London and Ireland!


Woohoo what's up fans?! It's been a while but honestly we are so busy doing fun awesome and amazing things we barely have time to respond to the thousands of Facebook messages and friendship requests let alone write blog posts...so yeah..

Haha no jksjks we miss you all.

So we obviously went to london and Ireland because the title says so and it's also a fact. We loved it and are obsessed and just cannot stop looking at our pictures because they are beautiful (and so are lol duh we joking but not actually)

Emily was with CATHY (aka her mom!!!) so she came Saturday but I left with Zoe Friday!

FRIDAY:
- left for the airport 
- woohoo excited 
- get to Ireland 
- OMG honestly so many hours of stopping and travelling and waiting and then more moving 
- finally arrived at the hotel 
- yes, hotel! That's right people we are fucking fancy
- nono the truth is we waited to long to book a hostel and we were in a somewhat bad position were we had paid for no refundable flights but also had no where to stay so yeah
- the hotel is called the bracebridge hotel and i would say that I would recommend it to no one 
- it was a bad hotel pretending to be a nice hotel 
-  if it had just embraced the fact that it was gross it would've been fine, but the bracebridge was just a straight imposter!
- highlights include: spider in the bathroom, shower cap over the smoke detector to cover the fact that the last tenants were smoking, no cot so we all slept on one bed which was really cozy
- unexciting night we basically just went to bed 

SATURDAY: 
- woke up, flawless
- went to. Place for breakfast called roleys lol yum 
- a thing to do in Dublin is just have bacon on as sandwich which nothing else
- sure! Why not?!

B e a utiful!

On this street the doors in Dublin are painted different colours so the drunk men can find their house when they stumble home wasted from the bar!

Cool old man singing! Cool!

Got a six pack and sat on the grass to listen to live music!

Music!
Other highlights of the day include:
- walked to the shopping street and took in all the St. Patricks stuff and just loved it! Live green, breath green if ya know what we mean?!
- went on a bus tour 
- food 
- waited for Emily since she was arriving Saturday evening 
- she finally arrives!
- met her In the temple bar district which is the party area if Dublin
Met some really nice gentelman! (Felt more like almost violation though)

Yay she arrives! We don't even let her drop her things off! Instead we collect her from the streets and force to go on an Irish pub crawl! WOOHOO

Everyone plz note that Emily brought her whole bag for the entire pub crawl! you go glen coco! 

Things about the pub crawl:
- over priced and over rated! 
- the shots we got where weird and gross 
- we did get some pizza
- eventually go home and go to bed because we need to rest up!

SUNDAY: 
- cliffs of mohar today! WOOHOO!
- got up and was ready for food
- had to resort to theft
- stole like 8 croissants from the hotel buffet but honestly NO regrets 

Took a lil nap on the way there 

!!!!!!

The baby cliffs!

More baby cliffs!

Obsessed

You guys jelly or what?? (This isn't even the real deal!!!!)

Yay! We are here and we LOVE it!! So beautiful!!

It was pretty windy! Not as if we care though BECAUSE WE LOVED IT SO MUCH!

Qt

Ye

The rock in the background was in the 6th Harry potter film!!

Hehe!

Risked our lives for this photo but was definitely worth it!


Considered pushing her off the cliff here! (Haha don't worry guys things are going well with the living situation I'm only king about the whole murder thing lol lol whatever) 
Small tiny Irish town! Are we not just the cutest or what? Ugh

- our bus drivers name was john and he sang a lot of songs 
- favourites included "galaway girl" look it up we love it!
- kinDOF exhausting

Finished the night with a nice hearty meal! I think most people who say "why would you even put such a picture on the internet" but my response is stfu I think we look really hot here!

MONDAY:
- st pattys wootwoot 
- the cutest girls are ready to go with all our green gear 
- go to the parade. This is a really big thing in Ireland, they have st pattys parades all over the country 
- special shoutout to GRAY AND SAVANAH NORMAN and also STEPH SCANLAN who all celebrated their 21sts. Hbd guys! We love you all!

Ernest is ready to go!

There were SO many people! It was actually kinDOF stressful, it was I possible to find somewhere to see the floats! Ugh. Should also be noted that alcohol was not being sold until 3pm which is something that I would say is a sneaky Irish trick 

Got some mcdonalds for lunch (what else is new though?)

Absolutely adorable!

Standing on some railings, whatever!

Finally decided we NEEDED alcohol! Uh oh here we go guys

Got our first beers  and feeling prtu good about it 
- then went to the confident store and each got a six pack of tall boys
- drank 3 of those beers each outside then got more
Honestly this picture is just a total mystery. No body remembers taking it so interpret how you will!

- kk time for the pubs
- obvs cannot afford the expensive prices at the bar so when we got there we got glasses of ware and stealthily filled them with beer for Zoe's backpack (ps did we mention we went with our friend Zoe? Well ya we did) 
Oh god 

Haha

Live music! Emily kept requesting Mumford and sons and we loved it!

Some guy named Flo bought us these drinks! Shoutout to you Flo! Thanks Flo!

Good pic, right?

Haha, we think this is the man, the legend, FLO!!

- HONESLTY wish we could tell you more about this part of the night 
- we did finish our beer 
- as the night went on we just got gutter and started pouring it out of try backpack on the dance floor
- met some people 
- Irish stuff
- we did some questionable things 
- good night
- extremely drunk (is there any point in even trying to say this in a nicer way?!!!)
- woke up at 5am the next morning for our flights YAY!

TUESDAY: 
- Emily goes back to Denmark, Cathryn and Zoe move into London! Woohoo London calling whatup gangsters 
- arrived alive 
- cool
- went to Camden market where we got edgy sweaters, an Indian tapestry (Instagram ppl) and lots of food 
- met up with Arabella! Shoutout! 

WEDNESDAY: 
- Harry potter tour

TBH fun but mostly overrated (ps butter beer was weird gross  and overall suspicious) 

Afterwards we went to Camden market where we treated ourselves to 2 meals and some desserts #noregrets 

- went out to a bar 
-layer foozball 
- free drinks 
- good times 
- Lalala 
- drunk again (do we have an alcohol problem? Honestly all we do is drink..??) 
- scary (possible serial killer) in hostel said really quietly "don't touch me motherfucker" when I accidentally brushed his foot when climbing into hostel bed....
- I would absolutely consider this a near death experience 


THURSDAY: 
- shopping
- did brunch with Arabella
- national gallery
- walking blahblah 
- back home! Almost missed the flight lol WOOPS 
- tired 

ALSO: Emily did go to London but a week earlier with her Mom!
Love these cuties! 

I think this blog post has gotten progressively worse the more I write because it's just so long! I hope it makes sense! Honestly too lazy to retread it at this point #yolo

In other news making more friends with Danes, did Jell-O shots Saturday night and the weather is really nice here.

Also want to throw a special mention to EMMA BOYNTON who we know has been reading the blog and commenting a lot. Thanks girl! We appreciate you! Mwah

JUDAISM!!!! (And other things)



Wow wow wow guys! Sorry, it's been so long? Where any of you worried???? I hope not!!! Although I will assume all of you just thought we were fine since none of you commented or messaged us to inquire about the blog..........


Anyways I bet you're all just dying to hear about the Jewish dinner. Well first let me say that it was a huge success, like potentially life changing to the people who had never tried any Jewish food.

Challah bread!!!! What what am I a chef? Tbh yes... Like look at this

All cooked!!! (Looks a lil burnt honestly wasnt though and even if it was a little bit it was all the oven)
- a lot of people had never eaten this before 
- I honestly did just an okay job but people went nuts 
- YOLO went with it!

There are actually no other pics of the prepared food really since that was Emily's job (sorry to expose you em) and she did kinDOF a bad job.... Ugh... But we can summarize the night anyways!!

- invited lots of exchange people. Tbh got a bit out of hand but we just couldn't say no!
- also invited all our new Danish friends 
- recipe for success or potential disaster! This was a success though #thankgod #thankthejews 
- we only requested that people bring alcohol and some people brought some appetizers and desserts
- all the guests have arrived!
- okay I would things were going really well at this point 

So cute, look at the table!!

Here's all the guests: (from left to right) Emily, Jill, Esben, Louise, Jens,Louise, Marie, Phillip, Mathias, Alice, Vicky, Zoe, me and Becky took the pic!

Erasmus ladies!!


Everyone is just excited about judiasm! Plz note the Jewish stars people were sticking on their faces 

Here I am saying a lil Jewish prayer (yes I do know a Jewish prayer, haters) I also made everyone repeat it. I would say Israel would be pretty pleased with the way I was pushing the Jewish agenda #laheim 

Uh oh...  This is when the DRAMA starts though. I made 2 roast chickens and put them on a plastic platter but at this point they had gotten cold. Becky suggested we turn the oven on he highest heat and put them in while I run downstairs and get some things and also while people eat latkas!

Well, everyone, this is a really good lesson on the basic principle of how plastic melts in the oven. All my chicken was covered in melted plastic and lots of people inhaled burning plastic fumes #sos #wherearethemacabes 

Guys, I know this is so dumb!! But are we not adorable enough to pull it off!???? Don't judge us!!

Anyways, things obviously ended up being fine. Louise and Emily went and got prepaid chicken and I used this opportunity to keep the guests occupied and confused with alcohol. I happened to have a. Bottle of bourbon so just made everyone do shots of that! #hosting101withcathrynlevine

As you can see people were not that enthused at first

Obviously things quickly turned around though 

Drunk

Drunk

Emily just burst into the bathroom and I literally don't think I have ever been happier #DRUNK

Drunk

Drunk!

Absolutely stunning!

- played flip cup again
- people are literally obsessed 
- does anyone know who started this? If eel like we should get some sort if commission for popularizing it in Denmark...
- at one point 10 people were just chanting "Jewish Jewish Jewish..." 
- drank around 16 bottles of wine and a bottle of bourbon
- cinabuns were involved 
- this was earlier but it should still be mentioned: Louise made matzah!! And she told me it was so easy to make and that Jews are dumb because they buy it 
- got some noise complaints bc it was a Wednesday
- why do people have a problem with people chanting Jewish? If anything they should embrace the diversity????? Ugh god 
- it is so hard to be a cultural pioneer sometimes 
- at 11 we decided to take the party the bar
- more drinks
- shots were involved we think
- also made people sing happy birthday to me in Danish 
- the night was a success!!
- I think this was partly because I got my guests so dry they couldn't remember if they had a bad time or not
- honestly full proof method to be a good host though!! #cathryntips #tryitout #letsgetthistrending 

Since then not much has happened. Cathryn Broughton has arrived and we have just been enjoying the GOOD weather while canada deals with 4ft of snow and negative 0 temperatures LOL

Cute and exclusive pic! #instagramismymodelingagency

Ooo what? Just looking European, whatever 

Is that us at the beach? Yes it is!

Anyways off to Dublin to celebrate st Patricks day with real Irish people and then off to a quick stop in the original London. Enjoy the snow losers!!!!!!!


No joking we do feel bad, but also not that bad that it will effect our trip in any way shape or form ;)

Xoxo mwahmwahmwah
