Castle Hill Light is a lighthouse that has become a symbol of Newport and is one of the most visited landmarks at Narragansett Bay in Rhode Island in the United States. It is said to be a frequent spot where marriage proposals are made. And, of course, later wedding photo shoots take place. Castle […]
We have already dedicated one article about La Seu – the main cathedral in Palma, Mallorca. In the previous photo, however, Nico has mainly captured this Gothic cathedral with its adjacent moat. This shot was taken from the park by the port of Palma. Thanks to the wider perspective, the Royal Palace of La Almudaina […]
Františkovy Lázně is a SPA-town in North Bohemia not far from Karlovy Vary. We have been there more than once – after all, Nico’s family originates from this area on his grandmother’s side. She was born in the region and lived there until she needed to move at the end of World War II. […]
If literally translated from the German ‘Neuschwanstein Schloss‘, the name would be ‘Castle of the New Swan Stone’. A perfect term for this fairytale castle located near the village of Hohenschwangau in Bavaria, Germany. But why such fairytale architecture and the name of this most popular castle in the world? According to tourist information, […]
Burano is an island just 7 kilometers from Venice, Italy. You can get there by water bus from Venice (Vaporetto) or by water taxi. Although Venice itself is an intense experience that will take you a minimum of a few days, Burano is definitely worth making room for in your itinerary. Burano is known for […]
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 […]
The 25 April Revolution Monument by João Cutileiro commemorates the day of the 1974 Carnation Revolution, which ended years of dictatorship in Portugal. The revolution ushered in significant economic, demographic, social, and territorial changes in Portugal and its overseas colonies. The dictatorship was abolished in favor of democracy and, as a result, also brought political […]
The Doha Heritage Village is a place that manages to amaze one with its contrasts. On the one hand, “Katara” is designed to resemble a traditional Qatari merchant village. On the other hand, the entire complex has only been in existence since 2010 and is home to modern art and galleries such as French Galeria […]
Madeira is probably the best place in southern Europe to see the various populations of dolphins and whales. Depending on the season, about 8 kinds of whales and more than 20 kinds of dolphins can be spotted off the coast of Madeira. Theoretically, the best time to see dolphins and whales is between April […]
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 […]
Coimbra was the capital of Portugal from 1131 to 1255. However, it is not the castle or church that towers over the entire city, as is often the case with medieval cities. The central building of Coimbra is the University and this says a lot about the character of this city. With the move […]
Santana in Madeira is known mainly for its characteristic houses with sloping roofs covered with straw. These houses used to be used by farmers but today they are just a tourist attraction. May is the month when flowers bloom on Madeira. Every year the island holds a “Madeira Flower Festival” at this time. In […]
The pilgrimage church in Wies is not located in the center of a big city and is not such an obvious place to visit. When you arrive at the site, you’ll even feel like you’re in the middle of a field. However, countless tourists flock to this place every year. The church is a true […]
Looking at this photo of Paris do you recognize any neighborhoods? No, we did not get to visit the French capital. This photo was taken from a plane when we flew from Berlin to Lisbon in 2021. But who knows? Maybe in 2022 we will be able to visit Paris? Nico’s dream is […]
We had the opportunity to visit Ingolstadt in Bavaria, Germany during our trip to Italy via Germany. Ingolstadt, had something special about it – on the one hand it is one of the oldest cities in Bavaria, and on the other hand it is a “wealthy” city when it comes to growing companies – especially […]
Sun Voyager is located near Sæbraut road in Reykjavík. This sculpture was commissioned to commemorate 200 years of the Icelandic capital. The project itself was conceived back in 1986 by artist Jón Gunnar, who linked the concept of Sun Voyager to the history and mythology of Icelanders. Sun Voyage in Iceland The Sun Voyager was […]
Hallgrímskirkja or “Hallgrimur Church” as it is translated, is the largest church in Reykjavík. It is also the second-largest building in all of Iceland! This 74-meter high church is visible from almost every part of Reykjavík and makes it easy to orient yourself in the capital of the Island. Hallgrimur Church This church was designed […]
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 […]
