A perfect trip to Hanoi
As Vietnam's capital Hanoi has a lot to offer, from delectable food and a great coffee culture, a fascinating history and interesting architecture, there is something for everyone. Only the traffic is hard to manage, but you will get used to it. The best time for a trip to Hanoi, in my opinion, is from March to May, just outside…

Ho Chi Minh City has won several awards over the last years, the last ones in 2023, as one of the top travel destinations in Asia in general and Vietnam in particular. I went there on my third tip to Vietnam, to fly into and to fly out of. I spend a total of one week in the city and…

Long Weekend in Lisbon
Lisbon has many things to offer as a major city with a long and turbulent history. It is impossible to see everything, or even a majority of things in only one long weekend, but that doesn't mean I didn't try. I have seen some itineraries that included more than eight stops per day, which are bordering on impossible to do.…

Long weekend in Amsterdam
This is not an itinerary for someone who has never been to Amsterdam before, you won't find the standard touristy advice here. Rather I want to give you an idea of what to do, where to eat and what to see during a long weekend in Amsterdam when you are just on a short city getaway.
