There is no better way to see Brno than from a bird’s eye view. If you haven’t flown in a small plane, I absolutely recommend it. It is quite different than a large commercial plane. The experience is incredibly freeing!
Between Prague’s cobblestone streets, Gothic and Roman architecture, and colorful buildings, are thousands of restaurants, bars, and culinary shops waiting to be discovered. As a full time traveler, I’ve learned that the best way to experience a culture is through its food.
If you’re a beer lover, you’re going to adore Prague. Here beer is life. From hearty meals to beer cheaper than water, this country runs on ale.
In which I share my personal stories traveling though Croatia from Zagreb to the Coast.
Zagreb is Croatia’s largest city. One in four of the country’s population lives here and there is a good reason for that – it’s filled with great restaurants, bars, and tons of museums. This makes it the cultural heart of the nation. Though it holds true to it’s roots as an Austro-Hungarian empire, this city has become colorful, artistic, vibrant; all thanks to it’s youth.
A trip to Croatia is not complete without visiting its coast. There was not a single city or town that I explored that I did not adore. From the bathing spots on cliffs, to the salty air, to the crystal-clear water, and fabulous dining scene; the coast of Croatia is a gem.
I’ve always said that the best way to learn about a country is by tasting it; sipping its wine, pairing the spirits with local snacks, indulging on its cuisine. Combine that cuisine with meeting locals and, now you’re having a true cultural experience. That’s what I love about food tours; and the Urban Adventures Zagreb Wine & Dine tour was no exception.
There are few moments that feel as authentically Portuguese as listening to the passionate voices of fado singers while enjoying world-class grilled octopus, bacalhau (salted cod fish), and porto wine.
Much of Lisbon’s history has taken place within site of the Tagus River – after living in the city for a whole month, I’ll give you the flow of what to do, where and why.
Lisbon was built next to the water – something that benefits the soul of the great seafaring nation. No matter which part of the city you’re in, you’ll never be far from the Tagus River.
Portuguese cuisine has a variety of tasty treats that are inspired by their traditions of simple food, rich fish dishes and unbeatable sweet treats from the bakery.
“Our first stop is to taste the best chocolate cake in the world!” said Filipa, founder of Taste of Lisboa. It was barely 11am. I was happy with the direction this food tour was going and we had only just begun. What could the next three and a half hours hold?
