Spain : Càdiz on Celebrity Equinox's "Càdiz and Flamenco Show" excursion (2024)
Просмотров 77Месяц назад
On August 29, 2024, I took a Celebrity Equinox cruise excursion to the southern region of Spain known as Andalucía. This included a bus tour, a walking tour and a flamenco show, with lunch and drinks provided. These are just my personal highlights of that excursion via Celebrity Equinox.

Andorra + France + Spain : 3 countries in 1 day (2024)
Просмотров 701Месяц назад
On August 26, 2024, I took a bus tour from Barcelona to Andorra. Along the way there were stops in Bagà, Spain and Ax-les-Thermes, France. Within Andorra, we visited El Pas de la Casa and the capital of Andorra la Vella. Aside from saying I set foot in this country, I must say that I would visit Andorra again for its picturesque views. Also, once a difficult destination, Andorra is now very acc...
Barcelona (personal highlights + sightseeing ideas + travel tips) (2024)
Просмотров 1142 месяца назад
In August 2024, I visited Catalonia with its culture unique from the rest of Spain. I had heard about "overtourism", but was pleasantly surprised that much of Barcelona was quite tolerable even during peak travel season! I did miss a LOT of places because I was there for only 2-3 days before a cruise. I stayed clear from Las Ramblas (hearing that it was too touristy) but also did not go inside ...

Iceland : Snæfellsnes + Reykjanes (with eruption, Summer 2023)
Просмотров 371Год назад
In July 2023, I drove into Snæfellsnes (a peninsula in the west of Iceland)! The next day, I walked on the lava fields of Fagradalsfjall ... on the last day, Litli-Hrútur erupted! This was my 3rd visit to Iceland (first two visits were in 2017 and 2021) but my first to see Snæfellsnes and explore more of Reykjanes ... I will return to Iceland many more times as there is still much more left to ...

This was my first time in Africa. I do know that "Africa is not only Morocco" and "Morocco is not all of Africa". Africa is also a very diverse continent. This video isn't even all of Morocco, or even all of Tangier, or even all of the Kasbah. The thing is, it's impossible to cover everything in a short video. It's my experience of a place and not meant to be a complete experience. Thank you for watching!

Did they accept US Dollars in Placencia?
Yes, you can pay in US dollars but you will get change back in Belizean dollars ... exchange rate is almost B$2 = US$1 :)
Looks like you've had a great time here! Hope you'll come back again! Greetings to Toronto from Berlin! 🙂 🐼

Beautiful Montenegro 🇲🇪 is the best city in the Balkan I love the city ❤️ ♥️
This video is not a thorough and informative vlog. I am completely new with travel vlogs and I wish to improve. This time, with iMovie, I learned how to add an external royalty-free song called "Balkan" (by Forestmusic) from Jamendo. Near the end, I make a "nod" to one of my favourite travel vlogs: "Bald and Bankrupt" ;)
