Destinations are at the heart of this blog. We’ve visited every place we write about ourselves we don’t copy anything from Wikipedia, and we don’t sugarcoat our experiences to make them sound like a “great vacation.” We write about what we saw, what went well, and what we’d do differently next time.
In this section, you’ll find guides to destinations from around the world Europe, Asia, Africa, and Oceania. From major cities to national parks to coastal villages that haven’t yet been overrun by tourists. Each destination has its own section with tips on accommodations, transportation, food, and activities organized to save you time, not add to your worries.
Ad space: When planning our accommodations, we rely on Booking.com, we book guided tours through GetYourGuide, and we always compare flight prices on KAYAK. This isn’t an advertisement it’s just what we use ourselves.
Choose a continent, country, or city and start planning. Or just let yourself be inspired that’s a good place to start, too.
Iceland is expensive, cold, windy, and utterly fascinating. There aren’t many places in the world where you can witness a volcanic eruption, bathe in thermal waters, and watch the Northern Lights all in a single day. In this section, we’ll show you Iceland as we experienced it.
Here you’ll find guides to the Golden Circle, Southwest Iceland, Snaefellsnes, and less touristy areas in the north and east. We write about how to travel around Iceland on a budget renting a car vs. public transportation. Where to camp legally, how to save on food, and why camping in Iceland with the right sleeping bag is really great.
Ad space: In Iceland, there isn’t much room for improvisation especially in the winter. We book our accommodations in advance through Booking.com and rent a car through KAYAK, where we compare actual prices, including mandatory insurance. For excursions to geysers, glaciers, or the Northern Lights, we recommend GetYourGuide.
Iceland deserves more than a week but even one week will change your perspective on the world. We’re glad we can share it with you.

We came to Katowice mainly as a transfer stop on the way somewhere else. But the city centre personally stopped me in my tracks – in a good way. I expected a grey industrial city and got a lively centre that breathes at first glance, and when I saw old...
