A lot of people look for sun and beaches when traveling with their kids. For us, we were more looking for nice views and new experiences when we recently visited Madeira. The island was great for our purposes, but how was it for traveling with an infant? Here are our thoughts on going to Madeira…
Hello there! Home sweet home is the first thing that comes to mind right now, after three weeks and a half on the road. It was a fantastic holiday, though. I think that we learned a lot on the way. We also saw some truly fascinating places – from picturesque small German towns to some of the…
Yesterday evening we returned to where the adventure started about three weeks ago – Vagnhärad. Our car has now taken us from Sweden to France and back. It has been a great trip with many interesting stops along the road. We will try to summarize it better later on, here is our last day of…
Our road trip is coming to an end and we are now packing up our things here in Aalborg. We are preparing to leave Denmark early tomorrow. The ferry back to Sweden leaves from Frederikshavn in the morning, meaning that tomorrow is the last day of our trip. The weather has once more made our…
Today we have taken the chance to explore Denmark a little further! We left Kolding this morning and continued north towards Aalborg. We will spend two nights here before we’re back in Sweden. Our initial plan was to make a stop in Aarhus which is about halfway to Aalborg. The horrible weather changed our plans….
We arrived in the German city of Stade yesterday and spent the night in a room we found via Airbnb. Stade was early on our list due to its history as a part of the Hanseatic League. Actually, we left Germany today. We are on our way back home to Sweden after a great road…
On day 18 of our road trip, we continued on our way back towards Sweden today after our stop last night in Quedlinburg. Our destination for the day was Stade in northern Germany and that is where we now are spending the night. On our way here we made one stop quite close to Quedlinburg, in the…
We arrived in Quedlinburg yesterday evening. This is when we noticed that we had booked a really large apartment for the night, what a nice surprise! It might actually be larger than our apartment at home. It also took us a long time to realize that we are now in a part of Germany that was…
This morning we left Lahnstein to continue north, back towards Sweden. We first made a short stop for breakfast at Marksburg Castle, then it was a long drive north towards our stop for the night – Quedlinburg. There are three towns in this area of Germany that we want to visit. These are Quedlinburg, Wernigerode,…
Only a 10 minutes drive from where we were staying last night, in Lahnstein, there is quite an impressive castle. Overlooking the town of Braubach is the Marksburg Castle, one of the very few castles along the Rhine river that was never destroyed. Marksburg Castle: The Only One Remaining There are so many castles along…
It is now 17 days since we left Sweden. 17 days we have been on the road. We are currently packing our things again here in Lahnstein to continue north. But I wanted to get to know the town where we are staying and went on a morning walk here in Lahnstein. Unfortunately, we did…
We are on our way back towards Sweden and have spent the night in Lahnstein. It is a small town outside of Koblenz. Right now I’m enjoying my morning coffee, while Jesper is taking a morning walk. It feels like a good time to write more about yesterday. Yesterday morning we left Saarburg quite early and headed…
