At this point I can't even distinguish day from night, #winterinnetherlands facts - it is all grey. I’ll be complaining for the next six months, and I’m so close to losing it 😂

Getting lost in Catalan architecture and Mediterranean culture, my neck hurts from looking up and the buildings keep saying hello..... 🫠
Tried ’s tapas after a 30-minute wait, so worth it, glad we did 🤌🏻

Tried at for a little Italian escape close to home and it kinda checked all the boxes.
Tasty food, charming ambiance, good mood... Just what we needed 💖

We went to just to feed and see the alpacas, but turns out lots of families were there for a private alpaca walk (yeap, you literally walk with them for about 1.5 hours!)
For families with kids or for anyone who wants to feed their inner child (like me), it’s the perfect way to spend a cozy fall afternoon 🦙🍂

Stayed in this authentic 17th-century heritage hotel built by Jusuf Mašković – once meant to be his grand summer retreat 💭
There’s something almost magical about sleeping inside history. Ottoman stone walls, arches, a Turkish hammam, and modern comfort all at once..
And Zadar… we kinda love your quiet September days and those incredible views over the Dalmatian islands 🌊💫
