Vacations on Rhodes
In July 2020 we spent one week on Rhodes. We stayed in a little village Pefkos, in the Stella Hotel. This was our first experience of a settled holiday (hotel, pool, restaurants, beach, all in one place) with a baby. To my surprise, this vacation was really relaxing. I even finished some books during our stay there, which is unusual, [...]
Living on a boat
When we arrived in Sainte-Anne, Martinique, we noticed many boats standing in the bay. Back then we idly wondered, if the beaches were so nice in Sainte-Anne (yes, they are) that so many boats came to visit them. Saine-Anne Bay On the next day, at 7 am on the beach (thanks, Mia, for daily early morning wakeup calls) we met [...]
Caravan travels: crawling baby
We are back from yet another campervan trip with our daughter. Mia turned 7 months two days before our journey began and we spent two weeks on the road in France. Travelling with a crawling baby is a fairly different experience than travelling with a rolling 4-months-old baby in the sleep regression (you can read about it here Link), so [...]
Caravan trip from Germany to Croatia
Going on a long trip during our parental leave, just the three of us, was not even brought to discussion: we knew that we would do it! We were playing with the thoughts of taking Route 66 through the USA or spending two months in Asia (Japan, mostly). Though the pandemic has significantly restricted our choices, we adapted [...]
Caravan travels with baby: our experience
We've just come back from our 1-month-trip with Mia with a travel trailer. While the memory is still fresh, I collected some tips for you if you have in mind to travel with your baby but are unsure if this is a good idea. Mindset - let's start from the main point: before you start planning your trip, [...]
Four gems of Slovenia
We have been on a trip through Austria, Croatia and Slovenia more than 2,5 days ago, but somehow I managed to write only one post about that trip: link. However, in my opinion, some places in Slovenia cannot be left out when you are planning your trip to that region; here are they: Ljubljana Ljubljana is the largest [...]
Ukraine: visiting Odessa
The pearl of the Black Sea Odessa, sometimes also called the "pearl of the Black Sea" and "Southern Palmyra" is a major tourism center, seaport and transport hub located on the northwestern shore of the Black Sea. Once, Odessa was a Greek, Tatar, Russian city. Now, with its a bit more than 1 million inhabitants, Odessa is the [...]
Exploring Moldova and Transdnistria
Why Moldova? In September 2019 we spent three or four days in Moldova followed by three days in Odessa, Ukraine. Why Moldova? We are big fans of the off-the-beaten-track destinations and Moldova is a relatively remote country in the middle of Europe very much neglected by the tourists. Besides, it has a growing wine-tourism industry and those who know [...]
Uzbekistan: a short summary for your trip
Our “babymoon” destination this autumn was Uzbekistan, rather an unexpected choice for expecting parents, but as we were dreaming of going to the Central Asia since quite a long time, we decided to turn our wishes into reality without further delay and had a wonderful trip for the two of us. Luckily, I tolerated the [...]
