This summer I was supposed to go to Spain but restrictions from Czechia where I’m residing right now makes it a bit complicated due to the sudden surge of the number of COVID cases. It’s quite sad since I was really looking forward to it but it’s better to be on the safer side of […]
This photo was taken in the Maps Hall of the Vatican Museum, during our long and winding road to the Sistine Chapel which was a real struggle. I, and a couple of friends, knew this the hard way. We thought booking tickets in advance will cut our journey through the labyrinth but no. I have […]
It was my first time in Spain and I was with three Czech friends on a road trip. I let the type A friend plan everything because this is the YOLO point in my life, and luckily he made the right decision. Or maybe because the destination was too beautiful to care about the rough […]
For the last four years, it’s been my yearly tradition to take a peek at the cherry blossom blooms of Parc de Sceaux close to Paris. The sprawling park with a chateaux main piece and a man-made lake is a springtime delight in itself but just one week in April, it hosts the densest pink […]
Having lived in Paris and having been brainwashed by the North that it’s better than the South, I haven’t really thought of a reason to visit Marseille. I imagined it to be like a normal French city just closer to the sea. I was wrong. If anything, this more-Tuscan-than-French cathedral is already an illustration of […]
I know this would have been more interesting if I’d talk about skiing but we weren’t ski-ready when we went here and we were only on a day trip from Geneva. But I must say, I didn’t know I would say this about France, but next to Geneva, this is quite a budget destination. And […]

It’s the time of the year once again, when the spicy aroma of mulled wine and the vanilla-hinted scent of fluffy waffles dominate the air, at least in the upper hemisphere. It’s time therefore for the winter series! Let’s start this cold season featurettes with a take on the Frederiksborg Castle in Copenhagen. I was […]
Don’t get me wrong, Venice is beautiful in person. In fact, at first, it was not really on my bucket list because I thought it would be so touristic and hence, overrated just judging from its ubiquity in social media. And although normally I find myself quite right with my gutfeel, I couldn’t say the […]
The rocky coast of Northern Spain is always a treat for the mind, the body, the senses. Long sandy coasts locked by plateaus of expansive greenery and cliffs withered by the beating of the crashing Atlantic waves, these picturesque sceneries await any traveller who would find himself lost in this less known part of Europe.
