Barcelona is a treat. The last time I went, I was heading to La Tomatina in Brunol back in 2013. As I typed that I don’t even remember if that’s true. No, it is. Anywho, this time around I wanted to see inside the Sagrada Familia and other Gaudi works because last time I didn’t […]

I stayed outside of the center at Hyatt Place Krakow. It was a bit of a jaunt into the center, but I needed a name-branded hotel after my spicay, distrusting stay in the Gran Canaria. There was a tram stop right out front of the hotel, but most trams only accept coins in their machines-

When leaving the Warsaw airport, if you want to catch the bus into town, don’t follow the ‘coach’ signs- they lead you to the long distances buses. When I went through the doors at arrivals, there wasn’t clear signage- but I always say that when I don’t pay attention and put 2% effort into looking

Delightful. I went to Munich with a couple of beauties, who happen to both speak German- one of which was a frequent flyer

Italy really puts the rail in Eurail. so that’s why I decided to take a ferry from Durres, Albania to Bari, Italy- so I could use my train pass. From Bari, I headed north to Rimini. How did I end up in the relaxed seaside town of Rimini for 4 nights? Bit of background info,

arriving in Bari from Durres, Albania I thought Bari would be a bit icky because it has a massive ferry port situation going on, but it still has a little somethin, somethin. On the web (do people still say that?)– I’ll answer for you, no– you’ll see there is a street (Arco Basso) where adorable
