Hello and welcome to my blog! My name is Lyndsey Roberts and I am from Denver, Colorado. I attend school at the University of Colorado in Denver. I have recently started attending a geography class and am so excited to begin learning about what shapes our Earth!

I have chosen to write a blog about the beautiful city-state of Monaco. Monaco is located on the French Riviera, and is completely surrounded on three sides by France. I originally noted Monaco’s geographic beauty when watching one of the most prestigious Formula One races on TV, The Monaco Grand Prix. Upon watching the auto race, I noticed the small streets, the constant change of elevation throughout the city, and the beautiful harbor of Monaco. Since then, I have always dreamed of visiting Monaco, perhaps to watch the Grand Prix in the real. I think Monaco is extremely unique because of its location on the water, and the fact that it is not a part of France. On the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, Monaco experiences fair weather conditions all year round, and is a very desirable tourist town. Perhaps, someday in the distant future, I will retire in Monaco. Until then, I shall study it’s geographic wonders!
