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…

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…

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…

Seychelles Islands – travel cost and how I organized the journey on my own (La Digue, Praslin, Mahe)
Spending Winter on the paradise beach with crystal clear water and coconut in my hand has been my dream for a long time. I thought about it especially when I had to drive my bike to work, and the weather made me want to turb back home and crawl straight into my bed. Admit it, you had it in mind way too many times too. And if I would be about to get a cent for every time I’ve heard a similar statement from my friends, I would save up for… well, at least for another coconut. However, what differs me from the others is that I take the matters…

Where to eat in Amsterdam? – My favorite places
From the very beginning, Amsterdam has jumped onto my list of favorite cities, all thanks to its amazing architecture. So far, I have always been fascinated by Sweden, their Scandinavian style and often completely exposed windows, from where you could admire their stylish interiors during walks. Amsterdam has it all, and in addition, there are some amazing, very narrow houses – some of them have special hooks on top to carry heavy objects by pulling them with a rope and putting them through a window. During various trips, however, I do not always have the opportunity to cook alone, so I often check the lists lists of recommended places on TripAdvisor…

How to dress for winter mountain trekking? Mini tutorial
Mountains are a great place. Those who are looking for some rest, silence and a place to calm down, will certainly find themselves in these circumstances. Just like those looking for adventures, the beauty of nature and some serious training. This is what amazes me about the mountains the most – they just offer us their best sides. But the love for the mountains is not everything, because you also have to take care of your safety, and consequently, also for the right clothing. Just how to dress for the winter trekking in the mountains, that it would not be too cold or too hot for us? And how can…

Winter trekking in Austria – Hochlantsch mountain
Austria has it, that it’s beautiful at any time of the year. Therefore, even if you have already been in a certain region in the summer, the route will not get bored, because in the winter it gains some charm (and difficulties, by the way). The fact of living in Austria does not mean, however, that we climb to the house through the slopes, and ski down to work – Graz is located on quite flat terrain, thanks to which my daily commute to work by bike, although still healthy and sporty, is not a big effort. However, the whole magic of the mountains starts nearby, and it’s enough to…
