When you think about a holiday in Egypt, you immediately think about a visit to Cairo to see the pyramids. From Hurghada you can book excursions but keep in mind: it will be a very long day. You will be picked up at your hotel at 1 am and you come back around 10 pm. But it is definitely worth it although you only see the highlights of the city.
Medical tourism is becoming increasingly popular. Countries in Europe, Asia, and South-America offer medical care to people from other countries. The reasons? The high cost of healthcare in some countries, the long waiting times, and the easy and price of international travel.
Of course, I don’t have to tell you that Belgium is famous for its beers. A typical Belgian beer that is only brewed here in Belgium is Lambic. The special feature of lambic is that it is fermented by exposure to wild yeasts present in the air and the building.
Horror, sadness, fear, and anger were one of the many emotions I felt while visiting Auschwitz during our trip to Krakau. But also hope, hope that it will never be forgotten. Hope, that it will never happen again.
Serenity Makadi Beach is located in Makadi Bay, outside of Hurghada. It is a big hotel complex that is designed in Moroccan style. Outside the hotel, there is nothing to do, so if you want to go to Hurghada, you have to ask for a shuttle or a taxi. But why would you want to visit downtown Hurghada if you have everything you want in this beautiful hotel?
For as long as I can remember I get car sick. I thought it would get better with getting older; I was wrong. As a child, I associated long car rides and boat trips with getting sick. Not a fun prospect when you are a child.
Living in Belgium doesn’t mean that we visit Brussels enough, unfortunately. It was about time to visit our capital again so we booked a room at Hotel Motel One in Brussels to enjoy everything that Brussels has to offer.
If there is one thing we love to do while exploring cities and traveling it is discovering delicious food. I couldn’t be happier when I was announced the winner of a dinner for two at The Living in Brussels. This restaurant is the beating heart of the boutique hotel Pillows Grand Hotel Place Rouppe in the center of Brussels.
On Sunday, February 11th, 2018, the 90th carnival parade walked through the streets of Aalst, Belgium. The sun was shining (occasionally) and we, together with about 90000 other people, enjoyed the colorful costumes, beautiful floats, and the inventive songs. It is a special day for everybody who lives in Aalst and something special to experience for tourists. Here are some pictures and a short movie to enjoy the atmosphere.
