Weekend getaway in Andalusia: Cordoba
We anticipated that parking situation in Cordoba will be as tense as in Malaga or Granade, therefore we googled the free parking before we drove to this city. We found free parking in the area of Torre De Calahorra. You have to be aware of the self-proclaimed “valets”, who wave you in the free slot and “help” you to [...]
Weekend getaway in Andalusia: Granada
Alhambra In Arabic, “Alhambra” means “Red Castle”. In the 9th century, Alhambra used to be a military fortress as it is located on a strategic point, with a superior view over the whole city and at the meadows. In the 13th century, the royal residence was established here; Alhambra lasted in that status until [...]
Weekend getaway in Andalusia: Malaga
For those who searches for a perfect weekend getaway, I have another suggestion! Have you ever considered Malaga as destination point? If not, you should! Because of direct flights, warm climate, delicious fish and seafood… and two other gorgeous cities 1,5-hour drive away, Granada and Cordoba. Malaga Catedral de la Encarnación de Málaga Translated from Spanish, [...]
Three weeks in Columbia: our route
Our route in Columbia Combined with Panama (you can read more about it here and here), Colombia was our big trip of the year 2018, which spread into the beginning of 2019. We spent a bit more than three weeks (23 days) in this beautifully diverse South-American country. For those who want to go to Colombia and have [...]
Tunisia during off-season: El Jem
El Jem On our last day in Tunisia we decided to go to El Jem. Organizing a trip was not as difficult: you can pay 120 Dinar to a taxi driver who will bring you there and back or go to the bus station and ask there for the options. At the bus station, we agreed on the [...]
Tunisia during off-season: Dougga, Tunis, Monastir
Dougga UNESCO believes that Dougga represents "the best-preserved Roman small town in North Africa". Indeed, this archaeological site is located two-hour drive from the major cities and therefore was protected from the intrusion of the modern urbanization. Dougga’s impressive size, its well-preserved monuments and its deep Berber, Punic, ancient Roman and Byzantine history make it exceptional. [...]
Выйти замуж в Германии: бюрократическая сторона
В 2018 году, мой молодой человек и я поженились в Берлине. Так как у меня Российское гражданство, мне нужно было подготовить n-ное количество документов, переведенных на немецкий для подачи в загс и на получение разрешения на заключение брака. Честно говоря, это не самый простой и быстрый процесс, отчасти потому что в интернете я не нашла полного и подробного описания [...]
Tunisia during off-season: Sidi Bou Said and Carthage
Sidi Bou Said From the place we stayed in La Marsa, Tunisia, we walked to Sidi Bou Said. The visit to this dreamy white-blue city with a sea view filled my heart with joy. After being there, I don’t need to go to the famous Santorini anymore. You will not miss the main shopping street, Rue Habib Thameur. [...]
Tunisia during off-season: Djerba
We booked our Tunisian holidays in order to get rid of my „rest-vacation-days“ from the last year. The destination has been chosen according to the flight time (not longer than 4 hours from Berlin and from Paris as we were visiting a friend the weekend before the planned departure), ticket costs, temperatures higher than in Berlin and vague remarks [...]
