There are a lot of things to do in the Czech capital to keep you busy for one week and still want to return. This being said, Czechia has many more wonders. You’ll regret not taking your […]

- Zamek Czocha
We grew up listening to stories of prices and princesses living in remote castles, with secret passages and giant dancehalls. No wonder a night in a castle is on many bucket lists. At Zamek Czocha, a castle turned into a hotel, we had the opportunity to experiment and take a look into a long-gone way […]

- Revolut
On the 30th of September 2018, a little (more) skeptical, I decided to install Revolut. I didn’t know much about it at that point. Mr. M. advised me not to do it, but I took the risk anyway and transferred the 10 EURO needed in order to confirm the account. I had made my homework […]

- Kosice
- Slovakia
Slovakia doesn’t get a lot of tourists. Besides, the ones that do visit the country head straight to Bratislava, most of the times on a day-trip from Vienna, due to its proximity. All those people have no idea as to what they lose. The East of Slovakia has a lot to offer, starting with Kosice, […]

- Slovakia
Bratislava, the Slovakian capital, is often understated and overlooked in favor of Budapest, Vienna, Krakow or Prague. For me, the fact that there are fewer tourists only adds to its charm, authenticity and beauty. There is no need for much planning before visiting Bratislava. Just figure out how to get there and where to stay. […]

For a long while now I wanted to see what it was like to sleep on a boat. Recently my wish came true and we slept for a night on Dunajský Pivovar Botel. If you have the same curiosity, but a cruise is not on your list right now, you can also take into consideration […]

Read MoreEzerets, Shabla and Tyulenovo – Weekend in Bulgaria
I know that not many foreigners get to the Bulgarian seaside and even less to the northern side, but in case you are in Bulgaria during the summer, there are some places close-by ready to be discovered. Although I wouldn’t choose these beaches instead of the ones in Thailand, Cuba or even Greece or Croatia, […]
Read MorePunkva cave – an underground boat trip
I like caves. They are not only natural wonders, whole different ecosystems with their ever-changing stalagmites, stalactites, spaghettis and collonades, and fairy-tale formations. Every time I visit a cave, I expect Snow-White and the 7 dwarfs to appear from nowhere. Visiting a cave also makes me think about how strong and consistent nature is. I […]

I’ve watched Segway tours go by before, but never really thought about enrolling in one. They looked big, hard to maneuver and even a little dangerous for somebody a little too clumsy, but slowly a desire to try one developed. People hopping on them and cruising around looked happy and I wanted to try new […]
