For the past couple of years each time I’ve travelled somewhere I’ve thought about blogging about it. In fact, I’ve done more than think about it. I pack up my heavy DSLR and my iPad (one of the old, not so ‘air’ versions) and carry them about taking photos and making notes. But something has always stopped me blogging about it when I get home. Perhaps the novelty has worn off and once I’m back I just want to slip back into the routine. Or maybe I just don’t know if anyone actually wants to read about my life other than the creative parts (because let’s be honest. I’m not all rainbows and sprinkles and parties… unfortunately)
So I’m coming up to a week away in Berlin. I’ve heard so many amazing things about this city and with it being my first time there I’ve been reading so many blog posts and travel guides to make the most of our few days. I get so much out of other people’s experiences that it got me thinking. To be more comfortable with posting about my holiday I need to make it useful and informative and this coincides with a DIY travel section that I’ve been thinking about adding for a while.
Like most people I know we book our own flights, find amazing Airbnb apartments and explore the location by bike or public transport. We get lost, we find ourselves in slightly unnerving situations and we rely on locals and our terrible language skills (I use the word skills very lightly) to get by. Sometime’s it can be stressful, but it’s always an adventure.
We travel to places where being a vegan is unheard of, which means we have to adapt and source local supplies so that Alex doesn’t become malnourished on what is meant to be a relaxing time away. But actually instead of becoming a chore this makes the holiday better. Rather than sitting in restaurants for half our time away, we find local ingredients, cook regional recipes (adapted for the boy of course) and find the most beautiful and amazing places to enjoy them. We do also scout out any vegetarian/vegan restaurants of course. Sometimes you do just want to be wined and dined!
I’ll be collecting and curating all of this info (as well as what to wear, city highlights and tons of photos) into comprehensive travel guides for each place we visit from now on and perhaps going back through collected information from previous city’s. But for now let’s focus on Berlin.

Oh my goodness, that cake carrier. So cute! And I love those ice cream cone wrappers. I’m so excited to hear about your travels. Nothing beats reading about actual life experiences. (:

I’m not a vegan but a dear friend of mine is and Kopps in Berlin comes highly recommended; apparently you must try the nut-milk cheeses they have there (http://www.kopps-berlin.de/?lang=en). Enjoy! x

I also like to travel light. Ideally, just collect a small backpack with all the necessary things. I also have my own life hacks that help make the trip more memorable. You know that now there are a lot of cool club cards that give you nice bonuses due to the accumulation of cards? They should be carefully understood, since I had both a pleasant experience and not quite, but this information https://help-center.pissedconsumer.com/sapphire-resorts-how-to-cancel-sell-timeshare/ helped me solve everything

I try to travel without extra luggage. Light is always easier and more comfortable. After all, you have to collect new emotions, not things. I advise you to learn more about the Ariel Emrani experience here

Thank you for such great travel tips. I often travel around the world and always prefer a comfortable flight https://voyagu.com/destinations/business-class-flights-to-africa-mozambique/ Therefore, I fly only business class, it is very convenient that you can book tickets in advance.

I look for healthier and more sustainable alternatives to our current lifestyles by researching what people around the world are doing. Recently I was in Edionton. There I rented a car from 14CARS.com and explored the local culture, cuisine and lifestyle.
Pia says
I always use a travel care kit. Also, I always rent a car when I fly to another city. Even if it is not a business trip, but just a vacation. I like to travel to new cities by car. I usually use this service, because there are good cars and rental points in every city. https://rental24h.com/usa/san-diego-airport/under-25

Thank you for your advice. I also want to share one. I usually only travel by car and it’s the best way for me to get around. I used to look for car rental companies for a long time and spend a lot of time on it, but now I only rent a car at airports because it’s really the most reliable place where there is a large selection of cars. I recently rented a luxury car at Paphos airport https://airportpaphos.com/car-rental/luxury. I have also rented SUVs and regular cars many times during my travels and have been satisfied every time.

Traveling can be an exciting and enriching experience, but it can also be quite challenging and expensive. To make the most of your trip, it’s essential to know some travel hacks that can help you save money, time, and energy. One of the most significant benefits of modern technology is the abundance of information available online, including information about tourist attractions like the Library of Celsus. Websites like https://www.discoverybit.com/directory-travel/listing/library-of-celsus/ provide all the Library of Celsus facts and Celsus library history, making it easier for travelers to plan their visit and gain a deeper appreciation of this iconic site. By taking advantage of travel hacks and using online resources, you can make your next trip more enjoyable and memorable while staying within your budget.
