My Guide to Europe

On my recent holiday to Europe I stopped in France, Scotland, England and then on the way back I had a couple of hours in Abu Dhabi. I had some great experiences and some odd experiences, so here's my guide to Europe;

1. Go into every giftshop you can, by all means go into the actual museum or exhibit but the giftshop always have cool gadgets and nick nacks, particularly pens and rubber ducks.

2. Go to wherever you really want to, if there is somewhere, just one place you are desperate to go that you can manage. On my trip I went to Teignmouth, the town where Muse grew up and also to a guitar shop in Exceter, it may have taken a total of eight hours driving but it was a fantastic experience.

3. Try Irn Bru, it is probably the best drink ever made. It is made in Scotland and as the slogan says "it's made from girders". Irn Bru is a fantastic drink that can be found in almost all shops in Scotland and can be found in supermarkets and some shops in England.

4. Go to Pret A Manger, this very healthy fast food option is a fantastic way to eat healthy and eat cheap. Pret specialises in food cooked in the Pret Kitchens, I reccomend the Hot Swedish Meatball Rap, it is really tasty and nice for cold British weather.

5. When in France I can only reccomend living off only croissants, baguettes and cheese for a few days. Crispy croissants from a local bakery are good in the morning with jam or without. There is a great variation of cheese in France and I must admit that my family bought a bit to much cheese and we ended up taking some back to England. Baguettes are a beautiful french food and they are much more than just simple bread, baguettes have a lot of flavour and can work for breakfast with jam, for lunch with cold meat and for dinner with some nice bruschetta or bbq chicken.
