We thought we are done with trips and travelling for 2018, but then Dina figured out that we can use August bank holiday weekend for one last go. We were thinking of going to the south of Ireland, but we ended up going to Edinburgh, Scotland. Our flight was scheduled for 6.30 PM, and even…

Hot day in cute Vaduz, Liechtenstein, surrounded by gorgeous Alps
I worked for a big tour operator, in which the general idea was to take guests through minimum three countries, so they can compare differences in culture, architecture and experience different feelings on the trip they are a part of. I like that idea so much, that I’m kind a trying to force Dina to…
Valletta – Malta’s capital where one visit is not enough
Three years back Dina wanted to go to China, and we ended up in Japan. Then last summer we planned to see Portugal and a bit of Spain, but due to circumstances we ended up in Italy and Switzerland. This time is no different. We actually planned to go to Iceland, but after a thorough…
Summer getaway in the Italian hills. Ever heard of San Giorgio di Perlena and Breganze?
Our original plan to spend the summer vacations in Portugal had to be changed as soon as our dear friends invited us to their wedding in Italy. We did try to to find an affordable way to return to Dublin, or fly from Venice to Portugal, but it seemed that at that time of the…
Who sent me to the beautiful and laid-back Oslo?
Everyone asked us – Why Oslo? Well, truth be told – air-plane tickets were cheap. 🙂 Very next morning as we returned from Tenerife, Dina was heavily infected with a travel bug that resulted with a travel ideas spree. It started as a birthday surprise trip, but due to certain technicalities (my account used for…
Hiking Mount Guaza – Montaña de Guaza Tenerife
Our recent trip to Tenerife was not a new idea, as I was checking Mt Teide as soon as we returned from Japan and our hike to Mt Fuji. Back then, it was still just the two of us and things were slightly different. This time I did my best trying to organize everything to…
Throwback Thursday – Crossing Ski Jumps in Planica off my bucket list
It’s been a couple of years now since I crossed one of the things off my bucket list. Actually, I’ve crossed it two times from three attempts. Because of that, I can tell you that seeing ski jumps in Planica in Slovenia at least once is really a thing you should add to your bucket…
Nagasaki 70 years after the Atomic Blast
Hiroshima was still asleep when we left the hotel early in the morning on our way to Nagasaki. It was interesting seeing such a big and busy city empty. Besides two of us dragging our luggage behind our back we saw only two ladies returning home from last night’s parties. They seemed a bit under…
Perseid Meteor Shower 2016 from South Dublin and Enniskerry
You might have heard that 2016 Perseid Meteor Shower was supposed to be special and very rich with visible meteors. Knowing that I decided to go out and make a couple of great photos. Even though clouds didn’t look too friendly I persisted and drove to the top of Ticknock Hill. In pitch dark, I…
The hot springs “Hells” of Beppu in Japan are the “coolest” hot springs in the world!
During our planning phase, when we (mostly Dina) were searching for things to see in Japan we found a photo of a dark orange bubbly hot spring somewhere in Japan that is called “Hells of Beppu”. As soon as I saw the photo I asked if we can fit it somehow into our schedule without…
Taking a cooking class while traveling Japan wasn’t a bad idea at all
Before our trip to Japan we tried to find a cooking school with Japanese or other Asian specialities. We even booked one potential course, but it never happened. So, when we had all set for Japan, it was just a matter of place where we’ll attend a cooking school. Dina found Cooking Sun somewhere on-line,…
16 Reasons You Should ALWAYS Ask For The Window Seat :)
In the past three days my social network feeds served me several similar articles with the above title. The only difference was the leading number, which changed from ten to twenty seven. I forgot to count all my flights so far, but I convinced Dina that it’s cool to know the exact number, so at…
