If something like anniversary with a country exist, then me and Austria should celebrate our second. Should I expect a gift? Seriously, pinch me – when did this time pass? I was literally shocked when I realized that I have lived here for a year already. But two years sounds somehow surreal. Last Autumn I’ve made a blogpost with a summary after living in Austria for one year and I thought it may be interesting to see what have changed since that time. And most importantly, am I still happy in here? Two years of living in Austria It’s my second year of living in Austria and third year…

6 books I’ve read recently
Alright, I will admit it – Netflix has recently definitely replaced my daily habit of reading books. Which is quite surprising considering the fact that since I remember, I’ve always been an absolute bookworm. Since I bought my first ebook readers around +10 years ago (Compaq Ipaq and palmtop from HP – really ancient technology, but did the job!), there was a time when I used to read a book daily. Later on, I went on and off my routine, but frequent flights helped me with finishing every week with at least 1-2 finished titles (long distance relationship had its good sides too!). Those who already follow me on…

My 5 favorite shows to binge watch during Autumn season
When it comes to Netflix I went from “who needs that?” to “who doesn’t have it?” in quite short time. Finally I had it all in one place: new movies, new episodes of favorite shows to binge, and no more searching in Google trying to find the the new episode available somewhere online that turns out to have super bad quality, or loads for ages. Let’s be honest, we all do/did it. After I switched to Netflix (and paid for the account with my friends, which is very convenient), I honestly can’t imagine going back. I’m simply too lazy. The second episode that starts exactly 10 seconds after I…

Thailand: What surprised me the most about Bangkok?
Thailand, and Bangkok itself are a bit like a different world. It seems to function like we know it in Europe, and in reality, for sure we’re going to face a major culture shock. And all of this will happen, if we would dare to take a step outside of the comfort zone. So don’t be a typical tourist, who only eats in the American-styled restaurants. Instead it’s better to discover Thailand like locals do. It’s worth it! So what has surprirsed me the most about Bangkok? What surprised me the most about Bangkok – street food i food prices Here’s the real magic of Thailand – food! While on…

My luxury travel to Italy – Rome and Sardinia (Porto Cervo)
My luxury travel to Italy Did you ever dream of making the most expensive travel, where the budget wouldn’t matter? A travel where you could basically afford anything you ever wanted, without ever looking down at your wallet? That kind of luxury travel where a private driver will be always waiting for you. Where you will only dine in the best, most expensive restaurants. And sleep in only the best hotels. Sounds like a dream come true? Well, that’s how my week in Italy looked like and I have mixed feelings about it. Luxury travel plan When my company asked me if I would like to spontaneously fly to Italy…

Hot air balloon flight over Austria (Styria) – is it worth it?
If you’re amazed by the movie scenes portraying nature, the work of camera slowly moving above the thick forests – and on the top of that, you don’t have the fear of heights, the hot air balloon flight is literally made for you! Why do I write about it? Recently I came back from my first hot air balloon flight above Austria (Styria) and I can honestly recommend this experience for all of you. Hot air balloon flight was one of those things that I’ve always thought about, but they were never on my “dream list” high enough to be my priority. Until now – and it’s not worth waiting…

And the blog couldn’t resist changes neither. Moving the blog from Blogger to WordPress has been something that I had in mind for some time already, but I didn’t know if this step is worth the try, and how to do it. Moving to WordPress finally became real, as…

No-rush sightseeing in Vienna – what to see?
There’s nothing worse for me than an attempt of seeing absolutely everything that cerain place has to offer in a very limited time. Usually it ends up with everyone feeling tired and frustrated, and in the crazy tempo no one even has time to sit down calmly, have a cup of coffee and feel the vibe of the city while resting. So if you’re also a kind of a traveler that would most likely just prefer enjoying the moment, make a sightseeing without any rush and you don’t mind that you’re not going to check all the “must see” things from your list, this short Vienna guide is right for…
