The Netherlands for being a tiny country, packs a strong punch to the nuts for its number of quaint towns, as the Dutch do. If I am being honest, I don’t really know what qualifies as a town or city and one time I was speaking in front of 300+ people on a microphone, and […]
When I galavanted around Portugal my route, again, was: Coimbra Coimbra is really something. Definitely worth a full day here. There is the oldest university in Portugal along with some twisting alleyways and a cool view of the layered town from the bridge. Rumour had it that the famous Old (Joanine) Library in the University

I scooted down to southern France for a little 10 day adventure. My route: City of Love Nothing makes you hate hand-holding more than being single in the City of Love. However, I was re-reading Harry Potter so I was guaranteed to have a good time. So I did. I took my book to the

That was the most millennial thing I have ever said, sorry. I meant to say that there are gorgeous photos

No, I didn’t just make up the word Efteling. It is the name of a fan-fricken-tastic amusement park in the Netherlands. It’s based on the Brothers Grimm fairy-tales. Now, you may think oh but I am just simply too old to go to a fairy-tale amusement park. WRONG. Well, mostly wrong. efteling rides There is

As a Dutch gal, or any SANE person really, I am obsessed with cheese. Due to this, I am going to write about it now. Czech Cheese Korbacky: I didn’t know the Czech did cheeses but it once came to me on a platter in Prague so I was destined to taste it. Like the Greek
I have five friends so naturally when three of them came to visit I tried to impress them. I failed miserably. I was living “outside” the city in a place called Amstelveen so that didn’t help. Years later when my brother and sister-in-law came to visit, I lived closer to the city centre in Buitenveldert
