Looking Back on the #UltimateEurope2016

Favorite Memory
Joel
When I look back on this near month long adventure it's hard to pin point one activity, one day, one location that I'd call my favorite. But I think the most unexpected joy of the trip was finishing an amazing meal in Prague and going pedal boating on the Vltava followed by miniature golfing in an old abandoned warehouse. It's one of the many instances where I just felt overrun with joy.

My favorite memory definitely was going to the Wine Festival in Budapest. The whole thing was just magical and fun. To be able to try food and wine at the Budapest Castle overlooking the city, and it being so unexpected made it even more special.
