I wipe away my sweat-stash as I type this. Those of you who nodded your head in understanding, bravo. To the lucky ones who have no idea what that is- it is the perspiration that forms delicately under your nose, which turns into an attractive moustache. Not that any moustache on a lady is attractive […]

This is way late. Two years and four months too late but for uni I went on an exchange to Cordoba, Spain and I saw some things. Malaga I flew into Malaga with my mother. What a delight she is travelling, like a toddler but with a more diverse vocabulary. Eats: Bar Mercado Atarazanas in

Malta, Malta, Malta. You sly fox, I almost didn’t see you there tucked down near northern Africa. You’re so small, I had sea views from the balcony of my hotel which was situated in the centre of the island. True story. When you first strut up to the capital Valletta you realise that the entire

I have been going to various yoga studios around where I live in order to take advantage of the trial week offers that they have. All the classes were taught in English. The majority of them I had to book online beforehand since some classes fill up quickly (depending on the size of the studio).

So you get to enjoy some crisp, cold North Sea air accompanied by flat farmland. There are five inhabited islands. I visited two

The first time I went to Prague, the city went straight to the top of my all-time favs list. I went back recently and it’s still magic, just throw in a few (hundred) more tourists and security control around the castle. I went up the Old Town Hall Tower this time, which has a wonderful view

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
