When flipping through a photo album old travel photos, I came across my holiday to Lake Garda. I still have very fond memories of this place, and I think it’s often overlooked by international travellers (whereas it’s very popular among Dutch and German people). Therefore, I will share with you our 5 day Lake Garda …
There are several reasons why Girona should be on your list of places to visit in Spain. Firstly, Ryanair advertises it as Barcelona Girona Airport (even though Barcelona is 100 kilometers south of Girona), so you might get stuck in Girona when you thought you were flying to Barcelona! Then it’s best to make the most of …
You’ve probably heard of Rotterdam, a city in the Netherlands with a lot of modern architecture. But have you also heard of Dordrecht, a very old city in the Netherlands, only 15 minutes by train from Rotterdam? My boyfriend and I had never been to Dordrecht, so we hopped on a train and set out …
When I visited Seville, I had to include a visit to the roman ruins of Italica. Not only because I love to visit Roman ruins, but also because it was a filming location for Game of Thrones season 7! The amphitheatre in Italica (in which 25,000 people could be seated) was transformed into the dragonpit …
We always seem to think that the best places to visit are somewhere far away and not in our own home country. However, it can be very surprising and rewarding to visit some sights closer to home (and I just love castles). Therefore, one week ago my boyfriend and I got on a train to …

From the end of September till December 2017, I studied abroad in the UK at the University of Warwick. At the end of my stay, I knew there was one thing I still wanted to do very very much, namely to visit Wales. So, when I saw a Black Friday sale on the Virgin trains website, I …
Many times, I have visited the Loire valley on holidays with my parents, for the first time in 2008. On these holidays, we obviously had to visit several of the famous castles that you can find in this area. Exploring these castles really fostered my love for history and architecture. In this blogpost, I will …
In sunny (although not so sunny when I visited the region..) Andalusia, in the south of Spain, the gorgeous town of Cordoba can be found. The town has a very interesting history and several different cultures have ruled over the city. It’s definitely worth to visit as a day-trip from Seville.
After visiting the Isle of Skye, I continued my first trip to Scotland by going to Mallaig and Fort William. After hesitating whether to head for Oban and skip Fort William or stay in Fort William one day longer and then heading to Loch Lomond by bus, I picked the latter. I would have had …
