Sometimes during travel, you want excitement. And sometimes you want to lay back and relax. To me, Barcelona has both.
Travel Favorites: Treasures on every street (Historic Sites)
One of my favorite travel destinations for historic sites is Italy. The country is plastered with historic building and ruins from every time period since the antiquity. I love wandering through its cities and admire remnants of Ancient Rome or the Italian renaissance.
Cee’s Midweek Madness Challenge: Color Pink
Thank you to Cee for this week's photo challenge. The picture was taken in Irvington, New York (USA) in Jun 2020.
Travel Favorites: Feeling like royalty (Service)
From the moment we got there, we were treated and pampered at every step of the way. Starting with complementary welcome massages, every room and corridor smelling of fresh flowers, delicious food, great drinks, lovely and approachable staff that seemed to anticipate your every need.
Travel Favorites: Big city vibes (Metropolis)
When it comes to cities, I personally love London. Amazing architecture, great food, lovely museums, smooth public transportation, fascinating markets... What's not to love?
Thoughts: And I held my breath
How did get this far? How did the conspiracy theories and lies take the upper hand and get people who claim to be patriots and love this country decide to attack it's democratic foundation? Things should never have gotten this far.
Life in Colour: Brown
Thank you to Travel Words for this photo challenge. This month's color is "Brown".
Life in a pandemic #5: Fatigue comes in waves
I can't lie. This week, I am feeling the grind. And I know that I am not the only one. No matter who I talk to, everyone is feeling some form of corona fatigue. Paired with winter fatigue, it can feel like a inexplicable weight.
Food adventures: Sushi Lô (Hamburg, Germany)
If you happen to be in Hamburg and are looking for good sushi, I would recommend Sushi Lô in Rotherbaum near U Hallerstraße.
Travel Favorites: Prepare for impact (Most fascinating)
I was aware that India would be very different from I had encountered before. I was theoretically prepared for the stark contrasts and ready to embrace the expected culture shock. But all my years of research and love from afar did not prepare me for the actual impact it had on me.
Travel Favorites: Taking in the scenery (Nature and Landscapes)
I used to say that I am a city girl through and through. When it came to travel, I was focused on city trips and architecture, the idea of the country side and nature bored me. Until I made it to Vietnam... and was convinced otherwise.
Travel Favorites: To my stomach’s content (Food)
When it comes to food, my favorite travel destination is definitely Thailand. Specifically for its street food. I was blown away by the diversity and flavor pallets that you get to encounter all across the country.
