummy. But you can read more about this in my Amsterdam post. ^-^
I visited Le Chateau de Fontenaibleau, an excellent activity near Paris because you know it’s not only about Versailles.
Then I went to the countryside to see some family for the 3rd time of the year, and while there’s absolutely nothing to do where I stayed, I admit the landscape is pretty cool.
And I like the train station.
Then I went to one cute little city called Auxerre, 1h30 of, a train ride from Paris! It’s small, so getting it down in 2 days is easy. And if you don’t have a car, don’t expect to visit anything else. So it’s a good thing we had some nice people who drove us to some more places. 😀

After I returned to University, I flew to Santorini, Greece, in October for a few days, which can read more details in my Santorini Diary.
I went on a spontaneous trip with some friends and visited Mount Saint Michel with friends!
Finally…I flew to London at the end of the year to see the fireworks ~
But this will be for another post ^-^
2016 was probably one of the years I got to travel the most, not especially big travels, but I did a lot compared to the previous years. I flew out of the country three times, visited various new places, took the train quite a lot to see family, ate a LOT of food and so on. It was a very full yet great year, looking back at it. Let’s hope 2017 is even more thrilling!
I wish everyone the best for 2017!
Bye,
Lyne
