Holiday: Thailand
A month being back home and I’m already on the road again. My dad and I ran off to Thailand to explore the Land of Smiles. He went with his dad when he was a couple years older than I am, so, in a way, …

Weekend Getaway: Oktoberfest in Munich!
My dad came to visit! He had been planning this trip since February and it was finally here! I met up with him in Amsterdam on Friday evening, we jumped on a flight to Munich and were settled into our hotel by 23.00! Which meant …
Summer Holiday: Venice, Italy
The last leg of my summer holiday was spent frolicking around the (supposedly) most romantic city: Venice. With the same friend I was with in San Marino, we traveled to Venice and settled into our hotel. The next day we spent the whole day wandering …
Summer Holiday: San Marino
It was 07.00 and I was finally able to get off the ferry I was trapped on for 12hours. I hardly slept and when I did it was an awful, sitting-in-an-airplane-chair kind of sleep. I was beyond ready to get off that boat. (Side note: …
Summer Holiday: Corfu, Greece
August 11th and my holiday was beginning! I had a 05.30 flight Friday morning and a desire to take the train the night before so I wouldn’t 1) miss my flight (it’s happened) and 2) pay a buttload in parking at Schiphol. Hence, why my …

A Day in Ghent, Belgium
Next up on our mother daughter trip: Ghent. It’s a really cute city that’s much more modern than Bruges is: there was vast shopping options, Starbucks was in the center, there were tons of tourists wandering around. There was even a general strike while we were …
Weekend Getaway: Utrecht
I LOVE UTRECHT. Like really. It’s a lot like Amsterdam but it’s also completely different. Have you been to Amsterdam? It’s wonderful. It’s an amazing European capitol. It’s vibrant and fun and busy and there’s so much to see. But it isn’t fully Dutch. It’s …
A Day in Bruges, Belgium
The (very late) beginning of spring brought sunshine, warmth, blossoming flowers and my mom! After picking her up at the airport, we started our drive to Belgium. The plan was to make it to our AirBnB in between Brugges and Ghent before too late so …
My Mom Came to Visit!
Four months in and I wasn’t as homesick I was thought I would be, but I did miss my family terribly. Which is why I was so excited for my mom to come visit at the end of April! We had a relaxed itinerary: she …
