I fotspåren av jättetroll och pittoreska Dragør

I fotspåren av jättetroll och pittoreska Dragør

En annan idé för en utflykt runt Köpenhamn. Leta efter Troll av danske konstnären Thomas Dambo, som skapar skulpturer och installationer av återvunnet material. Troll är en del av ett sagoprojekt som kallas “Den stora historien om små människor och jättetroll”. Det finns för närvarande 12 troll på olika platser runt Köpenhamn. För att hitta dem kan man använda kartan på denna sida (på engelska). Där hittar man också information om hur man får till en riktig Trolljakt. Man kan…

The valley of the River Ter and Lake Panta de Sau

If you spend your holidays in Catalonia and you are temporarily fed up with the beaches on the Costa Brava and the city stench of Barcelona, ​​or you just want to enjoy the beautiful views away from the beaten tourist routes, we recommend a trip through the Ter valley, especially around the dam Panta de Sau.Initially, I marked quite a lot of viewpoints on the map, but when planning the trip it turned out that it was not that easy…

Montserrat – a place of worship and mountain hiking

Montserrat – a place of worship and mountain hiking

Montserrat is a mountain range in Catalonia, located several dozen kilometers north of Barcelona. The name of the massif comes from jagged mountain peaks, and the highest peak, Sant Jeroni, rises to 1,237m above sea level. On the slopes of the massif there is a Benedictine monastery, the holiest site of Catalans, the Sanctuary of the Black Madonna of Montserrat. Monserrat is therefore both a place of pilgrimage in honor of the Mother of God, and a place ideal for…

Barcelona with kids – what to see and do

Barcelona with kids – what to see and do

Me and Tomasz have been to Barcelona many times. Before meeting there in 2008, I studied Spanish for a month in one of Barcelona’s language schools, and Tomasz lived there for 6 months with work. Later, we visited this city together twice, and Tomasz a few more times on business. So it is easy to guess that we know Barcelona quite well and we have probably seen almost everything that can be seen there. So this time we did not…

Visiting Salvador Dali

Visiting Salvador Dali

We had planned a trip to Figueres, where the famous Teatre – Museu Dali is located, for a long time. Originally we wanted to take the train from Barcelona but after checking the train ticket prices we found it cheaper to rent a car (for tickets for our 4 from Barcelona to Figueres we would have paid over 100 €). So, as a result, we went there during our week in Pineda de Mar (about that in another post). Teatre…

Holiday on Costa Brava

Holiday on Costa Brava

After a week in Barcelona, ​​it was time for a little more relax by the sea (or the pool). To be honest, it took us some time to find the right place, because we wanted a hotel with a swimming pool, breakfast included in the price, close to the beach, with good ratings and a fairly normal price. The requirements were normal, but unfortunately it quickly turned out that we would not find anything interesting, for example in Tossa de…

London with kids – walking along the Thames

London with kids – walking along the Thames

At the end of May we spent 4 days in London. In addition to Warner Bros Studios, places related to Paddington the bear and several museums, we also had to see the very center of the city. We were really lucky with the weather, because on the day of our long walk along the Thames, the sun was shining all day long:) The very center of London made a great impression on us and we liked it much more than…

In the footsteps of Paddington Bear, Little Venice and Camden Town

In the footsteps of Paddington Bear, Little Venice and Camden Town

If it wasn’t for the children and their love for Paddington, we would probably never have reached Little Venice or Camden Town. And that would be a shame, because these are very pleasant and cozy neighborhoods 🙂 As you know, the name of the famous bear comes from Paddington railway station. It was where the Brown family found the lost bear cub and decided to take care of it. At the station itself you will find a Paddington bench and…
