Party Boat in Phuket & the Wedding

Party Boat in Phuket & the Wedding

My life in Phuket is usually pretty simple and casual, and my wardrobe certainly reflects it. I alternate between basic shorts and tops and easy beach dresses. Therefore, there is usually no need for heels or pretty dresses here in Nai Harn. Except, of course, when you are invited…

My private charter boat trip in Phuket

My private charter boat trip in Phuket

Happy New Year!! Here I am, back in Phuket and coming full circle to where I started 2021 exactly one year ago. It has certainly been a year filled with adventures and new discoveries. But what better way to finish it than with a private charter boat trip to Coral Beach? Besides…

Nai Harn Beach Phuket- it’s nice to be back!

Hello from Thailand! Just over 6 months ago I left Nai Harn Beach in Phuket just as Thailand started to shut down. Now, I am back here, just in time for its re-openening. And I must say, it is nice to be back. The overall…

Strasbourg vs Colmar – which is prettier?

Strasbourg vs Colmar! Which is prettier.. ? Is there even a winner? Lately, I’ve been spending some time in Alsace, a historic region in northeastern France, also known as the Grand Est. Nestled along the Rhine River plain, it borders Germany and Switzerland and has a long history of shifting…

With August upon us, we are already entering the final part of summer. And with plenty of sunny days in sight, I am planning lots of cycling and hiking trips around the Schwarzwald. Even with all my activities, I still haven’t explored everything this beautiful area has to offer. Not…

24 hours in four countries – my road trip in Poland, Czech Republic, Austria, Germany

I have done quite a few long road trips throughout my years of travelling, and I always like to choose routes with interesting stops along the way. Where could I go this time? After all, there isn’t always a rush to reach the final destination. Thankfully, this journey was much…
