“Overall, the Four Seasons Yacht I is a beautiful vessel, staffed by gracious, friendly, and genuinely attentive crew members. Throughout the voyage, we met many delightful couples, and there was a wonderful sense of camaraderie among the guests. We left with new friendships and meaningful…
I am back in Hamburg. It has been a while since I was here last, and once again Hamburg didn’t disappoint. What a lovely time I had! Staying at Fairmont Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten Hamburg made my visit even more special. It was elegant, comfortable and the perfect…
The last week has certainly been one that many of us in Europe will remember. The heatwave was intense, and with temperatures reaching 39°C+, it’s safe to say we were all looking for a cool escape. I was certainly in need of an air-conditioned bedroom, so…
I first visited Dubrovnik eight years ago while driving through Eastern Europe on a two-month road trip. Returning this year made me realise just how much my travel style has changed. Instead of travelling by car, this time it was a quick flight from Baden-Baden…

I was in my final days in the Caribbean, finishing my trip in Barbados, exactly where it had begun. In luxury. Starting with dinner at Sandy Lane and ending with a stay at Cobblers Cove, it was simply incredible. In fact, the entire two weeks…
Hello from New York City! This is certainly the most exciting trip I have done for a long time. New York has been on my list to visit for many years and after two canceled trips, I am finally here. I was a little bit…
I can hardly believe I’m writing this from the Maldives! I never imagined I’d make it here, but when my friend spontaneously suggested booking a flight (who knew it’s only a 4.5-hour trip from Bangkok?), I couldn’t resist. Of course, if you’re going to experience…
Where Antalya is my favourite coastal city of Turkey, Kaş is my favourite seaside city. Or should I say town? As it is much smaller than Antalya. I have seen quite a bit of Turkey by now, and Kaş and Kalkan are definitely the prettiest…
