I've been on 2 sunset desert safaris, as well as taken a tour with the quads before, and it is always a guaranteed good time (as long as you have a strong stomach). When planning a look for the dunes, there are a few things to keep in mind: It will be hot, sandy and super windy! Try to go for something comfortable, light fabrics and clothes that will stay put, even with crazy winds...
Today, at brunch, Mike looked at me and said “Isn’t crazy how November will be over in 2 weeks? The year will be gone before we know it”.
In a very strange way, Abu Dhabi has stolen my heart. To be honest, I can't tell you why, but after my 3rd trip to the Emirate state, I am more sure than ever and in my mind, I am already planning round 4. To me, Abu Dhabi is extremely interesting...
It is hard to imagine that there was a time that I didn't care about breakfast at all. Don't get me wrong, I always loved a lazy brunch with friends on the weekend. In the mornings before work, however, the extra 20 minutes of sleep always overruled a bite to eat and coffee in a to-go cup was my first meal of the day ...
It is November and instead of snow, we had 20°C today. A few weeks ago, the folk saying was leaning towards an incredibly harsh Winter and lots of snow, but with the way things are currently going, I think we're in store for a milder season. While I do prefer the surroundings to be covered in white snow for Christmas in the mountains with my parents, I am definitely not complaining about the fact that it currently feels like Spring. I wore ...
Just in time for the wintery season, I have a hotel review straight from the Austrian Alps for you guys today. Whether you're still looking for a super special Christmas present or a spontaneous weekend getaway in the snowy mountains, the Bergland Soelden is the place for you. During a recent trip, Kathi and I stayed there for a night - just like Daniel Craig while filming for the new 007 movie. Literally, our room was the one next to the suite he stayed in, and of course we snuck in there while nobody was looking!
You know those things that nobody actually needs, but everyone wants? The little things that add a special touch to your outfit - or in today's case, your apartment! Interior design and decor definitely fall into that category for me and make me happy. I love fresh flowers on the dining table, scented candles spread out around the living room (I know, basic bi**h alert) and framed prints placed on the stairs next to stacks of magazines. I feel that creating a home you love, no matter how small or big, ...
For the first evening of our James Bond trip, we all got to choose amazing outfits from Peek & Cloppenburg to ensure that we were dressed the part.
As of yesterday, Mr. Bond has officially conquered the movie theaters in Austria with his new movie "Spectre". I have always loved the gadgets, perfect suits, the stunning women and the action. BUT I also love the James Bond movies for a different reason: The travels and locations. In Casino Royale I was enchanted by Venice, in Skyfall the Scottish countryside was mystical, impressive and scary all at the same time. This time around, Austria played a major role in the movie (18 minutes).
I’ve been blogging for almost 6 years now. That’s a long time! Imagine having the same job for 6 years …
There is always a certain magic that comes with a city located by a large body of water.
After a week spent in beautiful Tulum, we decided to head further inland for an additional two days in Mexico.
Visiting a newly opened hotel always has pros and contras. A few advantages and a whole bunch of possible risks.
If you have ever found yourself researching hotels for New York City, chances are pretty high that you have come across, or heard of The Standard High Line Hotel.
As much as I love the excitement of exploring and getting to know a new city, there is something extra special about returning to a place.
