Feeling like Millionaires in Munich

Here we are – at the Nymphenburg Palace just on the outskirts of central Munich Germany, and it is massive. And I mean really, really grand and massive.  In the immediate area is a beer garden and restaurants, and an area you could spend a whole day exploring. Munich has so much to see and […]

Munich Is So Much More Than Just Beer Halls

After our mad dash from Prague to Munich (you can read about that here) we arrived late in the evening. We divided our Munich stay into two parts. We wanted to be central to see the inner city, and then we wanted to head out of the city to explore that area, so I will […]

Escape the crowds – visit Prague in Winter

Prague has always been a city I have dreamed of visiting, and I am so glad we are finally here, walking these historical cobblestone streets. We arrived with the GPS driving me ‘smack bang’ through the old historical town, and right up to the hill overlooking the city.  Oh, it was so beautiful.  We were […]

The Golden Key to Prague

The sun is setting outside of our window, and the sky starts to twinkle with the lights of the historical town, and Petrin Tower is lit in the distance on the nearby hill. It is here I sit at my window and am in awe of how silent the evening is, yet we are in […]

Positively Poznan Poland at Puro Hotel

The moment we walked into the PURO Hotel Poznan Poland, Explorason loved it. It might have been close to midnight, but being an ultra modern and tastefully decorated property, really jumped out at us.  In fact, it is brand spanking new. Less than a year old, and is filled with an eclectic mix of all things new […]

Positively Poznan Poland – Pools, Playing and Publicity

Positively Porta Posnania in Poznan Poland

We are in Poznan, Poland.  I never in my wildest dreams even thought that when we started our world trip in 2012 we would still be traveling now – in our 3rd year. Neither did I think we would be in Poland. We flew in last night to Warsaw, and then took a train to […]

Add Budapest to your Bucket List
