24 Hours: What To Do in Lund, Sweden

Cobblestone streets, a charming old town feel and students everywhere – Lund in southern Sweden perfectly combines old with new. Growing up in Sweden, I always knew Lund for its most significant institution; Lund University. Lund University was founded in 1666 and consistently ranks among the top 100 universities worldwide. However, Lund has so much more to offer than just a rich academic history. If you spend 24 hours in Lund, you’ll find that some of the best things to...

How To Spend 24 Hours in Edinburgh, Scotland

Hey, did you ever hear about that wizard kid with the glasses and a funny looking scar? H something? Well, odds are that unless you have been living under a rock, the name Harry Potter will ring a bell. I’m guessing you’ve also heard of his birthplace? Good ol’ Edinburgh. If you asked me, I’d say that Scotland’s capital is one of the best cities to visit in the UK. Considering the quality and variety of places in the UK,...

How to Spend 24 Hours in Colmar, France

A visit to Colmar, France had been high on my bucket list for years and back in November I finally got the chance to see those half-timber clad buildings that had decorated my Pinterest profile for years.

How To Spend 24 Hours in Eguisheim, France

In November last year I took a bucket list trip to Colmar to experience the incredible Christmas market.

How to Spend 24 Hours in Brussels, Belgium

Welcome to Brussels, the most boring capital in Europe! At least, that seems to be the reputation Brussels has earned over the years. I’m ashamed to say that I let this influence my decision to only spend 24 hours in Brussels during a Netherlands to Belgium trip. I regretted this decision as soon as I set foot in the capital on my first night. The city had a lively atmosphere and was full of people enjoying their evening outside. Based...

How To Spend 24 Hours in The Hague

Have you ever heard of The Hague? No? Neither had I until I was planning a trip between Amsterdam and Brussels and needed a place to stay between the two cities. I love when one discovers new and unexpected travel gems (hey Riga) and The Hague was a great surprise. The Hague is the administrative capital of The Netherlands, meaning it is home to the Dutch government. It is the third largest city in the Netherlands and perfect as a...
