We didn’t know much about Poznan before we visited the city in summer 2014 and we fell in love with this polish gem. Our stay in Poznan was so great that we keep sending our friends there and, after a while, we realized that we never wrote a proper guide to Poznan. So, if you are looking for a guide to this city, you can stop you search because now you will see a lot of things to do in Poznan.

The first time we visited Sweden, we also visited Älvsborg Fortress in Gothenburg. This large fortress is located, strategically, in Göta River since it was built to protect what was then the only access Sweden had to the North Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. But the fortress we visited isn’t the first one built to protect what would become Gothenburg later.

Please meet Krampus, Santa Claus’ shadow. Krampus is a horrific beast that is half-demon and half-goat who literally beats children up from naughty to nice. Krampus isn’t exactly what you expect for Christmas, I assure you.

Most people don’t know but there is a piece of Africa in Berlin and you can find it in Wedding, a district north of Berlin. There you are going to see the African Quarter of Berlin and we only manage to discover that because we were invited by With Locals to try one of their tours. Once we took a look at what was available, we knew we had to explore Wedding with Henning, our connection with the African Roots of Berlin.

The Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood in St. Petersburg is a church of many names. Some call it Church of Our Savior on Blood, Church on the Blood, Temple of the Savior on Spilled Blood and the Church of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. Either way, this is a special church since it was built where Tzar Alexander II was fatally wounded in March 1881.

The first thing we did when we got to Saint Petersburg with the guys from Timetravels was the visit to the Sphinx of Saint Petersburg. Such an unexpected sight to have in Russia. It is even more weird when you look across the river into all the neo-classical palaces and building overlooking the waters. Somehow it felt like a weird trip back in time.

Birrificio Lambrate is a cool, small brewery in Milan, with spectacular beers. And this is coming from a girl that refuses to accept birra as beer - after all, I live in Germany, you know? I'm a spoiled kid.

On our my first time in Finland, I went to Porvoo ready to do anything. If the plan was take bikes into the wild, I had the equipment to do it. If the plan was to swim, I had everything ready to take pictures from the water. All this was possible because I brought my Sony Action camera with me. Too bad nobody knew this trip would be a painful journey for the camera.

The Åland Islands are a group of islands between Sweden and Finland. Officially speaking the islands are Finnish, but they speak Swedish and they had their autonomy awarded to them by the League of Nations in 1921. This was the only way to settle the long-running dispute between Sweden and Finland about who owns Åland. In fact, nobody owns Åland and they are an autonomous area surrounded by the Baltic Sea and they take care of most things themselves.
