When Dubai Marina opened, it was the world’s first man-made marina of this size. Not in “one day Rome was built” as they say. This is also how the Marina was built in phases. In 2018, the entire marina complex was inhabited by around 55,000 people. The target for the Marina expansion, however, is […]

The Tróia peninsula near Setubal has become our regular destination when we want to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. For the beach of Tróia to do its best job (calming our distracting thoughts) it must be empty for us. And this only happens… in winter. We visit the Tróia peninsula quite […]

Carrasqueira is a village belonging to the municipality of Alcácer do Sal. This Carrasqueira Palafitic pier is located only 3 kilometers from the beaches of Comporta and about 15 kilometers from Tróia. The place is still used by fishermen but is also a “hidden jam” for photographers. A few hundred meters of the Carrasqueira […]

Qanat Quartier is Doha‘s recently built neighborhood in ‘The Pearl’. And if it weren’t for the view of Lusail (with distinctive magnet-like Katara towers), it would feel like we had moved from desert Qatar to Venice. We have to admit that the Qanat Quartier at “The Pearl” confused us a bit. A few minutes […]

“Porto Arabia” is one of the attractions at “The Pearl” that should not get lost on your list of places to visit in Doha. The very fact that the entire district of “The Pearl” is man-made (this peninsula did not exist on the map before), deserves attention and a visit. The entire “The Pearl Qatar” […]

This panoramic photo of Carvoeiro was taken during our winter trip to the Algarve. This town is a popular destination for summer vacations in Portugal. However, and this is happening more and more, it is also a place where retirees or remote workers settle in the winter. Admittedly, Nico and I are not retired […]

When you know a bit about the Algarve and think of Albufeira, the connotation “tourism” automatically comes to mind. Yes, Albufeira is an extremely lively tourist destination. But in the winter, you can enjoy the beach almost empty at sunset. And the white buildings of the town shine in this warm light and suggest a […]

Vík í Mýrdal (or simply Vík) is a village in the very south of Iceland. It has only 750 inhabitants but is nevertheless a very popular attraction for tourists. It is also the only place where you can refuel and buy food within the next 70 kilometres. Therefore, if you travel the “ring road” in […]

Praia da Ursa is the westernmost beach in continental Europe. No wonder – it is located a stone’s throw from Cabo da Roca in the Sintra mountains, which is the literal end of the continent. Compared to Cabo da Roca, however, Praia da Ursa is much more difficult to reach. Rocha da Ursa The name […]

The history of Croatian Split is extremely rich. The first Greek settlement was erected here as early as the second or third millennium BC. The city gained its splendour when Emperor Diocletian, tired of the ruling, had his palace built here. According to records of the time, Diocletian’s Palace was erected here in 305 AD. […]

Praia da Adraga is probably one of the most spectacular beaches we have seen. Located near the town of Almoçageme, it is one of the “must-see” places in the Sintra region. Blue Flag Beach Praia da Adraga attracts tourists all year round – not only during the summer season. Rock formations surrounding the beach, caves […]
