Get out and explore the world
With Porto we had now reached the end of our Portugal tour. Completely without expectation, we began our discovery tour in the second largest city in Portugal. Surprisingly, this city captured my heart in a very short time.
After a few relaxing days at the Algarve, we were looking forward to a little more hustle and bustle in the Portuguese capital, Lisbon. We chose a central hotel as our starting point and walked everything on foot, this is the best way to soak up the beauty of the city.
To be honest, Portugal wasn’t really on my bucket list. However, we had to go to a trade fair in Quarteira for a few days on business and thought … why not?
Sun, pasta & Aperol Spritz … we were especially looking forward to that. However, the short trip to Lake Garda also convinced us in other areas.
Beach vacation or city break? That’s the cool thing about Barcelona, you don’t have to make a decision. A bit of culture in the morning, siesta on the beach and sipping sangria at La Rambla in the evening. What more do you want?
Hiking is one of our absolute favorite pastimes. In Austria the possibilities are endless … we could climb a different mountain every day. Every now and then, however, we are drawn to a hiking holiday in a foreign country – or rather to our Italian neighbors.
With Svens Cabrio we went south to Olang in South Tyrol. The “Bärenhotel” is located at an altitude of 1330 m, beautifully embedded in the middle of the Dolomites.
Happy Birthday sweetheart! I have a very special present for you … With these words Sven surprised me, he gave me a kiss and handed me a small package. Curious, I unpacked it straight away – it was a day of skiing followed by an igloo night. I was completely surprised and really looking forward to it, but I also had my concerns. Just thinking about a night in an igloo gave me goose bumps 🥶
Is Paris really the city of love? For us, it definitely is. When Sven and I flew to Paris we had only been together for 1 year and were still totally on cloud nine 😊
Ich hatte Sven mit dieser Reise zum Geburtstag überrascht. Unser erster gemeinsamer Städtetrip. Allerdings mussten I had surprised Sven with this trip for his birthday. Our first city trip together. However, we had to overcome a few obstacles first … We had missed the flight and that on an Easter weekend. All the flights and even the trains were fully booked. So we only had the option to rebook. You can imagine our disappointment. But we did have a little consolation. I got sick the day after … it would have ruined the trip one way or another.
