Basically I went travelling around Europe for a week and a half and, like any good road trip should, it opened my mind a little. Clichés abound. Also YOLO. Full disclosure: Yes, Contiki sent me on this trip for free. No, they didn't pay me, and no, they didn't even ask me to say nice things about them (which should hopefully be clear from the fact that I didn't always say nice things about them, although generally I do think they're great).
