Reasons why Portugal is so popular
Portugal was once an ancient kingdom with hilltop castles and walled towns, almost akin to a setting in Game of Thrones. One of the most memorable things when I first visited was how friendly and open the locals were, even more so if you were a dedicated football fan. The country is made up of…
Austria, a world-class destination
Austria is a world-class destination. It is landlocked country home to some of the greatest musical composers in the world, skiing and action hero Arnold Schwarzenegger. The country is an excellent spot for tourists since it borders Germany, Czech Republic, Slovenia, Slovakia, Italy, Switzerland and Liechtenstein. I took a trip with my adventure buddy Leah…
Lost in Italy, scared and alone!
Hey mate! Belated Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! What are you up to this holiday? My most favourite things to do are giving a surprise visit to my friends and family, or simply travel to new places. I just cannot stay at home during the holiday. I once wanted to surprise my friend in…
I left my heart in Switzerland
When most people think of Switzerland, the idea of skiing and indulging in cheese fondues springs to mind. Though this is indeed a few aspects of the landlocked country, there’s really so much more on offer. Switzerland is probably the most advantageous country to visit if you are an avid traveller. To the west of…
The origins of the infamous Hamburger in Hamburg
It was a typical weekend when one of my friends, Gabe, appeared from nowhere with his car. He wanted to go on an adventure (like most people with cars do). I hopped in, and we hit the road, speeding down the Autobahn faster than Usain Bolt on a horse. Hahaha. The problem was Gabe wanted…
Amsterdam Weekend Away Ideas
As is the case with most big capital cities that I have found, they are great for weekends away and are packed with a vast variety of places to go sightseeing, shopping, and generally looking around. Amsterdam is not that different. The city contains dozens of places to go that are going to be great…
The Mesmerizing Saint-Denis France
Paris is a city with a reputation for being the perfect place to fall in love (maybe because the Eiffel tower looks like a giant robot “pp”). I decided to go off the beaten path, into unknown territory, Saint-Denis. Going into the unknown is sometimes scary. Fortunately, I was with Lea, a beautiful and smart…
A Great Journey Exploring the Royal Land
The British are probably the most notorious of all nationalities; they conquered almost a quarter of the world, drink relatively large amounts of tea and play Ok football. I decided before embarking on my journey to the UK to come up with a bucket-list, in case I ran out of ideas for things to do…
Reasons Why I love Ireland
Just about anyone in the world knows of Ireland and the Irish people, renowned for their ability to tell jokes and free-spirited nature. The Irish don’t take life seriously and will often project a positive mindset over a negative mindset in any situation. On arrival in Ireland, it was raining heavily. The weather was glum…
Hidden Treasures of Budapest
The city of Budapest has many nicknames in Europe. Sometimes it’s referred to as the Paris of East or to my surprise, even the city of Spas. It’s one of those cities in which only when you visit, you are able to put into words the general vibe and atmosphere. It’s mysterious, multicultural and magnificent.…
