6-day Tenerife Road Trip (Part I)

6-day Tenerife Road Trip (Part I)

Tenerife. To most people that means 320 sunny days a year, yellow sand beaches and all-inclusive resorts as far as the eye can see. I’m going to give you none of that. Instead, I am going to show you sides of Tenerife you never knew about. If eerie mist, black beaches and breathtaking mountain views sound good to you, than you might want to read along. It’s going to be good, I promise. Since I always talk too much and am an avid photographer, I have to split this travel guide into two posts. In today’…

Madrid Photo Diaries

Madrid Photo Diaries

You guys cannot believe how happy I am to finally be writing this blog post. It’s been a long time in the making. It’s been two years since I went to Madrid with my friend E and it was my last trip of 2017. I’m SUPER STOKED to finally be finished with my blog content from 2017! It was a spontaneous idea to travel to Madrid. We were sipping coffee after an outfit shoot and it somehow came up. I had put Madrid on my travel list for 2017 and the years was nearly ending without any …

La Vida Dulce in Seville

La Vida Dulce in Seville

Okay, I’ll start this blog post off with a confession. I wasn’t anywhere near Seville this summer. Or this year even. My hair that is still long in the photos will give that away too. I visited the southern Spanish city in June of 2017, together with my boyfriend, who had been dying to take me there since we started dating in 2009. I just didn’t feel it. Spain, I mean. I never had a thing for “the South”, as we Europeans like to call it. I’m a Northern girl at heart. …

Shopping and eating in Barcelona

Shopping and eating in Barcelona

Oh Barcelona! To celebrate his 25th birthday K flew me over to Barcelona (as his gift for my own upcoming birthday) where he was staying for a job training. He put me in charge of making the travel plan as we’d only have 24 hours of free time together (and I had 8 extra hours on my own). With a little help from my friends I made said travel plan, which ultimately became a shortlist of places I wanted to get food from. We threw in the Sagrada Família and Parc Güell at the end of …

Barcelona Part 2

Barcelona Part 2

1. We just landed! 2. From Gaudis hand 3. Checking our positions on the map 4. A balcony, like there are millions in the city 5. Entrance of a building 6. House in ‘our’ hood 7. Resting and watching the wild parrots I’m such a bad blogger at times. I totally forgot to share this post with you! It’s been in my concepts for quite a while and I never got around posting it. It’s been 1 and a half month since I went to Barcelona. I can’t wrap my head around how fast the past two months …

Barcelona part 1: Sight Seeing

Barcelona part 1: Sight Seeing

May I present to you the first load of pictures from Barcelona. Prepare, cause there are many more to come! I became a real shutterbug, snappin’ everything I saw. I just didn’t trust my memory enough, so I had to capture everything on film SD-card. Barcelona was my first ever flight experience. I had never been in a plane before, so imagine me beeing pretty scared. Now I can tell you that flying is so much fun! I especially loved it when we landed in Brussels around midnight, you could see al the citylights! So pretty. I …
