This part of my blog is focused on sharing all my past travels. I visited all described places and most of the photos were taken by me personally (if otherwise it is stated under the post). All information published comes from my travel experience, however, do not expect similar to TripAdvisor of Lonely Planet guide. Rather, my purpose was different. I wanted to draw your attention to the attitude towards travelling, to the way the travel is organized, and above all, how to make your travel inspiring and breathtaking experience. I would be most happy if my travel blog encouraged you to travel yourself.

So, enjoy reading all published posts and let me know whether you need more information about particular destinations.

The Best Canadian Province is…?

The Best Canadian Province is…?
…Nova Scotia! If you are Canadian you might have totally different opinion about it. If you have visited Canada this might be your case as well. For me driving through couple of the Canadian provinces was like a fairytale. Even though Nova Scotia has so many to offer to all tourists that I had no doubt about this choice. Why Nova Scotia? I think this is mainly due to its particularity, interesting history, and absolutely ... Read more

How To Learn Swedish? My Expriment
If you are familiar with the origins of this blog and my plans for next couple of months discussed under ‘Travel Tips‘ section, or explicitly in one of the first posts ‘Getting Ready‘ you know about my idea to learn another language. As I already know English and Italian, had been studying Chinese and Japanese, I thought it shouldn’t be THAT difficult. The language I picked up might surprised you and I ... Read more

Can’t keep up? 4 Ways To Simplify Travel Plans

Can’t keep up? 4 Ways To Simplify Travel Plans
You are RIGHT! I have started organizing a new trip: this May I will go to the Aran Island. There are many reasons why I picked up this particular location, one of which is the journey of Nicolas Bouvier to this island in the early 80s. I am thrilled to visit- for the first time- the place where Nicolas Bouvier was writing one of his books titled: Journal d’Aran et d’autres lieux. As I decided to go there few months ago ...

Are The German Autobahns Best in Europe?

Are The German Autobahns Best in Europe?
The German system of highways is one of the best thing this country has to offer to the tourists. Seriously! Travelling across Germany by car is really pleasant. The highways are excellent in terms of its density, interchanges and overhead direction signs, but also in terms of good driving conditions in the winter season. What really drives me crazy is the growing number of traffic jams, but this is true for all well developed ... Read more

Escape from Milano to Lago di Como

Escape from Milano to Lago di Como
Lago di Como is one of the dream destinations. The lake has been filmed many times and because of its beauty it fascinates tourists. Como Lake and three other big lakes in northern Italy: Maggiore, Garda and d’Iseo, are unique places of stunning views and architectural delight. Lago di Como has a weird shape of upside-down letter Y and is surrounded by hills. On its northern shore you may actually see very high peaks of the ... Read more

Hanging around like a drifter in Stockholm

Hanging around like a drifter in Stockholm
I visit Stockholm every year. Usually, at the beginning of September or in late August. It’s not that this is my favorite holiday destination but this city is friendly enough to make a short stop. When I go to Stockholm the weather is usually surprisingly nice: sunny and warm. Only once I was almost washed off by the heavy rain. So if you think about visiting this city check the weather forecast and be prepare for every ... Read more

One of the best museums I have ever been to

One of the best museums I have ever been to
It is justified to visit Washington DC for its museums. One of them- National Postal Museum- became one of my favorite. This museum was recommended by one of my American friends and, as always, this is an excellent way to know fascinating places. I don’t think I would go there if it hadn’t been recommended. Whenever it’s possible ask the locals. The museum is rather small which is a great advantage.  In couple of ... Read more

6 Best Italian Dishes

6 Best Italian Dishes
Probably you are right when thinking this list should be titled ‘Best Food of Emilia-Romagna’, however, I added two delicious foods popular outside the region and I thought the title ‘Best Italian Dishes’ is justified this way. Fair enough. I spent years in Italy eating the best food in the world. Months after months I have been discovering nuances, particularities and exceptions of the Italian taste. It ... Read more

Agriturismo: the Italian way of doing things

Agriturismo: the Italian way of doing things
My recent stay in Italy was full of marvels. I booked a room in so called agriturismo, just as I did many times before. What I mostly appreciate in such accommodation is high quality local food and friendly owners who share their passion with you. I consider myself lucky to know Italian and to be honest it is very helpful while travelling around Italy. Speaking Italian is useful but not necessary while visiting large cities it is ... Read more
