Europe Travel Blogs

.... and finally it has come to an end. we may not have followed the original road of our roadtripping map, we missed andalucia, the great desert beaches, swam in the beaches of algarve in portugal, and the beautiful cities of sevilla and granada, but we were on a "trip" that many lessons in life t…

I returned from my first trip around the World a different person, something had changed inside me. I'd always had an inquisitive urge to discover what our Earth really looked like, but nothing had prepared me for what travelling would bring into my life. Its a bit like been a baby and disc…

So in the end maybe it’s as simple and gentle as that.  A pleasant bowl of luscious pasta with mince, olives and smoked applewood cheese knocked together by my sis.  A few final photos accompanied by assurances and promises to catch up with each other “soon” somewhere, somewhen on t…

It's end of May already as you all know but I still haven't finished blogging my trips from October of last year and here I am again, leaving soon this place that has been my home for a very long time.... 7 months to be exact, and that is…

David and I shopped a little in the morning and stopped by the ferry office to check on any ferries to Mykonos.... We were surprised to find the next ferry would leave the next day in the afternoon and would take hours.....  We decided to fly.... but it meant we would arrive in the late night …

On Monday morning, Dennis and I headed out early. It had been raining and was supposed to be a little slick, but we made it to Schiphol just fine. Dennis dropped me off and I went in and did my check-in. I would be meeting Erin this morning because we were flying back to the states together. But I …

Monday saw the numbers dwindling down to four, three, two, and finally just Sylvie.  On Monday morning I was awake before 7. I always have this phobia of waking up late on the day I have to be at the airport, but as usual, I ended up waking long before I was supposed to. But it gave me time …

Today was Day One of a ten-day visit to Central Anatolia, Turkey. We spent the first half of the day in the city of Konya. We didn’t have high expectations of this town (based on our guide book), but were surprised to find a very pleasant, leafy, super clean, and friendly town. I started the morn…

This national day was greeted with fantastic weather; there were more than 30 degrees Celsius. I was thinking about walking in to the city but I was not sure that I would stay there. I took the car and I was sure I done the right thing. Brussels Centrum was completely blocked so I decided to v…

first of all i want to thank you guys for coming to the meet up in a not-so well known city in europe. many people have never heard of düsseldorf before outside the germanic speaking countries, but you did and you've put düsseldorf on the map. i dont know how many times will i have to say t…

I forgot how beautiful Europe is in the summer. It's just about 10pm and the sun has barely set. I remember this happening in Geneva during the summer - the sun would set at 11pm and I thought it was the most extraordinary gift to have such lovely weather and some extra time to be outside and get t…

If I am not wrong I woke up at 3am in the morning, had to be early at the airport to catch my flight back to Barcelona. It was dark and cold and I was alone at the bus stop. I am a bit paranoid lol, so the few ppl that could cross on the streets, well, everybody was suspicious haha. Although t…
