Stockholm was a city I knew I’ll fell in love with immediately. Combination of beautiful historical architecture and a city on a sea (located on 14 islands) was a winning combination for me. I’ve enjoyed so much in my four days in Stockholm! And well, here’s my travel diary.
Last Easter I’ve spent five days in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, a small German town, located in the middle of the Alps. And although it was way in the second half of April, we had proper winter holidays filled with mountaineering, Bavarian cuisine, snow and some more snow.
One of the reasons I moved from Amsterdam to Haarlem was to enjoy the nature more, vicinity of the sea and a Zuid-Kennemerland National Park. So, when the last weekend, the weather forecast showed a beautiful sunny day, we decided to take our bicycles and cycle from Haarlem to IJmuiden. And we chose a longer but more beautiful way, through the Zuid-Kennemerland National Park.
Hey guys, I have a blogiversary!!! A year ago (yes, indeed, on the 1st of April) I went to the Chamber of Commerce in Amsterdam and registered my own company – Culturetourist.com! I quit my job and felt like a true #girlboss! Except, I was terrified! And not only because I opened my company on the April’s Fools Day, but because I was afraid of that vast confusing freelance world I just entered. I never worked for myself. I never pitched for a job collaboration or sent an invoice to someone before. But, I felt like I had nothing to…
When thinking of Paris’ architecture some of the first things coming to our mind are usually Gothic Notre Dame Cathedral and St. Chapelle or Haussmann’s boulevards with the same historical buildings on them.

I was waiting to see the snow in Amsterdam for the last three years! And when I finally saw it I felt in love with the city all over again. Somehow, it became even more beautiful, peaceful and charming. I took my camera and went for a walk around the oldest part of Amsterdam – the Red Light District. Here are some photos I took.

Paris is one of my favourite cities! I’m so in love with its museums, French cuisine and the vibe the city has. I’m quite a lucky Paris is only three hours away with a train from Amsterdam.

Well, here is my travel diary with things I did during my three days in Paris.
