After last year’s working experience on a sailing boat, all of a sudden I had the chance to start working on a motor yacht with a new crew. Even though I made all my plans for this summer on my previous boat, things turned out unexpectedly and I found myself on a totally different boat with a different crew. Working at sea might be quite fun, adventurous but also challenging from time to time where Preberi več
There’s this thing about traveling, you never know what you next stop is going to be. Mine happened to be Dubai. Again. And again during the Ramadan. A lot of people might be scared of Muslim states, they think the rules might be too strict, or it’s not safe..I can say, there is nothing to be afraid of, believe me. I had that feeling that I don’t have here in Slovakia – i really felt safe. Dubai is one Preberi več
I never really imagine, how travelers go on trip with backpack luggage only. How they organize all their stuff for 1 month or more in only one pack of maximum 60 liters of volume. After my first backpack trip in Indonesia, I realized how liberating this is. Our planning starts with packing of some pairs of shorts, T-shirts, long sleeves, swim-wear and some basic medicine repellents, hygienic accessories and some candies and sweets for Indonesian Preberi več
For all those adventure lovers out there, this is more than just a blog-post. Imagine how it would feel to swim in the endless ocean of air amidst huge Himalayan ranges and deep valleys. Bir is a bit unpopular, yet one of the most beautiful valleys of Himachal Pradesh. This place is crafted quite thoughtfully by nature to be perfectly suitable for paragliding activities. I was one of those very few people who got to Preberi več
A few months ago I was lying in my student bed in Brussels. It was 4 a.m., right after one out of many small goodbye parties we threw every once in a while in our student residence. My Erasmus experience was about to end. I was thinking about how life changing those months were. I was slowly evolving into a person I have always wanted to be: independent, a little crazy, not-so-much-forward thinking, reckless young Preberi več
I have a love affair with him. “He” is strong, powerful, successful, all-consuming, always interesting and incredibly handsome… Yes, I am talking about the city of New York. And I am sure I am not the only one who was completely taken away by the charms of this city – you either love it or hate it, there is no way in between, but for sure the city does not leave you cold. The so Preberi več
People often ask me what is my favourite destination and what is the most memorable thing I’ve ever done. Luckily for me, answers to both questions are in the same location. Working with great white sharks in South Africa. “South Africa? But isn’t it very dangerous there?” is usually their first reaction. Few days ago my geography teacher from elementary school told me that she went there with a tourist agency and their guides didn’t Preberi več
Hawaii are the last, 50th American state, the only one that consists only of islands, located in Oceania. I was lucky to be able to discover the island of Oahu, which is the most populated island of Hawaii with its 1,4 million inhabitants and it’s also the host of the Hawaiian capital, city of Honolulu. Immediately when you step of the plane, you get consumed by a special, incredibly magical atmosphere of tropical America. There Preberi več

If the sky is not in clouds you could see the top of the mountain from almost all places on the island. You can reach the top from Preberi več
I wasn`t planning on going to Portugal but my brother is currently staying there for work so I said to myself : “OK, why not?”. And I am not sorry at all. The country completely impressed me. I was staying with my brother in Braga. The town is beautiful, full of small local stores and pubs. The houses in Portugal are mostly old with typical tiles of different colours and very small balconies which I Preberi več
