Ethiopian adventures: the Erta Ale volcano tour
Tour with ETT – Ethio Travel and Tours We were lucky to find a tour to the Danakil depression already during our stay in Lalibela. It also included a free transfer to Mekele (around 10 hours with a minivan with several photo-stops and a lunch pause). The tour agency we booked it with is called [...]
Ethiopian adventures: the Rock-Hewn Churches of Lalibela
Lalibela: to see it all in three hours Only in the bus to Lalibela, we took the decision to take a tour to the Danakil depression which would last at least three days. Therefore, in Lalibela we had left… only half a day. Considering that the main sight, the rock-hewn churches, are open from 8 am to 6 [...]
Ethiopian adventures: from Addis Abeba to Dessie
We planned to spend seven full days in Ethiopia and were, how should I put it more mildly, very ambitious. We started in Addis Abeba and of all places of attraction we visited Lalibela (it took us two days to reach it), Erta Ale volcano and Danakil depression (on a three-day tour). After the tour we flew back to [...]
Mauritius activities, sightseeing and food
Now, when the most demanding component of our Mauritius trip (beaches) is covered here Mauritius best beaches, I can tell you more about the island and its other places and things of interest. Actually, it is quite unusual for us to stay at the same hotel during the whole duration of a trip. However, Mauritius has simply [...]
Visit Mauritius best beaches

Even the Mauritius best beaches in front of the luxurious hotels are open for eventual visitor from outside but under consideration of one condition – you are not allowed to trespass the hotel private territory, which starts where the beach [...]

Poland: a weekend trip to Wrocław
In the last eight months, I’ve been to Wrocław twice: in August, when the city was green and full of tourists, and last weekend, on the first real day of spring. This is a combined post from both trips as the places we’ve visited and photos we’ve taken supplement each other very well. For those who live in Berlin, [...]
Fairytale Apulia: Ostuni and Matera
In these three days, we have been to Alberobello, Ostuni, Matera and Bari. We chose Alberobello as our base (read here more about this enchanting city) and were able to reach all these cities by car within one hour. The roads in Apulia are anything else but crowded. In general, driving there was pleasant, however the streets [...]
Fairytale Apulia: Trulli of Alberobello
I keep a list of the places I would like to visit one day. Many of them are charming little villages spread all around Europe which you can visit if you have a free (in our case, long) weekend. One of these places since a couple of years was Alberobello. You can imagine how happy I was when [...]
