Mate, we're lost!

This Halloween I'm brining you a spooky slice of Croatian folklore. The newly opened museum in Zagreb is the perfect place for all you weirdos out there :D Don’t forget to check out the rules before you go, or you might end up as the next creepy exhibit!

Halloween is creeping up and I am diving into murder :D Discover the wonderful world of murderous plants that lurk in bushes and ditches everywhere around you... Do you feel confident enough to smell that flowers in the corner of your garden?

Inspired by May the 4th, I wrote a piece on Kilmainham gaol, a jail in Dublin that saw the last days of some of Irelands most famous rebels and freedom fighters. Check out the lastest post on my blog!

If your little one already arrived or you are expecting and can't wait to take the wee feet travelling, read on and get ready for that daunting first trip with your baby.

Yup, she has arrived! As you may have noticed in the latest Year in review post, last year we found out we were expecting a tiny human to join us on our adventures. She was born earlier this year which is why there have been no posts in over 3 months. And guess what? We finally did our first trip together! What was it like to travel with a baby? What did we pack? How did it affect our travel…

Another year behind us! No, I did not forget my year in review post, there are just big things happening in our life that put the post writing on the backburner. Read on to find out more!

City breaks can be more than just the touristy city centre. Check out what we found outside of Riga's Old Town during our long weekend getaway.

Riga made us realise how much we love city breaks. But it wasn’t just the cobbles streets of Old Town and its coffee shops. Riga, like Bucharest, has quite a lot more to offer if you venture a bit outside of the “tourist trap” city centre. We spent only 3 days in Riga so we had to choose carefully what we wanted to see – what is the point of spending about 40 minutes on public transport to just…

Some people love lounging on the beach for 2 weeks on their all-inclusive holidays, some love hiking... Riga reminded us we absolutely LOVE city breaks and exploring new destinstions!

Last month Ryanair had one of its many sales with cheap flights to different destinations (mostly around Europe). Usually, it is difficult to find cheap tickets for a weekend getaway where you don’t have to take extra days off (holidays are a commodity nowadays) but this time we were lucky. One of the destination on my “to go” list ever since I went to Tallinn was just that, a perfect city break…

Whiskey, beer and... books? If you think you got Ireland all figured out, think again.

**For the main post on my trip to Dublin, check here.** If you think Dublin is only whiskey and beer, you are so wrong! As a massive bibliophile, I already knew about the Trinity College and its library. However, I did not know that Dublin had quite a bit more to offer the travelling booklover. So what can a booklover do in Dublin? Keep on reading (see what I did there?) Book of Kells and…

Summer on the English coast – Dorset

Another August and another “I am too late to find a holiday”. We planned a few trips to do this year, but some situations arose and we decided against booking. The prices don’t help either. It is so expensive everywhere! It looks to be another staycation for my birthday… If you are in a similar pickle (low budget) and live in the UK, a quick trip to Dorset might be just what you need! The thing…

When was the last time you had a "leave me alone" holiday? This is our first ever trip that was booked with the main purpose of relaxing and unwinding and not running around like blue-arsed flies exploring everything we can.

This is our first ever trip that was booked with the main purpose of relaxing and unwinding and not running around like blue-arsed flies exploring everything we can. After all that happened since the beginning of lockdown, we decided we needed some time off. We only booked 4 nights not wanting to get bored. Who would’ve thought we’d enjoy it so much… The Canary Islands are the southernmost…

Full of traditional-looking pubs and restaurants cramped in narrow streets. Dublin has a lot to offer, but is also not a massive city. Three days in Dublin should be more than enough to see the interesting spots and chill about.

First, an apology for not writing anything in ages. With the weather getting warmer and sunnier, we are using the longer days to fix up our house. I have loads of ideas to write, I just haven’t had time to sit down, get into the zone and start typing. Second, don’t worry, this post is not named “going solo” because we are divorcing, it is just one of my work trips where I managed to squeeze in…

Do you dream of a summer holiday where you wake up in the morning and the first thing you do is get out of bed and go throw yourself in the crystal clear sea? Pelješac is one of those places on Earth where this dream is a reality.

Do you dream of a summer holiday where you wake up in the morning and the first thing you do is get out of bed and go throw yourself in the crystal clear sea? Pelješac is one of those places on Earth where this dream is a reality. And you won’t have to share it with thousands of other tourists. This post won’t be me writing about some amazing adventure we had here. Pelješac is very close to my…

With the UK dropping all the travel restrictions and many other countries opening their borders, you can expect the airport to be packed. And it is packed. Read on for how to navigate post-Covid air travel.

Happy Easter everyone! Photo from 2015. Yes, that is wine on the table… For breakfast 😀 We decided to spend this Easter holiday in Croatia with my family. I haven’t been home for Easter since 2015. I miss the big breakfast feast my mum makes. Also, our family dog is really old and his health is failing, we need to give him as many cuddles as possible. Last summer, Ryanair opened a direct line…

There we were, hurtling on the motorcycle among herds of gracious herbivores, roaming the green pastures of the Dorset coast...

Below them spread the Dorset countryside, shimmering in the heat of the day, the distance almost lost in a blue haze. Enid Blyton Have I mentioned I am lucky enough to have my birthday always fall very close to, if not on, the August bank holiday? I am sure I mentioned it… Every year we try to do a trip for my birthday. 2018 we went to the Netherlands 2019 we did a few day trips to Kent – we…
