Budapest, Hungary

  October 2024. As it was Hungary's Presidency term, our first autumn meeting took us to Budapest. As I have been to Budapest before, there was not much touristing around, more touristy info here and here . 

Portugal: Porto, Matosinhos

 Porto had been on my list for a while, so now, when I was already almost on the border of Spain and Portugal, I had to visit. 

Galicia, Spain

   A Coruña - Praia das Cadedrais - Ribadeo - Lugo - Santiago de Compostela - Vigo,  August 2024

Basque country, Spain

 July 2024.  Took a train (and a bus, thanks to Renfe) from Valladolid to San Sebastian! I have not truly explored north of Spain, ever, so about time to rectify the situation.

Valladolid, Spain

 July 2024. Our dear friends were getting married in their hometown in Valladolid, so we all traveled there for the wedding and a few days before and after. It was so so hot, but also a lot of fun, and what a beautiful wedding it was! 

Pinkpop vol 2, Megaland, NL

    Second time at Pinkpop festival (second year in a row, in fact) and still impressed! The weather was a bit more eventful this year, as last year was a complete heatwave. This year, we got heavy rain on the first day, perfect mild, sunny weather on the second day, and back to the heat on the third day. 

Brugge, Belgium

    May 2024.  Had once been to Bruges (Brugge) to tourist around ( look here ), but as there was a conference and a regular EJN meeting right after each other, there was still enough time to enjoy the beauty of the city.

Champagne, France

   April 2024. How many years have we been going to Brussels regularly? It was always just a few hours away. Finally made it!

Southern Spain

  March 2024 Torremolinos - Malaga - Marbella - Tarifa - Cadiz - Setenil de las Bodegas - Ronda

Jordan vol 2: Wadi Rum, Aqaba, Al Karak, Dead Sea

 From Petra we drove a couple hours towards the Wadi Rum desert, headed first to the Wadi Rum village to register ourselves, then left our car at the designated area at the beginning of the desert and met our host who drove us into the desert in his truck. 

Jordan vol 1: Madaba, Petra

 Witnessing world wonders, breathing in history and culture and enjoying the beauty of nature!
