W Amsterdam hotel review

The city of Amsterdam has long been on my bucket list. Although it’s just a 2 hour train ride I never managed to fit it into my schedule – until A’s birthday last weekend. We took a short break to visit Amsterdam and chose the infamous W for our almost-staycation. Read on for more about the craziest room I’ve stayed in so far and why service does make the difference, again.

Köln/Bonn Airport Business Lounge review

Because I fly out of Cologne (Köln/Bonn airport) very often, I get to visit the Airport Business lounge at times. While the experience was usually very mediocre, I think they stepped up recently. Here is my short review of my last visit for you.

JW Marriott Venice Hotel Review

Venice has been on our bucket list for quite a while now and so has been the JW Marriott Resort and Spa. For a short summer getaway, I usually don’t think about the romantic city with its small alleys, canals and loads of tourists. However, the JW Marriott is situated on its own private island – Isola delle Rose and is a stunning hideout located right in the lagoon ahead San Marco square. A & I took a three night vacay and ended up going to the city just once…

The perfect travel kit to sleep on a plane

Sleeping on a plane is not an easy thing for me, despite having found the perfect playlist for it a while ago. I find it equally hard to sleep in a new hotel room the first night – especially if there is jetlag involved. While I never take sleeping pills, I do rely on tea or other natural remedies to wind down easier while travelling. No wonder I was thrilled, when I found a sleeping remedy kit by the natural beauty brand This Works. The price seemed fair to me so I gave it a try and found it works extremly well for me.

The best restaurants in Gran Canaria

The island of Gran Canaria is part of the archipelago of the Canary Islands, belonging to Spain. A short 4,5 hours flight from Germany, geographically located in Africa, the seven islands attract more and more tourists each year. As destinations like Tunis, Turkey and Morocco have increased in tensions, this European destination gets more popular in recent years.

Historically, the tourism here has been on the lower end but in recent years some very promising devolopments took place such as the Salobre resort, making Gran Canaria a spot for more lifestyle-savvy travelers as well. I want to share my personal best suggestions for restaurants …
