Hello! It's the next day now and today I didn't do much.
So I decided to come to the coffee shop that's literally right next door to my hostel, which is so nice.
I've been to this coffee shop before, it's called Coffee Fellows and it's really cute.
I really like it. I went to this one in Belgium. I had this coffee shop in Belgium.
So I went there and I really liked it. So when I saw that it was here, I was really excited.
So I'm just chilling. I actually got some Subway because Subway is so cheap.
I get a footlong and what I do is I'll eat half of it for one meal and then I'll save the other half for another meal and it's great.
And it's like not that expensive. So just trying to save my money out here.
And I got a caramel macchiato, which if you know me, you know, that's my drink of choice like all the time.
And it's really good. I had to add a little bit of like something, something to make it not so strong.
And what have I been doing today? So I woke up late, but that's okay.
I was up really late editing a Instagram story that we were going to post on this Instagram called Latinas who travel.
And we, it's just, it's run by a friend of my sister's and she basically just posts Latinas who travel.
And it's cool because different Latinas can take over the Instagram when they're traveling.
And since my sister and I were traveling, we filmed us going to Sartica, which is the Basilica in Paris.
And we filmed that and I uploaded it and I made it kind of cute. I added like stuff from Procreate and stuff and it was really fun.
And this morning, two other girls moved in to my room, which I'm kind of happy about because I was getting really lonely.
Like I was saying yesterday, I was feeling really lonely. So having like human interaction has been great.
So they're so sweet. One of them is from the United States and one of them is from Belgium, she said.
And yeah, so it's been really nice to have other people and today's Halloween. Oh my God.
Today's Halloween and I don't know what to do. Well, I can't dress up because I literally don't have anything.
I mean, I could wear this if we did, like if I didn't, I'm going somewhere.
I could wear this and like go to like, I don't know, go to a bar and pretend to have like a picnic table.
And what else do I have to update you on? Oh, yeah.
So when I was sitting here, I was looking at, I was watching dance videos.
If you know me, I can say that, if you know me, but something about me is that I absolutely love dance.
Like I love dance. I love watching people dance. I love dancing.
I just love dance and I think I got that from my Latina roots, but I love dancing.
And so when I, since I was little or not little, since I was like 14, 13, I always wanted to be a hip hop dancer,
but I never, I never really seeked it out. I did when I was at a gym, they had like free classes.
Well, not free because you're paying for the gym, but they had classes, like hip hop dance classes or fitness.
And I did those and I loved them, but I kind of didn't keep up with it.
And I'm really sad because I'm like, well, if I would have started then, even at 14,
that would have been like so many years by now that I would have been dancing.
But I was watching like a hip hop dance, a hip hop dance video for Daki Daki,
the new song with Selena Gomez, Cardi B and Osuna, which is such a good song.
And it's so good. Oh my God. They're so amazing. It's crazy. And I'm so jealous.
I'm like, I wish we could do that, but yeah, so I was watching that and eating myself
and now I'm going to get some work done.
I'm going to edit my haul because I hauled some things that I bought from Paris
and I'm going to drink my cafe and yeah, so I'll check in with you later.
Good morning. So today is Thursday.
It's the next day and I came back to the same coffee shop that I came to yesterday
because it was right next to my hostel and it's just so cute.
It just gives me like homey vibes and I feel like very at peace here.
I don't know how coffee shops just have that effect on me, but I came back for breakfast here.
So I got a salmon bagel. Oh my God, this looks so good.
Salmon bagel with cream cheese on a sesame bun.
And then I got a matcha latte. Now, can we appreciate how beautiful this looks?
Like, oh my God, this looks just glorious. I can't wait to, oh my God, amazing.
And also the foam on top, like amazing.
And I am going, I'm heading to the Hague today because I'm meeting up with the, one of, okay.
So my host's nephew also lives in the house with me in France.
So her mom or her family lives in Hague, which is like 30 minutes from Amsterdam.
So I'm going to meet up with her and she's letting me stay in her home, which is so nice of her
because I didn't realize, but the prices of the hostel went up like crazy,
like three fold for Friday and Saturday and tonight too.
So that's crazy. I'm like saving so much money.
So I'm really happy that she's letting me stay with her. It's so nice of her.
So I'm going to eat breakfast, head over to, well, maybe just do like a little bit of browsing over here and all that.
And then I'm going to go to the Hague and then I'm going to meet up with her and I don't know what else I'm going to do.
Maybe explore the Hague a little bit, but I'm very excited to explore a different part of, is it in Amsterdam?
I don't think so. So to explore a different part of the Netherlands. So let's do it.
No ties. No price. No need. So free.
I don't care what you say, what you do, how you feel. As long as you can show me a good time.
I don't need promises, honestly, no big deal. As long as you can show me a good time.
I don't care.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
I'm here for pleasure. So don't you put pressure on me to get into.
All I need is your time, devotion I don't wanna be so emotional
Just wanna dance, want a simple romance Nothin' more, nothin' less from you
No price, no need, so free I don't wanna be so emotional
And I don't care what you say, what you do, how you feel
As long as you can show me a good time I don't need promises, honestly no big deal
As long as you can show me a good time I don't care
Oh, oh, oh

there's not too much to do here but it's still really really beautiful and I
absolutely love it here there's so much so many canals there's still the canals
that are typical of like Netherlands and Amsterdam and it's so so beautiful I've
been here since yesterday last night I got in and I've had like such an
incredible time here I am so sad to be leaving tomorrow so I'm leaving back to
Paris tomorrow morning so I have to get up really freaking early at like 7 in
the morning which is not super freaking early actually what am I talking about

at so I leave from her house at 8 in the morning and then I go back to Paris my
train leaves from Amsterdam to Paris at 11 in the morning so a sister has to
leave freaking early and I don't know I'm just really excited I literally just
said I'm sad to leave I am really sad to leave but I'm also very excited to go
back to Paris because I haven't spoke French in like so long and I feel like
I'm forgetting my French already I've only been in Amsterdam for like three
four days no five days now I've been in the Netherlands and I feel like I need
to I need to get back to practicing my French so I'm gonna do that I'm very
excited and then I go back to work on Monday so right now I'm packing all of
my shite and I got a coffee of course I can't stay away from the Starbucks even
when I'm in Europe I'm sound so freaking American I also got a leather jacket
from Primark and guess how much it was was so cheap I mean it probably isn't
but it's still really freaking cute and I love it I'm just really happy I found
a leather jacket I've been wanting to buy a leather jacket for the longest
time but I don't know they're usually really really expensive I mean I don't
know how this one is gonna last because it was really cheap but I mean it looks
nice you know it looks pretty nice I also got this watch today from H&M and
it was also really freaking cheap I think it was only 19 euros and it's
really nice I've been wanting a watch like a nice big watch that I can wear to
work for like the longest time so I'm so happy I finally got one and it's so cute
I think it looks so freaking like yanks Beach I know what I'm doing okay also

so cute it's all like different types of boobs so cute I got this from Urban
Outfitters in Amsterdam and I saw it and I was like I really don't need this but
I just like oh my god I literally sound like I have a problem I mean I do have a
problem I do have a shopping problem we can already acknowledge that but can I
show you my new shoes I've wanted a pair of like the dad shoes trend and I walked
this shoe store in Amsterdam that's called JD and I've never heard of it but
I saw that they were selling these so I walked in and I was like okay if they
have my size because literally every time I've been to a shoe store in Europe
they never have my size I feel like Europeans just have really small feet
like I do I don't know I don't really don't know but my size is always sold
out it's literally always sold out so I was like okay if they have my size
it's because they never have my size if they have my size that means it's meant
to be so I walked in I asked them I was like okay I really want the Fila dad
shoes and I was like do you have US 6 and the guy was like let me check and I
was just like okay just sitting there waiting sitting waiting and then he
comes back and he's like here you go and I was like bruh so I bought them and
they're just so cute I'm so happy I like don't even want to wear them cuz they're
so white right now and I'm like terrified that they're gonna get really
dirty but I just love them so much okay I'm done I'm done talking about
materialistic shallow things so I'm gonna continue packing and then we're
off to Paris tomorrow
