Why Copenhagen is the best city in the world on a sunny summer day

Image
Have you ever visited Copenhagen in the summer? I will tell you this... there is no place like Copenhagen on a sunny summer day. You can always recognize ice the Nordic people when you go traveling. With every little glimpse of sun, they start smiling and sit in it with their face turned towards the sun. Now imagine Copenhagen, approximately one million Nordic people all feeling the urge to do this when a sunray stroke them. It creates this quite unique vibe of hygge mixed with the smell of summer. Now, I know you know all the famous places to go in Copenhagen, like Nyhavn and Christania. but do you know the secret places? So where can you go and find this very specific summer-hygge vibe and danish mellow-ness?

Are you feeling the blues and missing excitment and adventure in your life? are you longing for nature and exploring the wilderness that this gorgeous world has to offer? Why not go to one of these places and be bedazzled with the rough beauty that Mother Nature has to offer you. 9. Rotorua, North Island, New Zealand Rotorua has magnificent nature. It is famous for its volcanic activity and for how its landscape has been shaped and colored by it. Check out the parks and make time to visit one of the area’s many hot springs.

And while you’re in town, Rotorua is famous for its Maori villages and cultural performances which is a fun experience if you do not mind the artificiality of being a touris...

4 Top Attractions in Asia

Planning a trip to Asia and just wondering where to go? I've done the same thing many many times. That's why I have made a short list of some of my favorite attractions around Asia just for you to pick from. Here are my favorite Asian Attractions 1. Angkor Wat, Siem Reap, Cambodia The main reason for visiting is, of course, Angkor Wat.  A lot of us have a childhood longing for an Indiana Jones adventure and to maybe fall upon a hidden treasure. There are different means of transportation to get there and around, depending on your needs and sense of adventure. You can take a tuk-tuk for the day. They have fixed day-rates and you either do the big or small circuit trip. The small trip includes Angkor Wat, Bayan and 4 other temples, including the Tombraider temple. Meanwhile, the big trip takes you to a lot of smaller temples that are less crowded.  You can also rent a bicycle and enjoy the trip at your own pace. It might be a good idea to get a tour guide if you ...

So there is a difference between like and love!  I like cheap flight tickets but I love a free upgrade to first class. But I love cheap flight tickets... That is because you haven't had a free upgrade to first class! Doh!! I'm going to try something new this time around! I went on vacation and I didn't love it! I didn't hate it but like they say in 10 things I hate about you; I know that you can be overwhelmed and you can be underwhelmed but can you ever just be whelmed?  YES! You can when you visit Poznan! I didn't have a bad time, I just didn't find the city as charming or lovely as the tours and google searches promised me. After a long weekend, I just felt... whelmed! Therefore I have taken the liberty of writing my own version of 10 things I hate about you, Poznan!  Love it or leave it! Here it goes:  1. I hate that your biggest tourist attraction is two mechanical billy goats banging their heads together on top of city hall at...
