Travel Diary: Lisbon part #1

Goodmorning and welcome back! As you may have noticed, I've been absent for a little while.

This month I decided to go solo traveling for the very first time.

I went to Lisbon, Portugal on my own for a week and although I missed my boyfriend (who was sweet enough to let me go), I came back with tons of happy memories!

I'm not your typical travel blog but if you've been around for a while, you might have noticed that I like a dash of travel and lifestyle sometimes. So here it is. Lisbon, part 1. I do have to add that all the pictures you'll be seeing are taken with my phone camera - maybe the quality is a little less, but I didn't want to get robbed so brought as little as I could on this trip! Safety first, guys!

Right after I got off the airplane and checked into my accommodation, I decided to go and explore a little bit. I wanted to go see a garden close to my hotel, but it was closed for renovation. So I went ahead and walked a bit further - up to Bairro Alto.

Bairro Alto is the area with a very nice nightlife. There's bars and restaurants everywhere and at night it's the perfect place to go party. During the day it's calmer, but not less nice!

Since I arrived so early, I had all day to explore. The next spot I went to visit was the Rossio Square and all the shops around it, before continuing to Castelo De Sao Jorge.

Lisbon has so many castles and palaces! It's crazy! 

On my way to Castelo De Sao Jorge.... Grafitti everywhere! Some very good pieces! And it's not just here, it's in the trainstations and outside of the city of Lisbon as well. Some true artists live here!

 

As you can see, my first day was a very nice one and I got to explore a lot! Keep reading - I still have more to come up! 

 

Thanks for taking the time to read my blog on Sunday! I hope you enjoyed this post!

Travel Diary: London

Hello everyone! How have you been doing?

I haven't been keeping you up to date when it comes to my travelling adventures! 

I recently went to London for the first time in my life and I had a blast! Going to London has been a long time dream and even though I didn't get to visit everything I wanted, I saw and learned a lot of new things! 

Here are a couple of pictures! I hope you enjoy!

Travel Diary: Paris

Goodmorning all of you! 

Currently, I've done a bit of travelling. If you follow my instagram page, you might have seen some pictures that popped up. My boyfriend and I went on a citytrip to Paris for three days.

It was a much needed break and it was so nice to explore Paris. I had been once before back when I was in high school, but back then we didn't have too much freedom to go and explore ourselves.  

I tried to take pictures of not only the popular buildings and places, but some surprising sights as well.

 

Of course I didn't take pictures of all the places we went to, simply because it wasn't allowed or sometimes I just forgot because I was caught up in the moment.

Place du tertre is a little square with artists who sketch you or make caricatures,... It's absolutely amazing and it's so much fun to walk around there. We had ours done as well and are very happy with the result. It's a vivid memory of our first trip together.

Thanks for reading! 

Have a great day! 

Travel Diary: Madrid!

Hi everyone! Welcome back!

I have talked about travelling quite often on this blog, especially when I come back from a trip. I like to show you all the pictures and tell you all about it - sometimes even give some advice in case you ever end up in that location.

 

This whole summer I have been planning to go travelling, but every single time there was something that got in the way.

Recently, I've started school, but I haven't even had a real holiday yet. Time to change that!

Later this month I'm hopping up a plane to fly to Madrid! I think it'll be a good way to relax and get away from everything for a bit, as well as giving me some time to get inspired by my new surroundings. Of course I'd also like it if you share any tips & tricks, experiences, must see or do activities in Madrid!

 

Thanks a ton for reading! Keep an eye out for more posts!

When in Rome....

Goodmorning everyone!
If you've been wondering where I've been, I'll tell you! I'm currently in Rome, on a schooltrip.
As a person who loves to travel (and someone who studies history), I'm feeling absolutely amazing visiting this place.

 

We've seen some very well known buildings on our first day, which I'd like to show to you now. Take a walk with me through some of Romes finest places.
In this blogpost I won't be writing a lot of information, more pictures and detailed information are coming up in my Travel Diary series, so stay tuned if you're looking for something like that. It's not so much about touring/guiding/travelling, but more about the beauty of certain less popular places or things.

Quick tip: you need to cover yourself in holy places!

Park in the city center

Pantheon

Of course, we end the day with some snacks and a cocktail! 

And on an evening stroll....

Thanks for reading! I'll be uploading more soon! 

Have a nice day!
