Portugal Travel Diary | 4 day Lisbon girls trip

| Leave a Comment

At the end of October I had been to Lisbon with a friend from my former study International Business (IBS). We were planning to visit a friend of ours who is studying there for a few months. Yanneke and I flew (standby) to Lisbon. This 4 day trip is for me number 4 of 2019 and my 3rd time in Lisbon. As I have said in many posts, Lisbon is my favorite city trip destination in Europe so far. The many colorful streets with sweet little restaurants keep surprising me. The follow up cities are Valencia and Porto for me. In 2015 I went there as a study trip (and during that time, my “cabin crew dreams” started). In 2017 I went there solo. [Read more…]

Lisbon is my favorite city trip destination in Europe as I have probably told you before. The colorful streets and all those cute places keep surprising me. I bought this cute dot dress in the sale of Loavies. I wanted to bring a nice new dress to Lisbon last minute, so I chose this one. Where I am standing here, is at Pink Street near Cais do Sodre. This colored street is a hotspot in Lisbon, where many people take pictures. [Read more…]

A few days ago I was in Lisbon – trip number 4 of 2019. I went to Lisbon with a school friend for 4 days to visit another school friend – this was, by the way, my 3rd time in Lisbon. Lisbon genuinely remains my favorite European city alongside the ones in my own country. (By the way, I didn’t notice the mop until I was editing, haha.) I ordered this pink dress at Godly. When I arrived from the cold Netherlands in warmer Portugal, I replaced my tights and sneakers for my favorite travel shoes. By the way – Yanneke took the pictures of this outfit at one of the cute narrow streets near our Airbnb. [Read more…]

Spain Travel Diary | Second 3 day trip to Valencia

| Leave a Comment

At the end of last month I went to Valencia for the second time. This beautiful city remains a nice hotspot in my eyes for sea, city, shopping and delicious food. I went there with a colleague. We arrived halfway through the afternoon and went there by Standby seats (flying for a reduced price for flight attendants). The first day was relaxed. After the flight we decided to change clothes and head for the boulevard to eat and drink for a long time. [Read more…]

Spain Travel Diary | 4 day Seville trip

| Leave a Comment

Earlier this month, I went on an ‘if place available’ trip with a friend from work. We went to Seville from Eindhoven. This was also my first trip of this year. After I had worked that day myself, I had changed my outfit, scored my suitcase and left with Tess. After a nice flight with nice crew, we went by taxi to the city center of Seville. Due to the enormously crowded ‘holy week’ (a week of festivities, which we knew little about at the time), [Read more…]

Japan travel diary | Solo trip to Tokyo part 4

| 1 Comment

During my last days in Japan I did not take many pictures. I had done almost everything I wanted to do. The 7th day of my Tokyo trip, my new Swedish and French travel friends suggested to join them to Hakone to go running around 6 in the morning. I was quite tired, so I refused and went to Tokyo tower later, because I wanted to see it up close. It was nice and sunny, so I walked through Tokyo with a happy and satisfied feeling. [Read more…]

If you haven’t checked out day 3 and 4 yet, you can click this link: Part 2. Day 5 I really wanted to see the view of Tokyo. Once I sat down at the coffee bar of my hostel at the beginning of the afternoon, I got to know a new solo traveler named Hana (which I eventually hung out with a lot during this trip, and joined me to Shinjuku.

For those who have not yet read the first travel diary of my solo trip, click on this link: Part 1 – The 2nd morning that I woke up in Tokyo I would meet up with a friend of mine (Arisa), which I, like Anna, know for at least 5 years already. Both today and tomorrow, I would not be alone during this officially solo trip. We walked from Shibuya to Harajuku because we planned to explore that part this day. Arisa would take me to some cool parts in Tokyo.  [Read more…]

I really enjoy writing about my travel experiences and sharing photos with you. Perhaps this will inspire you to make that solo (dream) trip anyway. I would like to show you my travel diary to create an image about how I have experienced this solo trip. The very moment that I type this 1st piece, I’m on my way to Tokyo on my first intercontinental flight. After 7 years, the moment is there that I fly to this destination, something that has been a dream for years but now comes true  – 9 days to Tokyo, solo. [Read more…]
