I will add some pictures about this meetup! The meetup was from 25th till the 27th january 2008. It was my first meetup with Travbuddies and I've had a lot of fun. I stayed at a StayOkay Hostel in Amsterdam (vondelpark) together with Devika and stephan. The second day there were some more people …

The second day was a day just for some sightseeing. Everybody else was gone so Anna-Isabel and I walked through the streets and we were heading to the philosophersweg to get an overview of the castle. The weather was not so good. We had to bring our raincoats and actually had to wear them…

Jetlag? What jetlag? The day after I came back from the ridiculously delayed flight from Bangkok I flew a thousand miles again back to Hamburg. Amazingly, I slept all the way from Manila to Dubai, all 8 hours! Amazing not just because I am getting better with sleeping on planes, long flights or not…

  A CRAZY MIND CREATES CRAZY TIMES   I attended our Ireland TravBuddy Get-Together in Bunratty. Originally, I planned on spending six days in enchanting Eire before heading to Brussels for a four-day easyCruise riverboat journey ending in Amsterdam. However, I was informed that ea…

OMG! The alarm went off way too early this morning!  We had got home late the night before from Paris and we had to be up early to get to Amsterdam, which is about 1.5 hours from Brett's apartment to pick up Lynn (Bluemoonadventure), James (Pearcetoyou), and Julie (fjm1006) to start our countr…

Every time I leave for my travels, there's this comforting routine. I work until about 8pm the two days before I leave, my desk at work is suddenly covered in subway maps and travel guides, I discover new clothes and accessories buried in my closet. "Preparing" for this trip has been somewhat uniqu…

The First day was Friday, no, not the 13th! But arriving very early on the airport in Rotterdam and viewing the timetable it looked like the 13th! The holiday’s in Holland were starting so they advised people to leave home early enough. And that is exactly what we did. Early! We had to check i…

A bit hungover after a great night at Bar 55 last night, didn't get up till 1 pm, ooofff my head :( I had some time to kill before the EURO 2008 Final so I did a bit of sightseeing, atleast stuff I haven't seen before in London.  I checked out the Tower Bridge, the Financial District, the Gher…

My bf Klaus and me made a road trip to Norway with my camper in June 2009. We've been on the road for 3 weeks and we drove exactly 4,144 km (= 2,590 miles). Since we've been in the south of Norway last year we wanna see Central Norway this time. We've choosen the west area between Oslo and Kristian…

     Today was a sad day because it was our last day of vacation. It had been a little over 3 weeks of heaven and the impending doom of getting back to real world started to set in. Despite our feelings of sadness we finished our last day with more beautiful sights.   …

Delft an old town just under Den Haag. Delft is built in the year 1200 and in this time Delft build a wall around the town. In the year 1246 Delft became city rights. What can you do on a Monday? And when the temperature is about 29 degrees?  Something on the water would be nice. Delft off…

I had attended the New Year day dinner meetup, it was really a great meetup, glad to see those familiar faces and also those new faces:) I was talking to Devi about arranging a day for a mini meetup, later I thought maybe is nice to have all the ladies gathering one time. So I shared this …

so I'm back in the UK now, doing the reflective thing.  I've lost, over the months, one scarf, one pair of leather gloves, a hat, and my dignity, at least twice.  But I've gained several good friends, some of whom I think will stay friends for a very long time, a grounding in research, so…

I've put this info on already but I can't find it. I will have to keep addding to the same blog and not recreating the wheel.
