Sunset at Mekong river

One thing I can recommend for everybody who wants to stay in Amsterdam in a funky place is Volkshotel - former HQ of Volkskrant newspaper. Standard rooms are far from being standard, but have a look yourself: volkshotel.nl

Bathroom

Bunk bed

Funky walls

Very homy stay in Lahema National Park in Estonia.

My city is full of hidden gems, full of ugly beauty and I will be sharing a lot more of it with you.

Jumping about on Lion's Head, Cape Town

Museum encounter

Finnish food

Ok, so for the last few nights, I've been staying in Finnish hotels and have noticed few things. First of all, although it's -20 outside they still drink a lot of water with ice! I'm just downing one hot beverage after the other to warm up.
They are also very healthy, fruit platter left in the boardroom was empty before I could see what was there. Admirable.
And on your breakfast buffet don't even look for Nutella or honey as a spread. No sign of chocolate, honey in the tea area as a sweetener.
Oh, and amazing breads!!! Not to mention that all food is labelled not just for gluten content but also lactose (happy me!!!) so for the first time in my hotel odyssey I could eat a very tasty lactose free porridge :)
