Early morning flight for 25 EUR but it was totally worth it. 🙂 We woke up at 3:30 and landed to Naples just before 9:00. Upon our arrival we have soon noticed the chaotic city and how nobody respects the traffic lights. However, it took us one day to adjust. Our accommodation was in the city center in some old 19th century palace. However, there … Continue reading Naples, Italy
That big and busy airport in Germany that is spottable even from 12,000 metres above! Brilliant and amazing. However, my first time arriving there was by train and the second time I was flying. I took the local newspapers like a local and started to renew my German. Frankfurt am Main is the 5th biggest city in Germany after Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, and Cologne. On the River Main (a tributary of the Rhine), … Continue reading Frankfurt am Main, Deutschland
Short one day trip from Lisbon to Porto! Not much time plus the rain, but oh boy, we enjoyed! 🙂 We rented a car and cross the country driving for almost 4 hours. We arrived to the hill where from you can beautifully sea the river Douro that flows into the Atlantic ocean. With its historical core which was proclaimed a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1996 it is medieval and charming city and … Continue reading Porto, Portugal
A weekend trip to northern France. 🙂 The region is called Pas de Calais. It has been named due to its famous Saint Audomar who brought Christianity to the area. The first stop was the main square where the Christmas market was held. We decided to have a glass of champagne (which was surprisingly a bit sour) and stroll down the food market to buy … Continue reading Saint Omer and Nazi bunker visit, France
From Moldova I took low cost company TAROM and landed to Bucharest. And I was surprised. 🙂 My friend insisted to order an Uber for me as the local taxi drivers are fatal serial killers trying to scam the tourists. So I decided to accept the advice. As my Uber driver and I were approaching the city, I have to say I did not expect broad … Continue reading Bucharest, Romania
I arrived early in the morning to Moldova, with no special expectations. I knew it is the poorest country in Europe and that the visit to the capital of Chisinau can be done in one day. Landing with Air Moldova looked like this: Btw, apparently in Air Moldova you are not allowed to take more than one glass of wine. How sad, especially as the country … Continue reading Chisinau, Moldavia
Monaco, officially the Principality of Monaco, is a micro-state in Western Europe. Actually, this is the second smallest independent state in the world (after the Vatican) and is entirely urban. Monaco is surrounded by France on three sides and the remaining part of the country is bordered by the Mediterranean Sea. I arrived from the train station which I noticed was entirely in marble. Monaco is a principality governed under a … Continue reading Monte Carlo, Monaco 🏰
After Marseille, the next stop was St Tropez. Saint Tropez I was sitting in the train and watching the beautiful landscape of the French Riviera: the blue sea below me and red rocks above the other side. The first arrival was actually the city of Hyeres where we changed to bus connection towards Saint Tropez. I found Saint Tropez amazing cute medieval city on the … Continue reading Côte d’Azur: Cannes, Nice and St Tropez
Why? Because I was daydreaming about this city in the south. Plus I have never been to south of France, furthermore, it is the second largest French city and the capital of the Bouches-du-Rhône department and Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur. You know Provence, no? The lavanda fields etc. Only I haven’t to the countryside. Just saw few lavanda magnets in the market in Marseille at the Old Port. Vieux-Port de Marseille or … Continue reading Marseille, France
The largest city of all three Baltic states: Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. 🙂 We kinda fell in love with it as we were on our small Baltic tour from Vilnius. 🙂 The entire region is flat, just flat and the 4 hours bus ride was kinda dull but excited since we never visited these countries before. So let’s start with the entrance to the city over the … Continue reading Riga, Latvia
