Read all about our travels! For us, traveling is a hobby, a passion, a way of life. Here you can join us on our adventures in Europe, Africa, North America, South America, and Asia. We have been to many countries, but there are still many left on our list. Not only do we write about the places we have been to. We also want to share tips and travel inspiration with you. Come along as we travel the world!
As always, we appreciate your comments. And remember, let us know if you have any questions!
Towards the end of a narrow strip of Italian territory lies Trieste. Once upon a time, the town was the most important port of the Habsburg Monarchy. Trieste is a city that is almost surrounded by Slovenia. It is a place where people have traditionally come together, where they have gathered from all around the…
Welcome to our new series about living and working abroad. As this is such a fascinating topic, we have approached some of our friends and family who live abroad and we asked them to tell us about their experiences and their new home. Let’s start with the beautiful capital of the Czech Republic – Prague….
After our day trip to Kazbegi we felt like discovering more of Georgia. With some help from Khatja at the hotel reception, we signed up for a tour to Rabati, Vardzia and Borjomi. This time around we opted for an English-speaking driver and he picked us up from the hotel at 9 am on Sunday….
Malmö is the third city of Sweden and it’s the biggest city in the southernmost area of Sweden known as Skåne (or Scania). The city lies near the Danish capital Copenhagen as well. Not too long ago we decided to visit this city that is also famous for the Eurovision Song Contest, football player Zlatan…
One of the most popular tourist destinations in Georigia lies hidden among the mountains, near the Russian border. Commonly known as Kazbegi, Stepantsminda is a small village where time seems to stand still. Already before embarking on our journey to Georgia, we had already decided that we wanted to visit the mountains that the country…
A mere 48 hours ago we were sitting in a restaurant in one of the most fascinating countries we have visited thus far – Georgia. Before our trip several people asked us about our reasons to visit this small country in the Caucasus. Georgia, or საქართველო (Sakartvelo) as it’s called in Georgian, is not yet a very…
Slovenia sizzles and one of its must-see places is Piran. This lovely coastal town will take you on a journey to times long forgotten, while you enjoy the finer things in life. It’s an old seaport that has preserved its medieval atmosphere with narrow streets and compact houses. Last week we wrote about our trip to…
For a very long time I thought that Brussels was a dull city. The only time I’d dedicate a thought or two to the Belgian capital was somehow connected to the European Union and bureaucrats. And let’s be honest, bureaucracy is boring. And Belgium seemed to have so many more interesting places to offer, like…
Hello, all Sweden fans out there! We thought that we’d share yet another great destination with you – Norrköping! We visited this fabulous town a couple of years ago and it is one of my favorite towns in Sweden thus far. The city center boasts with interesting architecture and there are plenty of things to…
The word Uruguay has always had an exotic, charming, cling to it. This morning I read a thought-provoking novel, El libro de los abrazos, by Uruguayan author Eduardo Galeano and I thought that it would be time to conclude the blog series about our trip to South America. You can read all the previous posts here >>…
Adiós Buenos Aires y buenos días Punta del Este! In our previous post about South America we left Buenos Aires and headed back to Uruguay. Actually, before going to the famous mecca of all parties, Punta, we did spend a couple of more days in Montevideo. Getting to Montevideo was something of an adventure –…
As we walk down memory lane, let’s dedicate a moment or two to Slovenia – and we’re starting with the capital, Ljubljana. We visited this tiny country in southern central Europe in August 2013. At the time we were living in Slovakia (yes, two different countries!) and we wanted to spend our summer holidays somewhere…
