Dear friends,
I now it has been a long time since you last heard from me, but I have been busy (to be able to travel, as we all know, you need to have money, and to have enough money, you need to work, and work takes your time). But! In a few days I am going on a new adventure and I will do my best to keep you informed about it as it happens! This will be a new experience for me, so don’t be very harsh if I am not able to achieve much (in posting about my adventures every single day during the trip). As to where I am going – next blog post will tell you 🙂
I will also post many photos in my Instagram account (you can follow me, if you want – the link to my Instagram account is in the Contact me section of this page, on the right hand side, or simply follow this link:

I hope you enjoy following me during my travels!
As a very wise person once said, and as we all know so well, life is what happens while we are making plans…
I know I promised a new article about two books about travel, which, in fact is not ready yet, but is in preparation… I hope I will be ready to publish it here really soon.
And as I also promised, I will have a small piece about another wonderful city in The Netherlands, Utrecht, which I have visited already 3 times, all three because of a music festival held there every year (I promised I will tell you a little bit more about this specific type of travel, festival tourism, and what you should have in mind). I am not making any promises as to when it will be here, but I just want to assure you, I haven’t forgotten it.
And last, but not least, as time goes by, it is getting near my next trip. I will be coming back to my most beloved spot in The Netherlands, the city of Leiden, and I hope I will have some new places and ideas to share with you about this wonderful town, in case you decide to visit it some day (and I hope you do, because it is really worth it!).
So, again, stay tuned 🙂
Hello, everyone!
It has been a while since I last posted something here, and I am sorry for that. I promise this will change very soon. I will be publishing an article about another city in The Netherlands – in fact, THE CITY in The Netherlands, Amsterdam, and some of its not so well known treasures. I hope it will be published till the end of this week.
I am also preparing a small piece on another passion of mine – books about travels. I will tell you about two of the most wonderful books I have read – Paris Letters, by Janice Macleod and Lost Girls by Jennifer Baggett, Holly C. Corbett, and Amanda Pressner. I hope I will be ready with it till the end of this month.
And last but not least, I have a trip planned for the end of next week. I will write and publish here all about it when I come back. It will be an example of my most loved kind of travel – festival tourism. Music is a very good reason to discover new places. And make new friends.
So stay posted!
Hi, guys!
My very first article has been published on Travelicious!!! I am so excited!
It is about one of my favorite places in the whole wide world – town of Leiden in The Netherlands.

Besides writing, or should I say, more than writing, I love reading. I learned to read at a really young age, years before I went to school. The very first book I read on my own was Pippi Longstocking, by Astrid Lindgren. This was my first favorite book. My father, God rest his soul, read it to me twice in a row and after I asked him to go at it a third time, he said it was high time I learned to read myself.
Many years and many books later, I started writing myself. At first it was only for my own pleasure and later, for friends to see.
It was my life long dream to make a living by writing. This still isn’t the case but…
Believe in your dreams, and work hard to achieve them. Writing definitely requires talent but is also a skill you have to master through study and practice.
It is never too late to try.
Hi, everyone!
I am a huge fan of learning new things, seeing new places and meeting new people. This makes it really logical for me to be so passionate about traveling. Ever since I was a little kid I loved the feeling of getting up early in the morning of a first day on a new trip.
I developed the habit of writing down everything I have seen or done during a trip long time ago. At first I used those writings only for myself, for remembering what happened. Later on I shared them with friends and family and gradually people around me started asking advice before going to a place I have already been to.
I would be very pleased if my writings are of any help to all of you.
Thanks for visiting my blog.
