A month at the heart of the European Union: Brussels

A month at the heart of the European Union: Brussels

Reading time : 6 min. On March 25, we left Rotterdam for Brussels via a famous green bus company. It only took two hours and a half and is drastically cheaper than the train. Upon our arrival, it’s raining.Then, the airbnb is a pain, but I’ll certainly talk about that in a future article. This one was in the Saint-Gilles district, near the Gare du Midi. Well, it depends on the street, but at first glance, it wasn’t necessarily what we…

The long-awaited month in Rotterdam : the Eldorado?

The long-awaited month in Rotterdam : the Eldorado?

Reading time : 6 min. On February 25, we left Hanover for Rotterdam, the second largest city in the Netherlands. From Estonia, the Netherlands seemed like some kind of Eldorado to us, and we couldn’t wait to visit the country. So we took the train – 2023 is definitely greener than 2022, and that’s for the best! At first glance, the city combines New York-style skyscrapers with London-style red-brick houses, and offers a great deal of diversity in every respect!…

A month in Hannover, Germany, a village with half a million inhabitants.

A month in Hannover, Germany, a village with half a million inhabitants.

Reading time : 5 min Shocking headlines, incredible photos and high quality puns are back after almost two months without publishing, I know, you missed me.  On January 29th (2023 yes yes), we took the train to Hannover. The trip took eight hours, and it was actually really nice. I was worried about the length of the trip, I thought it would be really long, and then finally not at all. It must be said that the German trains are…

January in Vienna, Austria, capital of luxury?

January in Vienna, Austria, capital of luxury?

Reading time : 7 min. On the first of January, we set sail for Vienna, the capital of Austria. I had heard a lot of good things about this city before I set foot there, including the beautiful overall architecture and the colourful cathedral. And the Viennese chocolates, needless to say.  In terms of architecture, there’s nothing to complain about! It is grandiose. But one thing I hadn’t anticipated in Vienna was the display of wealth. I hadn’t thought of the…

Three weeks in Krakow, Poland, a largely underrated city.

Three weeks in Krakow, Poland, a largely underrated city.

Reading time : 5 min I won’t lie, at first I was reluctant to go to Poland. I didn’t have a very good image of the country. Firstly for political reasons, but also because I had met someone who had lived there in the past and had given me an unflattering description. Well, I think we chose the right city, because if we had spent those three weeks in Warsaw I might have had a different opinion. On the 28th…

Disillusion in Catania, Etna saves the month

Disillusion in Catania, Etna saves the month

Reading time : 8 min The arrival Our first two hours in Sicily set the tone for the rest of November 2022. From the moment we arrived at the airport, there was a lack of direction and organisation. After finding the bus stop, we look for where to buy the tickets, since a sign indicates that you have to buy your ticket BEFORE getting on the bus. So be it. We look around, but nothing. We went back to the…

The 9 best things to do in Budapest

The 9 best things to do in Budapest

We were lucky enough to spend a month in Budapest in October 2022, (this article summarises our adventures) and I would now like to share the things you don’t want to miss in the Hungarian capital 🙂  It is an increasingly popular travel destination, and for good reasons! In addition to the many things to see, it is possible to find relatively affordable flights and accommodation.  First of all, it is important to know that the Danube river divides the…

A month in Budapest : a pleasant surprise

A month in Budapest : a pleasant surprise

Reading time : 5 min This is it. October 1, 2022 has finally arrived and we are ready to leave. I take the plane from Orly and arrive in the night in the Hungarian capital.  Really a good surprise? In the taxi on the way to the airbnb, I ask the driver if he knows the area he’s dropping me off in. At first, he simply says “yes”. I then ask him if he speaks English, to which he says…

The day we decided to travel in Europe.

The day we decided to travel in Europe.

Reading time : 2 min. Well, actually, I don’t remember the particular day when we had this idea. It seems to me that it came gradually. We were living in the Estonian capital, Tallinn, and let’s face it, we got tired of it. Tired of the cold and terribly long winters, of the lack of animation in the city and especially of social life. In short, we were fed up, and needed some change. The original idea The initial idea…
