Last week I already wrote about Choccywoccydoodah which is a shop on your “must visit” list if you have a sweet tooth. Don’t stop with one store! Fortnum & Mason is another you will want to try when you are in London. I’ll admit, bring a thick wallet, it’s not cheap to shop around here (though still les...

Choccywoccydoodah – London’s chocolate heaven
It’s been almost two weeks already again since I came back from my short get-a-way to London. I went over for four days to visit a close friend. She moved there in January so I had all reasons to go by and explore the city together (again). One of the places on our must vist list was Choccywoccydoodah...
The Dominican – The heart of central Brussels
The Dominican is a luxury hotel in the heart of Brussels. It’s located right behind “La Monnaie” in a quiet non-traffic street. It’s a beautiful design hotel with elements of the painter Jacques-Louis David (who used to live in the building) and the cloister it used to be; a combination of modern and historical elegance. The room rates...
Europe Bucket List – Part Two
Last year, I already wrote about 5 places/countries which are on my bucket list for Europe – my home continent. Since it is a new year it is time for an addition of another 5 cities/countries. I’m also very curious for anything in Europe you have on your bucket list! So far on the bucket list were the...
Photo Diary: Amsterdam Light Festival
I finally visited the Amsterdam Light Festival last weekend. The festival takes places every year and displays many different kinds of light art work. The theme this year is “Friendship”. There is both a walking route and one you can do by boat. Unfortunately, the walking route for this year has already ended but you can still go...
Cologne: Christmas market(s)
Two weeks ago I visited Cologne. I already blogged about the very impressive Kölner Dom but of course there is more to this city. I mostly went because of the Christmas market in Cologne. It might be a bit early to already start thinking about plans for next year around Christmas time, but if you like planning ahead...
What happened in 2015 and what’s in store for 2016?
Happy New Year everyone! I hope you all had a great night and that 2016 has started off with a blast. Since it is the first week of 2016 I thought it was time to flashback to 2015 and have a little preview of what 2016 (hopefully) brings. This blog officially launched in October 2015 so of course...
Photo Diary: Cologne Cathedral
I’ve had such an amazing time in Cologne this weekend. It was my first time going there and I absolutely loved it. If you were considering adding it to your travel bucket list: do it! Especially in the days surrounding Christmas. I guess everyone who has ever considered going to Cologne looked into visiting the Cologne Cathedral (or...
Photography Inspiration: Nathaniel Buzolic
Do you know that feeling when you come across someone’s (travel) photos and you wish you coud capture a moment like that? I spend my time regularly scrolling through Instagram looking at everyone’s amazing photos. While I wish often that I could capture photos like that, they also inspire me to improve my own skills. The travel photos...
I’m off to Cologne!
I’ll be spending my weekend in Cologne! I’m super excited as I have never been there before. We’ll be strolling around the Christmas market and visiting the cathedral for sure, but if you have any other must-visits, please let me know. Of course I will blog about it here afterwards, but I will do my best to update...
