Since I started working at Slovenia’s largest airport, I’ve been traveling to Frankfurt – Germany’s financial capital – several times a year on business. Business trips usually mean a packed schedule full of meetings and catching up with my wonderful German colleagues. This is why I never really had the chance to explore the city […]

9-day Oman road trip itinerary (with a 3-year-old)
Oman, a lesser-known jewel on the Arabian coast, is a truly unique and diverse destination.

Perfect Italian summer vacation: A week of Ischia and Napoli

Our 6 favourite activities in Vienna for a toddler
When researching the destination, I always try to mix some popular sites to see and add some places I think my 2-year-old daughter Gaja will like. Especially with the museums, I do not always get it right, as it is hard to predict where they have enough activities for the little ones. Or let’s be […]
(Christmas) trip to Helsinki & Tallinn
Last December we chose to go North for our little family vacation before the end of the year. And we were not disappointed. We visited the Finnish capital Helsinki and the Estonian capital Tallinn. Two very different cities, both amazing Christmas destinations, with no crowds, great sightseeing options, picturesque Christmas markets, and very family-friendly. We […]

And we got exactly that. We enjoyed our time on the ship and the great food with a variety of choices. Especially the evening 3-course […]
Mini guide to Porto for foodies
Although our trip to Porto was mainly staying in our apartment because my daughter Gaja got sick, we still had the opportunity to do one of my favourite things while travelling: get to know the local cuisine. We had the pleasure to eat some delicious typical Portuguese food and some restaurants will forever stay in […]
10 days in Ireland: the perfect road trip itinerary
All shades of green really come alive in Ireland. And there is something calming and magical about it, especially when the sun comes out and plays with the shades. Of course, having all the green sites usually means also having all the rain, sometimes also fog and all shades of grey. But if you come […]

This is Lanzarote – the northernmost and easternmost island of the Spanish Canary Islands. It really is an impressive place and I kept thinking what a beautiful island this is all the time we were […]

La dolce vita in Trento and Lake Garda
Colourful city, beautiful green lake, aperitivo, pasta and gelato – perfect combination for amazing holidays in Italy. This past summer we found la dolce vita when we spent a week in Trento and around Lake Garda. I love holidays where I can combine exploring a city and then relax at the beach. Trento is great […]
