If you’re going to San Francisco, you hope for great weather. Unfortunately, for me it wasn’t, even the Golden Gate Bridge – the icon of SanFrancisco – looks a bit sad in the pouring rain… I was on a city trip in San Francisco for only four days in March 2011 and did so many… More Hotspots San Francisco
A holiday by car to Italy from the Netherlands is very easy and popular. Thousands of Dutch people do this every year, with the peak in the summer holidays.

Colourful Medellín, with its rough past, has positively surprised us.

This summer I have spent more time than usual in the south of The Netherlands. A city I did not know very well but was on my “to visit-list” for a long time was beautiful, exuberant Breda in the province Brabant. The city centre of Breda is elected The Best City Centre of The Netherlands”… More Breda: the Best City Centre of The Netherlands
Curaçao is the perfect first trip with a baby if you’re asking me. Our baby was 14 weeks old in January 2022 and I was in desperate need of sun before my maternity leave would be over. We wanted a destination where you don’t have to do a thing, with possibilities to do something in… More Dushi Curacao (with a baby)

The central-western part of Colombia is stunning! You’ll find stretched coffee plantations, huge palm trees and cowboys riding their horses all around you. You can’t miss this area of Colombia when you’re doing a roundtrip in the country. For us, the best surprise of this part of our trip was definitely the village Jardín. I’ll… More Coffee, Cocora & Cowboys – Round trip Colombia (II)
