A Winter’s Day in London: Big Ben, Memories & Magic

Posted on January 23 — a special date I hold close to my heart. Today would have been my father’s 70th birthday — the man who inspired my very first trip to London back in 2009. Every time I return to this city, I carry his love for it with me. 
There’s something undeniably enchanting about London i…

A Perfect Day Walk in Hyde Park

Christmas Day was the perfect day to walk in the park, especially because our hotel was so close to Hyde Park - which offers a refreshing escape from the city’s hustle and bustle. As one of the most famous Royal Parks, Hyde Park boasts over 350 acres of lush greenery, tranquil lakes, and iconic landmarks.

One Day in Braga

It was my first time visiting Braga's charming historic center. My thoughts about it are not very different from the other Portuguese cities: the wine is great, the food is amazing and the architecture is beautiful. I love discovering old churches too and there's a lot of constructions there from the gothic and baroque periods worth a visit. 

We took the train from Porto - São Bento Station - and after +/- 1 hour trip we got there. Smooth and easy, I'm definitely going back to spend at least 2 more days strolling around the oldest town of the country.

Blue Skies & White Wine in Porto
