I can’t believe it has already been 4 weeks since I’ve spent my afternoons in the hammocks by the white beach of the Park Hyatt Abu Dhabi Hotel and Villas. When it comes to my travel bucket list, there are certain items on the list that are destinations in general, while others are specific hotels….
The past 3 days, I’ve been somewhat m.i.a. due to an amazing Easter weekend on Mallorca with the entire family (17 people). The internet at our finca in the hills was beyond terrible and wouldn’t even allow all of us to log in at the same time. However, for some reason I loved being offline for a…
In a very strange way, Abu Dhabi has stolen my heart. To be honest, I can’t tell you why, but after my 3rd trip to the Emirate state, I am more sure than ever and in my mind, I am already planning round 4. To me, Abu Dhabi is extremely interesting…
For the last post from Abu Dhabi, I wanted to share my personal highlights from the trip, all round up in one big post! After a week in the city, I now love it even more than I did after our first visit. Almost 2 years ago, we visited Dubai for 6 days, prior to heading…
Even though I am currently in full-on Milano mode from fashion week, I still have some Abu Dhabi posts for you guys, so hopefully you won’t mind all the switching back and forth! After sharing our first stop in Abu Dhabi with you guys (read the full review HERE), of course I also wanted to write…

For the first part of our stay in Abu Dhabi, we decided on the Shangri-La Qaryat Al Beri, which is located across the canal from the stunning Sheikh Zayed Mosque. The second I saw the view on the hotel photos, I was sold. Plus, the entire hotel is styled in Arabic decor, which is something…
For the first time since I can remember (read: in my life), I decided that I wanted to spend my birthday away from home. Somewhere warm. With a beach near by! Said and done, in December we booked our flights and hotels for sunny Abu Dhabi. We are already at our second hotel here, as…
The Middle East is a popular destination, mainly for travelers heading to Dubai or Abu Dhabi. However, neighbouring the United Arab Emirates on the South, beautiful Oman stretches along the Gulf. From stunning resorts along to coast to lush Wadis, a red sand desert and impressive mountains, the country has a lot to offer and…
Yesterday I turned 29. Old? Not sure! Happy? Definitely! To celebrate my birthday this year, Mike and I decided to hop on a plane and spend 3 days in Istanbul. Our last visit 4 years ago for Easter and we absolutely loved the crazy busy city, which is why we decided to come back for…
