Lisbon is a paradise that more and more tourists can find. Tucked away in a remote corner of southern Europe, the Portuguese capital offers everything you're looking for in the summer: sun, terraces, culture and nice people. Ten things you did not know about this pearl on the Atlantic.
Read MoreFor a very long time, I wanted to visit Dresden, this city on the valley of Elba river, which I’ve heard it was bombarded during the second world war by the British and I was super curious to see what the Germans did to rebuild the history of one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
Read MoreWill you soon go on a city trip to a Scandinavian city? Chances are that the temperature will be a lot lower than in your country and everything is covered in snow.
Every season has its beautiful sides, but the winter in Scandinavia has something magical. And especially the northern parts. A landscape under a white blanket, the sun that barely rises above the horizon, the most beautiful wild animals: even the winter hater can see the beauty of it. Today, I will share with you dear reader five tips that can help you survive a real winter trip.
Read MoreI would definitely say Helsinki is a long weekend city break type of place to visit… relax and chill under a lot of green areas. It’s difficult to compare to other Nordic cities (didn’t visit Oslo yet!) but it’s one of the down to Earth kind of cities in the Nordics. The only thing that reminds you of a little bit of Stockholm is the archipelago. It’s so strange to walk the streets and to notice that there are two official languages, therefore all street names are written in Finnish and Swedish. If you get to compare, Swedish are more temperamental meanwhile Finnish are talking quite like they don’t want to disturb nature with any sounds. It’s just a personal opinion, so don’t take that for granted, dear reader!
Read MoreIn general, the Scandinavians have it all arranged well as the people here like to go for quality instead of quantity. However, everything here has a price tag if you get what I am saying. Sweden is not a cheap holiday destination: the average prices here are pretty much higher than in most of the European countries. Where you can get a nice “luxury” lunch in Paris for just 15-20 euros, here you have to spend a little more money. Yet a limited budget does not have to be a reason to avoid the Scandinavian countries. Stockholm is also excellent for travelers on a budget. Here are some tips for enjoying the city in an advantageous way.
Read MoreCan you guess what is the oldest city in Finland, dear reader? This is one of the cities that impressed me the most during our summer road trip. Still no clue? Last hint: it’s also one of the most important passenger and commercial ports in the country with more than 3 million people to reach Mariahamn or Stockholm.
Read MoreFrom Finland to The Baltics – Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania! That sounds like a plan, and this is just a part of my summer holiday. It’s incredible how easy it is to just cross the Baltic sea from Helsinki to Tallinn in only 2-3 hours by ferry. Important to know and not repeat my mistake (I wonder why you read my posts with how many stupid ideas I sometimes have) – so let me tell you the story of how I missed my ferry to Tallinn.
Read MoreFinally, I managed to see Berlin, after years of wishing to go, So, on a Friday morning, I stepped in the city. Berlin is a city that can complain about anything, except, of course, its history and war. I always wanted to see and experience the place where it all began — the beginning of a life-changing experience for a million other people and me in Europe.
Read MoreHong Kong is not a big place to go around compared with New York City, Los Angeles or Tokyo and with signs, generally in both Chinese and English, any traveler with some map skills and of course a map can stroll the city. You will never run out of sightseeing options as this cosmopolitan city is an exciting destination with a mix of Eastern and Western cultures.
Read MoreThere are three countries together that are standing between Russia and the Scandinavia countries, and you can see the marks left on the destiny of these Baltic countries.
Read MoreI am pretty sure most of you, and my dear readers had visited at least one a significant Western European city, a week or just a weekend in Paris, Rome, London, Barcelona. Maybe some of you saw all of the above and even more theatrical ones, and probably all of you had to research a list of landmarks very thoroughly.
You read a lot, watched some YouTube videos, made a plan, and a list of goals, organized by day.
One of the most attractive touristic activities in Lapland is to visit the farms, husky and/or reindeer. I have to say, dear reader, I am an animal lover, and I want to hug and pet any furry creature on Earth; therefore, I was so eager to go to the farms like a little kid is keen to go and open the presents on Christmas morning. My imagination was running wild, thinking about how I am going to be surrounded by either huskies or reindeers, and I am going to play with them for hours. Pff, I was in for a surprise because I was so wrong!
Read MoreDo you remember my Instagram Stories and pictures from Berlin? Yes, exactly, somewhere in August this year, I visited this city filled with history. On top of that, I went to Sachsenhausen concentration camp, a Nazi concentration camp in Oranienburg, 30 minutes outside Berlin, used primarily for political prisoners from 1936 to the end of the Third Reich in May 1945.
Read MoreLike the title says, I now also have a YouTube channel, I want to improve my skills on all social media platforms. Until recently, I was just a “traveler” on YouTube, browsing and watching the work of others, but now, I became a video “producer” or how they call this nowadays "content creator".
Read MoreThere are so many things you can do when it’s really, truly cold outside, and Finnish Lapland is the perfect bucket list destination. It has been a dream of mine since I was a little girl to go to this fairytale winter place, called Lapland! I will tell you more about the most magical experience I had this January while visiting Santa Claus, official hometown.
Do you know what I learned from our trip? I learned that Lapland isn’t just for visiting at Christmastime; it’s very impressive to visit any time of the year with or without kids!

Read MorePeople will never bring this up publicly, unless you do it first and even so, they will never ever agree 100% that Paris is not always a good idea. I am one of those people that felt amazing once I stepped down from the plane in New York, but really knew Paris is not my kind of city in the first 10 minutes from my arrival
