Where to stay in Chiang Mai: 4 Boutique Hotels
Tourists and digital nomads have clearly discovered Chiang Mai, Thailand’s second city. Mostly known for the over 300 Buddhist temples, these days you’ll be just as impressed by the number of hotels, restaurants and trendy coffee shops. They’re everywhere. Finding a place to stay isn't difficult, but the question is: where do you want to stay? What part of the city? Since Chiang Mai doesn’t have a public transport system like you'll find in Bangkok, you'll want a location from where it's easy...

My four Arabian nights – Part 1: Riyadh
Shopping for an abaya and headscarf in London. Not really how I had pictured my shopping experience when I moved here. But sometimes business trips bring you to unexpected places and for this one I needed some additional clothing. It’s funny how quickly you get used...

Songs from a room…or public square
I don't really get the UK holiday system with its Bank Holidays yet. So I'm not exactly sure why, but this weekend we had the Monday off as well. And the weather was perfect (unlike today) which made it even better. It turned out to be a weekend full of music. On...
London on two wheels
Cycling in London is not as easy as riding a bicycle. When you grow up in the Netherlands, as a child you learn how to walk, talk and ride a bicycle (not necessarily in that order). Everybody rides their bike to get around. There are even more bikes than people. So...
