A 6 day road trip through France with my Dad! After coming out of a winter in lockdown, it was about time for another trip. As I learned from last year, the perfect time to go abroad is during the summer as I don’t have much hope going anywhere coming Fall. For years I wanted…
Visiting South Limburg in the Netherlands is always a good idea! This time I decided it would be fun to explore the hills of Limburg by e-bike. The day started in the town Voerendaal where we picked up our bikes at Roger Flucken. For €25 a day we rented a new VELO DE VILLE AEB…
With a winter storm passing over the entire country, everyone in the Netherlands forgot all about Covid-19 this past week. It started with a snow storm and followed by a week of freezing temperatures. The questions everyone asked: “Will there be an Elfstedentocht (an 11 city ice skating event in Friesland) this year”? But one…
On 21 June the COVID-19 lockdown in Spain was lifted. On 25 June I flew to Malaga airport. Being on Schiphol airport in these times felt surreal, to me it was unclear where it was mandatory to wear a face mask and where not. Finally on board the airplane I noticed it was reasonably full;…
During the Covid-19 lockdown it’s good to treasure the beauties of your own country. On the 20th of June, the night before my birthday and the longest day of the year, I enjoyed the sunset with my friend Wendy at the beach in Scheveningen. At midnight I was astounded to still see a small glimpse…
Whoohoo, an unexpected last-minute trip to Scotland. A birthday gift from my Dad, and as a travel enthusiast there is no better birthday gift to give! We had 4 full days to travel through Scotland, what to do? Day 1: Alnwick castle and border town abbeys From IJmuiden my Dad and I took the ferry…
When I planned my visit to the Algarve, on top of my to-see-list was the rocky coastline. Strangely enough my lonely planet focused on which towns to see, which routes to drive and which highlights to visit. But I missed information about which beaches would be most spectacular. Luckily the best beaches and rock formations…
Right now it’s the summer of 2018 and I believe this might be the best summer this country has ever witnessed. Well at least that I’ve ever witnessed in those 33 years that I’m alive, okay those 28 years that I’m fully aware. What I’m getting to is that coming to the Netherlands this year…
A new year, a new city trip. My plan to visit Athens was already made in October last year, we just had the worst summer and I desperately needed some sun and heat. Therefor April is the perfect time to visit the Greek capital; the weather is perfect (nice and warm) but not the smog…
As a travel girl I love being abroad, but sometimes I have to appreciate the beauty in my own country too. I love the Netherlands, but mostly because of the tolerance people, the freedom, the old cities, the work-life balance and so much more. But on this Sunday in April I took the time to…
