The Hague was a surprise to me. A city that I only knew due to be home to U.N.’s International Court of Justice. But Hague is way more than this. It has a gorgeous mixture of old and new architecture, a lot of cultural events and canals that will make you feel like you are walking in Amsterdam, without all the tourists.

We hope you know but, if you don't, Birra is the Italian word for beer, and this is the core of the bar in Prenzlauer Berg. They offer almost twenty different types of beer from the tap. During our visit, nearly half of them were from Birrificio Lambrate. This is great for us since we have been to Birrificio Lambrate before, on a trip to Milan back in 2015, and we loved every minute of it.

After walking in the sun for hours, we decided we deserved some excellent food. That was when we stumbled upon Seariani, a charming seafood restaurant in a cute cat-filled alley behind the town square. Very easy to find but hidden enough to eat in the outside tables with no people passing by.

What can we say about our stay at Scandic Passi in Helsinki? First, we have to say that it was one of the best hotels we have ever been. If you are asking yourself why, let us tell you our reasons. So, the hotel is beautifully designed to remember the area’s history. All the walls in the hotel are decorated with a circus theme that may sound a little creepy but works perfectly. From the reception area to the number of the rooms, everything looks so cool that you might feel like you want to copy it in your house later.

If you are a fan of craft beer like we are, you know your way around the beers brewed by the guys from BrewDog. So, we don’t need to talk much about why we decided to bring some friends with us when we went to the BrewDog DogTap in Berlin-Mariendorf to eat some burgers and have some beers.

Lager Lager is a craft beer bar almost hidden in a quiet street in the booming neighborhood that some people like to call Kreuzkölln. This is one of the many examples of how the craft beer scene in Berlin is vibrant and has experienced an excellent number of bars opening in town.

Before I decided to go to Kaliningrad in October 2017, I did a lot of research about the places I wanted to see and where I could stay. Finding the tourist spots and the unusual places I like to visit was straightforward and simple. But, finding where to stay in Kaliningrad was more complicated than I was expecting. Maybe, it's because this small piece of Russia between Lithuania and Poland is not known as a tourist destination. Perhaps it's something else.

When I went to Estonia at the beginning of 2017, I explored a cemetery of Soviet statues and spent the night in a historical manor surrounded by art. But the thing that made me love Estonia was the food. Yeah, my stomach was impressed, and this is why I had to write a short review of my favorite restaurant in Tallinn: Restaurant Pegasus.

When you live in Berlin, you end up exploring the same neighborhoods all the time. It’s easier like that, but you might miss a lot of great spots. To fix this, I decided to explore a famous part of Berlin that I usually don’t visit often. Because of my lack of knowledge, I decided to spend 48 hours there just to see what could I see and do in one of the most famous areas of the German capital.

Inside the 25hours Hotel Berlin, you will find almost 150 rooms in a modernist building from the 1950s. The building had seen better days in the past, and it was neglected for quite a while before Bikini-Haus came into existence with its shops, restaurants, and lifestyle. Bringing some new life into a part of Berlin that needed a breath of fresh air.

One of the most famous Bregenz Festival stages is the one from the 2007/2008 season. This is where some scenes for the James Bond movie Quantum of Solace were filmed. We remember watching it on TV some time before going to Bregenz and it looked almost unreal.
