  • Walking around the shady streets of Sofia is one of my favourite ways to spend an afternoon. When I stay for more than a few days, I love getting an Airbnb in the city centre so I'm close to a lot of the cool places and events. That way, everything is within a 30-minute walk, which I'm more than willing to do.
  • Berlin, my time with you was short and kind of crazy, and soon I’ll be sharing content from SOFIA. This will be fourth time in the city and I like to think I know it like a local. Which is far from true, but I get by and my Bulgarian vocabulary and knowledge of Bulgaria is growing tremendously. Stay tuned for more posts from my time there.
  • A few more whacky snaps to share from Berlin! This spot was right outside a parking lot filled with Trabants (Trabi for short), a little German car popular at the height of communism and only produced between 1957 and 1990. It's inherently tied to the Berlin Wall era which is probably why it has a cult following now and is a popular car to rent in and around Checkpoint Charlie.
  • I mentioned this on an earlier post: This month, I fell into the trap of overpacking on my 4-week trip to Europe. Luckily, I'm not shy about admitting my mistakes -- especially if I gained some advice to share. On the blog, find out the lessons I learned and how to avoid making the same mistakes I did. Link in bio as usual. Share your overpacking stories in the comments!
  • I’m trying my best to stay vegan on this trip but it requires a lot more effort asking for substitutions and planning ahead. But sometimes places surprise you by being super flexible and excited about the challenge to keep you fed! Even though German food is not typically the most vegan-friendly, Berlin is a hip modern city that caters to every sort of diet and I kept seeing vegan options in the most unlikely places. Sometimes that just meant removing the meat part of the dish but other times they had full on alternative proteins and cashew cheeses! It’s nice, when traveling for work and in a group, to be able to say “yes, I can also eat here with you.”
  • On this trip to Europe, my stops include Berlin, Germany, Sofia, Bulgaria, and Thassos, Greece. While most of the things I packed work for Berlin or Sofia, I didn't want my Greece items to go to waste. So, I layer! This dress was bought on a whim at The Gap when they were having a sale on swimwear and pyjamas. Beach cover up or nightgown -- who doesn't love a white dress?
  • This is a photo of a relieved woman who just received a phone notifcation that her lost luggage was found and delivered. In June, I flew to Berlin and through a series of events that I describe on my blog, my luggage was left behind. In fact, the airline didn't know if my checked suitcase, packed with everything I needed for my month in Europe, was in Montreal, my connecting city, or in Berlin. For 30 hours, I survived with what I had in my personal item bag (which was actually quite a bit all things considered). I was fearful my luggage may be delayed until after I left Berlin for Sofia (complicating the found bag delivery) or lost for good. I had a work-related party to go to that evening and I swung by COS to pick out a simple dress so I had a fresh outfit for the evening. I had no idea where my bag was when I made this purchase, but a few hours later, on my way to the party, I receive an email from the airline and a ping from my @tileapp that my bag was at my hotel. Huggggee relief and it allowed me to enjoy the party feeling a lot more carefree. So, here's a photo of me smiling on the Spree river knowing my bag was found and waiting for me in my room.
  • This is Charlie's Beach Bar, a sandy little alcove with food trucks and more right in the middle of Berlin. In fact, it's right behind Checkpoint Charlie and enclosed by tall fences that feature the history of the Berlin wall. At first, I thought it was a little irreverant to create a beach bar (without water) in such a powerful historic area. Then I realized how very Berlin it was! European cities have a way of building in and around their history so it's still full of life and serves the purposes of the people living there now, and that's something I can get behind.
