Behold the view that made me go to Bremen. From the corner of Wüstestätte and Marterburg you get a gorgeous look at the small, winding streets that lead into the colorful Schnoor neighborhood. Once home to many a medieval fisherman, today it is a touristy place with many pubs, restaurants, souvenir shops and small business selling all kinds of haberdasheries. Efteling vibes, for sure. 

📍 Schnoor Viertel, Bremen, Germany 🇩🇪

This summer I went solotripping through Germany with their €9 month-long public transport ticket. I've already been told that they will NOT repeat that offer this year 🥲 But I had my fun! First stop: Cologne!

If you saw my stories today then you already know that I lost pretty much all of my photos and videos from that trip. Here's what I could salvage from my DSLR and Lightroom library. More details and pictures are in the "Germany 3" highlight on my profile! 😊

And since I no longer post on my blog, I'm going to post a list of my favorite things here. You can save this post if you want to find it again later! 😌

COLOGNE FAVORITES:
1. Watch the sunset from the Rheinpromenade 
2. Instagram pictures at Fishmarkt
2. Count the Picasso's in Museum Ludwig
3. Lunch/Brunch & shopping in Belgisches Viertel
4. Dinner in Südstadt and @ais.baby for dessert

Casual Style, Spring/Summer, Style · 15 August 2013

Basic Is Best

J.Crew dress • Forever 21 ring • Carpisa bag • Christian Di Riccio Shoes


Much like Canterbury and me, this dress and I are a perfect couple. It’s navy, it’s lace and it’s J.Crew. Can’t get much better than that! This week has been a very busy one so far. Right after I got back from Canterbury, my friend J and I packed our weekend bags and went to dance, sing and eat good food at Markt Rock in Leuven. We ran into Siel and enjoyed a gig by local beat boxers and a concert by Bart Peeters. It was an overall fun experience, and my first time visiting the festival. Yesterday we spend a day in our capital city Brussels. I should have thought twice about my footwear for the day. Breaking in new flats when crossing a city is apparently not such a good idea… . I did bring my camera, and will show you a peek at what we saw in a post soon. Today we’re headed back to Antwerp for a lunch, some exploring for K’s student club and a party with friends.  

Reading your comments on my Canterbury post has given me much joy. It’s the first time I actually wrote about my travels so extensively, and it was nice to hear that some of you have taken notes of what places they’d like to see for themselves too! In three weeks, I’ll be back across the North Sea. This time my mom is coming with me and since she hasn’t seen much other places than our hometown, we’ll be probably doing a lot of touristy things. What is your idea of a perfect travel post? What should be in there and what shouldn’t? I’d love to hear your opinions so that I can make my posts a pleasure to share!

Have a lovely weekend!

    Great things to think about as I am traveling to Dubai and India next week. I think I will concentrate on what the local style is like and things that surprise me. In Southern India, the women don't show their legs or shoulders, there is no American-style breakfast food and dinner is after 9 pm Customs are different – no one says 'bless you' if someone sneezes. I can't wait to discover Dubai!

    Navy and you equates to a great combination. That color is just fantastic for both your hair and complexion.

    I loved your Canterbury post! A perfect travel post, huh? Bright, lovely pictures (no problem for you!). I also like seeing a bit about what people did and their impressions of it (what did they like, any history they found interesting etc.) and where they eat or shop can also be fun. Basically if you are sharing what you loved about your trip, the readers will love it too.

    Mooie jurk trouwens, kant doet het ook altijd goed in mijn ogen, niets zo mooi als dat! Geweldige kleur en snit ook 🙂
