Even if she didn’t believe in fate like Samantha, Natalie couldn’t help but hope to see Andy on their walking tour of the downtown sites. Unfortunately, he was nowhere to be seen. Not when they stood in the vast lines of the Eiffel Tour and the Louvre, nor was he by the Paris Opera House or Notre Dame. Even when they paused for an outdoor lunch in an urban park, surrounded by other happy people enjoying the sunshine, Natalie scanned the scenery for a vaguely familiar face.

Nothing. When she crawled into bed that night, she decided to stick with her resolve to give up on men for a little bit—give up on the prospect of a relationship, anyway. Andy was one man, a wonderfully kind and deliciously sexy man, but he wasn’t the reason she was in Europe. Personal growth was on the agenda for the next few months, and there was absolutely no chance for growth if she was hung up on a guy again. So, even if it was a little disappointing that Andy was only for one drunken night, she knew she had to leave it at that.

What she decided not to leave behind, however, were Sam and Mick. They spent a week taking mini-trips around Paris and the surrounding cities, even venturing down to Nice for a weekend. When all three had checked off every French to-do on their list, Natalie asked where they were headed next. Aachen, a relaxation retreat in Germany, was in the cards for the couple, and before Natalie could hint that she wanted to stay with them, they asked if she was up for a few days at a spa in the beautiful German countryside.

Yes, a thousand times yes. Grateful that she had worked double her hours in the last few weeks at work, Natalie let herself splurge a little. She paid more for a guest suite in Aachen, and forked over some more Euro for a first class train ride to Brussels. Amsterdam came next in the weeks that followed, and she spent a small fortune on clothes and food, finding that she really enjoyed the Dutch culture and lifestyle: laidback yet present was the only way she could think to describe them.

Her legs ached from all the biking she had done in Holland, but her sides were always sore from all the laughter. Mick and Sam were the perfect travel companions: they knew when to give her space and when she wanted company, and Natalie thought she had enough sense to do the same. Euro Trip 2014 was better than she could have ever hoped for, and even as her bank account dwindled day by day, she knew it could only get better from there.

She was sad to see Holland go, and if she had some time to herself again to travel, she vowed to return. However, Mick and Sam suggested taking a boat across the English Channel to get a taste of the tea and crumpets life. They also had a few friends in London, which meant she didn’t have to pay for a hotel room.
