Best tour in Krakow – Get a buggy for a fun trip

I’ve visited Krakow many times before, and I always love coming back. Since I had already explored most of the major historical attractions, such as Schindler’s Factory Museum, the Ghetto Wall, and the historic sites in the Kazimierz district, I decided to try something different.…

Vienna – the most beautiful city in Europe

Hiking to the Montserrat Monastery – the perfect trail

Hiking to the Montserrat Monastery – the perfect trail

I had read about the Montserrat Monastery even before my trip to Andorra. However, I wasn’t sure I could be bothered stopping there. Until I saw the actual mountains while relaxing at Hotel Mon Sant Benet. They looked so dramatic, rising seemingly out of nowhere…
