Carcassonne
My family was always a big fan of games. Board games, video games, pick your poison, we love it! I grew up used to having aunts and uncles, and my parent’s friends at our house on Saturdays for endless game nights, guitar playing and lots of fun. When we were little we were not allowed […]

Toulouse (ish) and the Cité de l’espace
I have been staring at the screen for the pats 10 minutes trying to decide what should be the title of this post 🙄 So, back to my backpacking trip last year, after I left from Andorra I went to Toulouse, but I basically slept there for two nights, I didn’t actually spent any time […]

Andorra La Vella
When I first started planning this trip I first made the decision to go to Barcelona, from Trondheim. And then, I made the mistake of opening Google Maps to see what was in the surroundings. Getting there from Barcelona I took the Alsa bus, which was the strike one on the list of things to […]

Walking through the clouds in Montserrat
Ok, I think we have established by now that I am TERRIBLE on keeping this blog updated. Today is May 28th, 2020 and I’m still writing about my last trip that started on September last year. I have started writing this post a million times already and the longer it takes the harder it is […]

Barcelona – Day 3
Day 1 Day 1 in Barcelona was actually day 3 since I got here on the Saturday 19th, but didn’t actually do anything. Day 2 I went to Girona and Figueres, so it’s day 3 of the third part of the trip and day 42 since I left Canada. After spending the day before in […]

Around and about – Norway
I would like to start this post by saying that I have no idea for a title at the moment. The idea of naming the posts after Doctor Who episode names crossed my mind, but I’m not sure it would work since the name of the episodes are pretty peculiar. I might give that a […]

Day trip to Røros – Norway
So, after 8 days in Florida for a conference (post about that later) I have finally arrived in Norway where I will be staying for 4 weeks visiting family. And while I will be staying at my sister’s place and there’s nothing touristy left to do here in Trondheim, we had two small trips planned. […]

Portugal – Day 2 – Lisbon
I’m not a big fan of organized excursions. They are too fast, too messy, too busy. You end up not seeing everything you want, you have little to no time to appreciate the places you go. However, sometimes, out of pure laziness, I yield and I end up in one of those crazy and disturbing […]

Portugal – Day 1 – Cabo Espichel
Here I’m, on a new adventure! This time, Portugal, south of Spain, and Norway again. This first bit of the trip was a little different. Usually, I’m traveling by myself, but going to Lisbon was a different story because I was going to visit a good old friend (old as in we know each other […]
