You’ve likely already snapped (or seen) the following travel photos: someone jumping in front of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, pinching the top of Big Ben in London, and staring off into the distance of a stunning natural landscape like Machu Picchu or the Grand Canyon. Some tourist destinations live up to their hype, while…
Ein gebrochenes Herz, ein Junggesellinnenabschied, eine Wiedervereinigung, eine jährliche Tradition, die Sehnsucht nach mehr Selbstfindung oder einfach “nur” Lust auf Gemeinsamkeit. Einen Grund für ein Mädels-Wochenende unter Freundinnen gibt es eigentlich immer! Obwohl es mit echten Freundinnen eigentlich überall am schönsten sein kann, ist es besonders toll einen Ausflug an einen Ort zu unternehmen, der…
We recently shared the best places to travel in November, but just in case you dropped the ball on booking a trip (we know, we know, you’re busy), you still have some time to squeeze in a vacation before the year closes out. After all, with the holidays and New Year’s just around the bend,…
Photo courtesy of Flickr/Joe Hunt Chances are, you know that Budapest is brimming with fairytale buildings, a layered history, Turkish baths, and paprika-packed dishes like goulash.

Foto: Flickr/Fred PO Auf der Suche nach einem Reiseziel für einen Städtetrip mit seiner/seinem Liebsten, denkt man sofort an Paris, “die Stadt der Liebe” oder Venedig “la Serenissima.” Diese zwei Städte sind von keiner Ranking-Liste der “romantischsten Orte” wegzudenken – und das nicht ohne Grund! Für einen romantischen Städtetrip zu zweit braucht man das ganz…
Hot springs have been popular for their curative and relaxation properties for millennia, and to this day people around the world seek out hot springs for their medicinal benefits. While hot springs abound wherever there is geothermal activity, many exist on private land or at the end of long trails deep in the forest. Fortunately,…
Zela W via Flickr Wi-Fi, skyscrapers, Instagram, awesome travel websites, ahem, — there’s a lot to say for the modern world. But when it comes to travel and soaking up the history of a new city, sometimes it’s best to look backwards to get the true sense of place. Gothic architecture, medieval squares, local customs…
Marcel Katona via Flickr Creative Commons Yes, they both begin with a “b,” but aside from that fun fact there are many other factors that make Budapest similar to Berlin.
