  • SIENA – More than a color

    Talk about serendipity. Over the long Ascension weekend my husband’s company gave him a car to test for a minimum stretch of 1000 km, and I had always dreamed of going to Tuscany. So we packed our finest clothes to go with the full-option BMW 5 series (amazing how sudden wealth changes people 😉 )…

  • Daytrip destinations – Achensee

    Only one and a half hours’ drive south of Munich, on the Austrian side of the Alps, lies Achensee. Worth a trip in all seasons. If you’re travelling with kids, don’t miss the small horse-donkey-alpaca farm, not far from the cable car.

  • All packed?

    Yes, we’re finally going on vacation. I feel pretty safe making that information public because, even if somehow (God forbid!) thieves were to hit on our home while we’re away, there’d be nothing left for them to steal. We’ve packed it all. Seriously. Even the laptops, for the kids’ entertainment, toys, books, more food than…

  • Married with children… and traveling

    Wow, there is nothing that can bring about a change of perspective like traveling does. If you ever feel caged, depressed, trapped inside the everlasting dullness of your daily routine and hating it, take a trip. And don’t forget your kids. Somewhere, between kilometre 132 and 158, after you have changed two diapers full of…
