Out of this world.

This past weekend has been my favorite in Europe so far.

While strolling through a little village called Hartington, I came upon a cozy cottage that I've decided is to be my future home. (See above.) As if it's not already perfect, the village is surrounded by acres and acres of beautiful countryside.

The next day, I paid a visit to Mr. Darcy at Pemberley (also known as The Chatsworth House). Our eyes met for the first time, and wouldn't you know it, he told me I had bewitched him body and soul. (Must be his only line.) Looks like we're getting hitched, y'all. I assured him I'd return to England as soon as possible to work out the details of our countryside wedding.

Look familiar? This is where Darcy runs into Elizabeth in the 2005 film version of Pride & Prejudice! Is it sad that this is probably the most starstruck and #fangirly that I’ve ever been? This is the exact location that my two favorite movie characters fell in love!

Less than 24 hours later, I was exploring the wonders of Hogwarts and drinking Butterbeer to calm my excited nerves. The Warner Bros. Harry Potter Studio Tour is overwhelmingly magical, and if you ever have the chance to go, I highly recommend it.

What would we do in a world without great writers? I owe everything to the imaginative minds of Jane Austen and J. K. Rowling for feeding my soul on a daily basis. But alas, don't we all?
