In mid March I did a mini-cruise by ferry, from Copenhagen to Oslo and back. I had been working in the office like crazy and urgently needed to refresh my mind. A two-night trip would be perfect. Read here what I liked so much about it. 1. Leaving by ship is something [...]
Endless grey clouds and hardly any winter. That was Belgium during the last months. The idea of taking a trip for a few days to a sunny destination sounded very tempting. Valencia is a fabulous place to discover! Together with its mild climate, this city offers a nice balance between the city [...]
This time we were kind of prepared. We booked a room in Hotel Numero Uno, right on the beach. We arrived around midnight, a well-organized taxi service made it easy for our tired minds to arrive safely at our destination. A no-nonsense warm welcome told me that we picked the right place [...]

This was the 4th time for us in Lisbon and we were happy to be in this city again. Before our cruise on M/V Funchal we stayed one night in Bed & Breakfast Janelas com Vista. Conveniently located in Bairro Alto, the area where most of the restaurants and bars are located. [...]
After enjoying the perfect afternoon tea & scones moment with our friends Bruce and Elspeth we drove to Glasgow. We checked in Citizen M, a Dutch-brand hotel right in the city centre of Glasgow.
