What’s that one thing that you think of when saying Romania? Ok, most of you might say “nothing comes to mind”, some might say “Dracula, of course” and others would think about some not so flattering stuff for us Romanians. But keep on reading and I’ll help you link this Eastern European country to something that […]
Munich Christmas Market picture diary
In the past 6 years, life has brought me to Munich enough times for me to say that I got pretty familiar with the city. But somehow the first and last time I visited the Bavarian capital, it was in December and last year I decided to take one of my favorite route in the […]
Athens travel information – everything you need to know
This Summer somehow I found myself going back to Greece. And why shouldn’t we Romanians do that since Greece is so amazingly beautiful, so close to home and don’t get me started about the food? But after my first experience visiting Athens, the second time around I wanted to plan everything better, even if it would […]
Monemvasia, Peloponnese hidden gem
This Summer, one of my boyfriend’s Greek friends was so nice to invite us to spend some days with him and his beautiful family in his father’s hometown in the Peloponnese peninsula. As we accepted the invitation, little did I know that I was going to discover one of Grece’s best-kept secret – the Byzantine castle […]
My first cruise experience – West Mediterranean
It was a hot sunny day in Sri Lanka, towards the end of our 3 weeks trip on the tea island. Sitting by the pool, enjoying the tropical vibes, feeling refreshed by a ginger ale, my mind was working in the background dreaming about the next vacation. What else could I have been thinking of? One […]

Weekend getaway from Bucharest – Veliko Tarnovo and lavender fields in Bulgaria
Ok, ok, people who know me, know that I have a new obsession for lavender fields. I’ve searched for them last year while in Bulgaria on the Black Sea, but I couldn’t find any that would make me quite happy. So I decided to take the internet by storm and find the best place to […]
Love at first sight – Three days in Stockholm
I’ve always heard great things about Sweden’s capital, but somehow I was never drawn to actually explore it. Or maybe it was the price tag linked to the Northern part of Europe that somehow kept me away. Or the fact that I had visited Oslo some years ago and was not really impressed and found […]
My complete guide to Cinque Terre Italy – everything you want to know before visiting
