Since I am a Senior AND my GPA is 2.8ish I don't qualify for the Travel Fellowships. But in a perfect world that would not matter some come along with me to my imaginary perfect world.
Amsterdam, Netherlands would be my choice for "New Europe" and not because of the marijuana. The Netherlands was the center of the Northern Renaissance with painters such as Rembrandt, Bruegel the Elder, Heironymous Bosch. They tended to be low key and slightly eerie, a look I am greatly inspired by.
Paris, France is my other choice due to the Impressionists, particularly Degas. Degas for very similar reasons to my admiration for the Dutch Renaissance painters. His scenes of ballet are mesmerizingly spooky and ethereal.
