13 praktische reistips voor je eerste city trip naar Athene

Een stedentrip Athene is zo leuk! Oude ruïnes, zonnig weer en het lekkerste Griekse eten, wat wil je nog meer? Maar voordat je begint te dromen over je eerste blik op de Akropolis of een route uitstippelt langs gezellige cafés in Plaka (ik heb een aparte post met de leukste bezienswaardigheden), zijn er nog wat handige en praktische tips die je reis net even wat makkelijker en leuker kunnen maken. Zoals welke tijd van het jaar Athene op z’n best is, hoe je je het beste kunt verplaatsen, en hoe laat je in een restaurant moet reserveren om samen met de locals te eten.

Dus hierbij de reistips die ik graag had willen weten voor mijn eerste trip naar Athene.

City guide, Stedentrip, Europa, Rusland, St Petersburg

My 8 Favorite Things to Do and See in Kyoto

Kunst & Cultuur, Azië, City guide, Stedentrip, Japan, Kyoto

After the first couple of days in Tokyo, we continue our trip through Japan in Kyoto. By now the worst of that terrible jet-lag (that never seems to end) is behind us. And we're getting better at finding our way in this country that feels so structured and organised,...

St Petersburg Guide (Part 1): First Impressions & Getting a Russian Visa

City guide, Stedentrip, Europa, Rusland, St Petersburg

After six days in St Petersburg, I’ve only scratched the surface of what Russia is like. I am under no illusion that you can get to know a country this big and diverse by visiting just one city. But it is a great introduction to Russia and I leave hungry for more. Not...

10 Food & Shopping Hotspots You Need to Know in Gothenburg

City guide, Stedentrip, Europa, Eten & Drinken, Zweden

The woman behind the counter looks confused when I apologetically respond to her question in English. It's not the first time this happens. Not that the people in Gothenburg don't speak English, which they do perfectly, but with the way I look they often think I'm a...

A Lazy Person’s Guide to Melbourne

Australië, City guide, Stedentrip, Oceanië

I leave Melbourne thinking 'We should try this again'. It isn't love at first sight like I experienced in Sydney. And with all the high expectations I had of this city, I'm feeling a bit disappointed. But the truth is, I was tired. After traveling non-stop for 6...

Picture Perfect Ghent & Falling in Love with Hotel 1898 The Post

België, City guide, Stedentrip, Europa, Gent, Hotels

This is a story about how my family and I visited Ghent in Belgium and couldn't get ourselves to leave the hotel. If you've been reading this blog for a while you know that 1) I have a thing for beautiful boutique hotels and 2) I usually have a long list of all the...

Azië, City guide, Stedentrip, Maleisië

Trying to kill some time on my flight from New Zealand to Malaysia, I start thinking about how I want to spend the coming days. And I realise how little I know about this country, and Kuala Lumpur - my first destination - in particular. I’ve seen pictures of those...

Wat te doen in Lissabon: 10x bezienswaardigheden & shoppen tips

Europa, Lissabon, Portugal, Stedentrip

Het is mijn eerste city trip naar Lissabon. Op basis van mijn vorige post zou je denken dat ik alleen maar lekker heb zitten eten in Lissabon (probeer jij maar eens nee te zeggen tegen een verse, warme pastel de nata). Maar deze stad heeft meer te bieden dan het...

Ultimate Guide to My Favorite Places to Go, Eat & Stay in Singapore

Azië, City guide, Stedentrip, Singapore

I'm spending the last three days of my three month trip in Singapore. Three days and three nights before I'm flying back to Amsterdam. It's a strange thought that once I leave Singapore, I'll have to start thinking about everyday life things again. Work, cleaning my...

10 Amazing Things to Do in Marrakech

Afrika, City guide, Stedentrip, Marokko

My taxi driver is singing softly while we're trying to beat the Marrakech evening rush hour traffic. As we're passing the different city walls into the Medina (old city), the city is getting more lively. I hear the call to prayer in the distance, but it can't compete...

Puente Romano: a luxury foodie destination in Marbella

Stedentrip, Europa, Hotels, Spanje

The timing is perfect. While everybody around me is turning up the heating in their house, storing their summer clothes to replace them with warm, comfy winter clothes, I am getting reading for a bit of extra sunshine. As much as I like autumn, when you're being...

Leuke restaurants in Lissabon: 14x lekker eten & koffie tips

Eten & Drinken, Europa, Lissabon, Portugal, Stedentrip

Een van mijn grootste uitdagingen voor deze stedentrip naar Lissabon is om niet helemaal uitgeput thuis te komen. Ik wil altijd te veel doen als ik een stad voor de eerste keer bezoek. Dus hoe zorg je ervoor dat je genoeg pauzes neemt tussen het bezoeken van alle...

The Warehouse Hotel: Industrial Chic in Singapore

Azië, Stedentrip, Hotels, Singapore

The Warehouse Hotel in Singapore may look brand new, but there's a lot of history here. Yes, the hotel opened its doors earlier this year, but the heritage building - built in 1895 - has had several other purposes before it was turned into the modern design hotel it...

Photos that will make you want to visit Malaysia’s Food Capital

Azië, City guide, Stedentrip, Maleisië

Visiting Penang in Malaysia wasn't really planned. At least not when I started my three-month trip. I knew I would end my journey in Singapore, but when that moment came closer and closer I still didn't know where I would be the week before. The original plan - as I...

The Ultimate Sydney Brunch & Coffee Guide

Australië, City guide, Stedentrip, Eten & Drinken, Oceanië, Sydney

Sydney or Melbourne? Every time I meet people in Australia it's one of the first questions they ask. Which city do you prefer? There's clearly a friendly competition going on here. Before this trip I thought the answer would be Melbourne. For...

The ultimate Japanese experience: staying at a traditional ryokan in Kyoto

Azië, Stedentrip, Japan, Kyoto, Hotels, Unieke reiservaringen

"And this is Charlie Chaplin and his wife, having a tea ceremony with my aunt in this room." I'm looking at the black & white picture and love that even though she has probably showed this to many of her guests over the years, you can tell that she also...

Getting the Best View of Sydney at Shangri-La Hotel

Australië, Stedentrip, Oceanië, Hotels, Sydney

I think it’s safe to say that about 99% of what I know about Australian food (or maybe even Australia in general) comes from watching MasterChef Australia religiously for several years. You’d almost forget that those chefs you see on television are also cooking...

Video: How to Spend 4 Days in Yogyakarta

Azië, City guide, Stedentrip, Indonesië, Yogyakarta

Blog posts with lists, like 8 interesting things to do & see in Yogyakarta can be practical when you're planning a visit to Java, Indonesia. But it doesn't really show you what the city looks and sounds like, the people, the weather, how impressive some of the...

8 Interesting Things to Do & See in Yogyakarta

Azië, City guide, Stedentrip, Indonesië, Yogyakarta

After two weeks in Japan, I'm starting my three weeks Indonesia in Yogyakarta. What a transition! The traffic with what seems like millions of motorcycles, the heat, the squat toilets (toilets are becoming a theme on this trip), the smell of food, and men asking...

Tokyo Vlog: Favorite Things to Do & Places to Eat

Azië, City guide, Stedentrip, Eten & Drinken, Japan, Tokyo

If you think Tokyo is just another big city, comparable to New York and London, then you're up for a big surprise. This city is different! It's organized and chaotic, calm and loud, crazy and overwhelming at the same time. As much as you hear about Tokyo, you have to...

Why you should visit Helsinki in 2017

City guide, Stedentrip, Europa, Finland, Helsinki

Helsinki sure knows how to welcome their visitors. "Nobody in their right mind would come to Helsinki in November. Except you, you badass. Welcome." I actually missed the famous airport sign that went viral when I arrived in November, but it's something that I...

Starting my Journey in Style at the Great Northern Hotel

Stedentrip, Europa, Londen, Hotels, Verenigd Koninkrijk

That's the problem with making travel plans too long in advance. Things change. But then how could I have known that three weeks after I booked my return ticket London - Japan, I would come up with the brilliant idea to turn 2 weeks Japan into a three month trip?...

Two days in Sucre, the most beautiful city in Bolivia

Bolivia, City guide, Stedentrip, Zuid Amerika

So you were killing some time browsing through Pinterest and travel websites, saw pictures of the beautiful salt flats of Bolivia and said to yourself "I must go there". I get it. I've been there. But then there's only so much time you can spend on a salty...

Flying in Style to Helsinki (the video)

Stedentrip, Europa, Finland, Helsinki, Unieke reiservaringen

Some people will escape the winter by flying to a tropical island. Others (that's me) fly to countries where the days are shorter and the temperatures even lower. Helsinki may not be the first city that comes to mind for a city trip right now, but I loved it. It...

The New York Edition

Stedentrip, New York, Noord Amerika, Hotels, Verenigde Staten

It's not every day that I sleep in a hotel where celebrities like Lenny Kravitz and famous fashion bloggers were staying that same week. And where people like Leonardo DiCaprio and Alexa Chung attended the launch party a year ago. It may sound a bit intimidating, but...

How to spend a weekend in Brighton (with video)

City guide, Stedentrip, Europa, Verenigd Koninkrijk

Brighton is the perfect day trip from London. Only an hour by train, there's a beach, a fun pier, great food... and yet I had only been once. I was already planning another trip when I received an invite to spend the weekend at the new Brighton Harbour Hotel with some...

Visiting Amsterdam like a local (vlog)

Amsterdam, City guide, Stedentrip, Europa, Nederland

Time for another travel vlog! In Amsterdam this time. And yes... still awkward. But as a reward for stepping outside of my comfort zone, I decided to buy a decent vlogging camera: the Canon G7 X MARK II. New gadgets always help. Apparently this is what many of...

Inside London’s Hidden Sights: Clapham South Shelter

Kunst & Cultuur, Stedentrip, Europa, Londen, Verenigd Koninkrijk

I often have to remind myself to look up when I'm exploring a city. But sometimes a city's best kept secrets are hidden underground. For two years I was living right above an important part of London history: the deep-level shelters at Clapham South. Built during...

Weekend in Porto: 6 experiences you don’t want to miss

City guide, Stedentrip, Europa, Portugal

I'm on a plane to Porto and I finally have some time to read the blog posts and travel stories that I quickly saved on my iPad before I left. This feels like the worst planned trip and I'm pretty sure Jess is feeling exactly the same. We've both been super busy...

My 10 Favorite Things to Do in LA

City guide, Stedentrip, Los Angeles, Noord Amerika, Verenigde Staten

Visiting Los Angeles reminded me of my very first trip to New York. I was so excited to finally see the city with my own eyes. Realizing that everything I thought I knew about it was through watching movies and television shows. How much is actually real? It's the...
