Bonjour Marrakech! Yesterday, my mom, sister and I arrived in Marrakech for a girls trip. Even though it is my 3rd time in the Moroccan city, it is my first time really exploring and vacationing. The first two stays were fairly short and for work, so this time around we are on a mission to…
If you visit Paris, the typical croissant and café au lait is more or less obligatory at some point during your trip, but for most days, I personally prefer a bowl of granola with almond milk, eggs and avocado toast or porridge. Luckily, there are plenty of amazing options for a healthy breakfast & lunch…
I travel a lot and I think it is safe to say that I have seen a ton of stunning hotels. Some huge with more than 600 rooms, some incredibly luxurious and fancy. Others stylish and brand new, and then there are little hidden gems that I stumble upon by accident. The Hotel Providence Paris…
When in Paris… it is time to bring out the Chanel slingback heels! It doesn’t get much more Parisienne than that in the shoe department, if you ask me, so of course I had to pack my beloved slingbacks for our quick trip to Paris last week. I totally splurged last year but am so glad to…
Just before heading to Paris earlier this week, Kathi and I stopped by La Mercerie in the 9th district for some coffee and a croissant to share. To get in the le mood Parisienne, if you know what I mean. When Mike and I first came to Vienna 9 years ago, we lived in the 9th…

And when…

During our travels to Mauritius, we decided to end the trip with 3 relaxing days in a hotel after having spent the first half of the trip in a house together with…
When we booked our vacation to escape freezing Austria for some vitamin D in Mauritius, the last thing that was on our mind was a cyclone and daily down pours. There are a lot of things you can change, but the weather is definitely not one of them. We’ve been on the island for a…
I used to be a firm believer that vacations needed to be far, far away (preferably overseas) in order to be a real vacation. And that at least 2 weeks away from home were necessary in order to feel relaxed. Over the years, that has changed… “Jobs fill your pocket, adventures fill your soul” Nowadays,…
Welcome to my first travel tip of the year (and ever, for that matter). For a long time now, I have been wanting to add a new category to my blog to feature more travel-related content aside from my personal hotel reviews and impressions from my trips. Traveling is one of my biggest passions and…
