10 x The Hague Hotspots: Tips from a Local
Today, in addition to sharing some (definitely not all) of the 'The Hague hotspots' you should check out when visiting The Hague, I'll also be sharing these and more tips on a new app that gives you an easy way to collect, remember and share all the places you love. Disclosure: this guide with some of my favourite places in The Hague was commissioned by Bimble to showcase how this new app can help you plan and organise where you want to go. All opinions are - as always - my own. My hometown The Hague has changed a lot in the last couple of years. When I moved back in 2017 after spending four years in London, I felt I had to get to know the city all over again....

London’s Calling
There are so many famous London icons: the Big Ben, the London Eye... and of course the red telephone box and the black cab. Even though you still see black cabs pretty much everywhere you go, you'll also notice that many of them are now being used as a moving...
Greenwich Time
Sometimes you just need to be a tourist in your own city. And as it is a long weekend, which means that the city is filled with tourists anyway, I thought why not join them. So I rode my bike -Â through the rain - to Greenwich. On my way to Greenwich Park I walked by...
Artisan du Chocolat’s chocolate salty balls
Sea salt and I, it's a growing love affair. What started as seasoning for my weekend egg, then scrubbing, hair spray.... has now evolved to sea salt in my chocolate. What else? I promised you more chocolate, and did I find the right spot to go to! Artisan du...
Judging people by their (book) cover
You would think that in a city where there is so much to do, there just isn't any time to sit down and read a book. But actually I don't think I've ever seen so many people read in public. It's the perfect way to kill some time on your commute to work or wherever...
Confessions of a Chocoholic
I'm a bit of a chocoholic. Nothing new for people who have known me for a while. I thought that by now I kind of gained control over my addiction, but London is just full of temptations. This Saturday I walked by this place called Ben's Cookies and I couldn't resist...
Behind the glass
Some of the store windows in London just make me laugh. Here are two of my recent finds.
Not your average walk in the park
Visiting a cemetery is probably not what first comes to mind when you're thinking about what you want to do in London. But that's actually where I'm writing this post, at the Abney Park Cemetery in North East London. Today was going to be the first warm day of the...
Foodies’ Paradise at Borough Market
In case you were wondering.... I love visiting food markets. And so far Borough Market is definitely one of my favorites. Apparently the market has been here since the 13th century and has grown to over a 100 different food stalls today. It's THE place to go to if you...
The East End
When I moved to London, I was so looking forward to discovering all the different areas of the city. Unfortunately, as it has been so cold and rainy, I haven't seen much yet. Well, it's still cold, but the sun has finally come out (for a few hours at least). So today...
Let Them Eat Cake
One of the fun things about a 'new city' is that I can discover new hotspots for having coffee, tea.... and cake. And the best source for finding those places are of course the locals. One of them brought me here: Drink, Shop & Do. On the outside it doesn't really...
citizenM London Bankside
Of course, having your own apartment (which I just found!) in London is great. But I must admit, that I'm also a bit sad that I won't be staying in this hotel anymore. CitizenM has been my home away from home for the last week. And what a home it has been! Are you...
