Top 5 travel destinations
We’ve been challenged by Rejse Guide af Guld to tell you about our Top 5 travel destinations, I am going to start by telling you that picking five of the trips we have done over the years – that’s not an easy task, but I will try my best. There are so many different reasons to why a trip could have easely been the best, but it’s not about the trip itself, but about the desination so I have tried to stick to the destinations that have kind stuck with me after visitng and that I would really like to re-visit for some specific reason. EDINBURGH Does this come as…

10 Advent questions about traveling – part 1
So I have seen a bunch of lists that’s been going around for quite some time, and I thought I would do one of them, but I just had to put a little travel twist on it. But of course that gave me a lot of questions, so I thought I would divide the lists a bit and give you one of them each advent. We’re starting out with the first one, that’s about flights and airports. I hope you enjoy the read. 1. On a flight, what is your preferred beverage? Buy on the plane or bring it with you?Oh, this is an easy question, no doubt. Gin and…

The trip to Edinburgh during Beltane, canceled – again?!
You all know that I love Edinburgh right?If I had not fallen in love with Edinburgh on the very instant we first met, I would have fallen in love with the city during our last trip. There’s just no place like this, where I feel this welcoming warmth every time I visit. It’s kind of like when you visit an old childhood friend that you have not seen for years, but it clearly does not matter that a long time has gone by, you’re still the best of friends. All the images are taken during our trip to Edinburgh last summer. But our relationship has not been the easiest to…

Scott Monument
This is a hard one to miss when you visit Edinburgh, it in the middle of the city. Clear visibility from wherever you go. I think I have hundreds of images of this building, from all different angles. But let me tell you this, this is one beautiful monument and I completely understand the location of it but its not really photogenic. I have been there early morning, late night, in the middle of the day, with and without the sun. Nope, my friends, the monument is not really that photogenic. It’s hard to get a good picture of it, and I know it, I have been trying my best.…

Bucketlist for 2020
Yes, we did a Bucketlist for 2019 aswell, so why not make it a tradition? Last year we cheated by putting Madrid on the list, even though we had already booked the trip. But then again, I think we kind of jinxed last year’s list, cuz we only made it to two of our bucket list destinations. We made it to Madrid and Edinburgh in Scotland. We didn’t even make it to Copenhagen, and that’s like a train ride away… So first off is two of last year’s bucket list destinations, that we’re gonna leave on the list for this year as well. Maybe even a third… yes, a third,…

Inside of St Giles Cathedral
Its beautiful right? The cathedral is located on the Royal Mile, you simply cant miss it and you really shouldnt. If you visit Edinburgh in Scotland, just make sure that you see the cathedral, both inside and out, its really amazing. Maybe I shouldnt put that on you, I only entered the cathedral on my second second visit to Edinburgh… If you want to phograph inside the cathedral, make sure that go get a photopermit. Just stop at the enrance and you will see the sign for the permits. As a photonerd, it was all worth it for me.But what about you, would you pay a fee to be able…

Review of 2019
Last year we did a Review of 2018 so lets keep this up and make a small review of this year as well. We started 2019 in Dublin Ireland with the best group of people ever, so we kicked off the new year in style. We have stayed in Europe all year, even though we’ve had the ambission of going on a longer trip. Travelling longer takes some more planning on our behalf, and to be honest, we’re kind of to impulsive to plan a longer trip. Anyways, here’s what we have done during 2019: JanuaryIreland, Dublin FebruarySpain, Madrid Our next trip was suppose to be Scotland and Edinburgh,…

Drinks on a rooftop bar – with a view
Yes, the rooftop thing as become a thing. I tend to google for great rooftops when I am abroad, to get a good drink and a view to die for. These images are taken from the rooftop terrace at the national Museum of Scotland, beautiful right? As we were there late august, the lavendar season was about finished, but I can imagine how stunning this rooftop terrace would have been in full bloom. And yes, you could see the Edinburgh castle from the rooftop aswell, but seeing as it was during the Fringe festivale, there was a lot of non-photogenic stuff infront of the castle, so no pictures of the…

Guess again!
Yupp! The second trip for 2020 is booked, or actually, this is the first. Hm, okey, let me put this into more understandable words, I seem to be blabbering a bit. This is the second trip for 2020 that we have booked, but we are leaving for Edinburgh before we head off to Paris. Does that make sence? We are finally going for the Beltane celebrations, I have been wanting to go for two years now, but the time has never been right. Its a festivale of lights and it marks the beginning of summer. Its gonna be so much fun! Just google Beltane if you want to know more…

Top 6 tasty tastings in Europe
Yes, in my opinion, this is the Top 6 of Tasty Tastings in Europe – of all the things we have tried. They are catagorized by date, staring with the first tasting we did, ending with last. Not in the order of what we liked best. And yes, I have done a few other tastings aswell, like a winetasting in Thessaloniki Greece many years ago, but it was kind of to long ago to have a keen memory of it. Wine Tasting in Bratislava – Slovakia The Whiskey Experience in Edinburgh – Scotland Beer Spa in Prague – Czech Republic Bar hopping in Dublin – Ireland Wine Tasting in Nessebar…
