Norway is a gigantic country. Maybe not so much in size, but many landscapes of history and art. So big that it is practically impossible to think of visiting everything in a single trip to Norway. Too many places to see in Norway routes to do, monuments to visit ... so you have to go little by little. What is "natural" is to start in the south –yes, there is also south in the north–, which we did. Deciding what surprised, fascinated, impacted us the most… is very complicated. Even more so, take that list as “what to see in Norway. Because I am sure that many were left out of our itinerary and because the colors were to taste.

On your trip to Russia, you cannot miss a step through its ancient capital, and to make the most of those days, we are going to tell you what to do in st petersburg. Founded in the early 1700s by Peter the Great, who understood that looking towards Europe was essential for the development of his beloved Russia, Saint Petersburg is one of the great jewels of the country. Petrograd before, Leningrad after, the city's history is relatively recent, but not at all boring. Peter the Great wanted to bring together the best of Europe here, so he relied on excellent architects and artists to create the most beautiful city in the world from scratch. The result is a monumental and elegant open-air museum that almost overwhelms the visitor.

If in Italy you say Rimini, everyone will tell you about its great beaches on the Adriatic Riviera 15 km of beaches no less! and its party. If you are from my fifth, you will remember those great clubs that in the '80s and' 90s were the center of the Italian macro party. Many foreign tourists who know it also do so for its beaches, if they come from northern Europe, or because they have passed through here on their way to the small Republic of San Marino.

Did you come here looking for ideas of things to see and do on the Costa Brava? Cool! Today we will tell you about this Catalan corner that we enjoyed so much in our years living in Barcelona. More than 200 kilometers of coastline bring together the essence of the Mediterranean, full of beautiful beaches and coves with crystal clear waters and an interior that hides a few surprises (from villages that seem carved in the rock to botanical gardens).

We always say it, but you have to put your cards on the table every time: we are not objective with Bologna. It is our favorite city in Italy - beyond Rome, of course - and it also has a history for us. In passing or as a destination, we have visited it dozens of times and always find new reasons to return. New, although only with "the same old,” there are already reasons to do it every year. How many reasons do you need? Here you have no less than things to do in Bologna. Surely they are enough.

For the amount of Rubens works alone, Belgium's most populous city is well worth a visit. But that is only one of the reasons. Did you know that, in the 16th century, the taxes collected by the Spanish crown in its port were equal to the income from the silver mines of Potosí? In addition to paying taxes, Merchants also built palaces and commissioned works of art to decorate them. Of course, there is also a market square, a Stadhuis, a cathedral ... Come on, and there is no shortage of places to visit in Antwerp.
