I hope you’ve enjoyed Part 1 of my Amalfi Coast travel diary about Amalfi, Ravello and Positano. Part 2 focusses on a place you definitely need to know about if you’re planning a trip to the Amalfi Coast: Hotel Santa Caterina.

Amalfi Coast Travel Diary – Part 1
I had been dreaming of a holiday on the Amalfi Coast for a while and a week ago it finally happened. I had read a lot about Amalfi, Positano and the area and I had seen so many beautiful photos that I slightly worried that reality would not be able to live up to my … Read More
Weekend getaway: Weissenhaus
With the current political affairs it’s understandable if sometimes all you want to do is stay in bed and hide from the world. Of course that’s not an option – but what actually helps is a little weekend getaway, to take a break from the daily grind, get some rest and restore your energy. I recently … Read More
Mallorca Travel Diary – Ca’s Xorc

Mallorca Travel Diary – Deià

Now I’m jumping ahead a bit but I cannot wait to share this beautiful spot with you.

Since we … Read More
Costa Rica Travel Diary – Part 2: Monteverde
From Manuel Antonio National Park we drove North to Monteverde. If you plan to drive there, make sure your car has four-wheel-drive and drives well on rocky grounds. The gravel road up to Monteverde wound itself through the mountains for a long time until we finally reached the village of Santa Elena. While driving we could already see … Read More
Costa Rica Travel Diary – Part 1: Manuel Antonio
It’s become kind of a tradition for my boyfriend and me to travel for two or three weeks in spring. And while we usually have a plan in mind early on, this year, for the first time in several years, we weren’t sure where we wanted to go. Since we both loved Tulúm so much, we were thinking … Read More
