• Lakeview

  
  I recently went camping with my boyfriend and his grandparents to a place just outside of the desolate town of Lakeview, Oregon. I'd heard about the town from some acquaintances that's grown up in Lakeview, and they'd told me all about what you could find there: nothing.

• Newquay and the Beach!

  
  On a recent family holiday I went to Cornwall, I stayed in a static caravan in Treyarnon bay, which is 10 minutes outside of Padstow. One day me and my friend Ian (whom I was staying with) met up with some other college friends who were also holidaying in Cornwall for a trip around Newquay and some body boarding at Fistral Beach.

• Murinsel Graz

  
  When I heard of the Murinsel project for the first time I was very curious to see it: A cafe swimming in the midst of the river Mur! When I came to Graz I surely visited this extraordinary cafe. And I was fascinated by the realization of this project.

• Kunsthaus Graz

  
  The Kunsthaus was built in 2003 when Graz was European Capital of Culture. It was designed by London architects Peter Cook and Colin Fournier and is a very cool futuristic building – in my opinion it looks like a big blue space ship - situated near the river Mur between Südtiroler Platz and Lendkai.

• Kallbadhus Restaurant (Bjärred)

  
  Maybe that restaurant is the coolest I ever been. You have to walk through a long long wood gateway (Långa bryggan) over the quiet sea of Öresund. At the end you will find a very small restaurant, where you could eat the finest smoked salmon, and a sauna: one for women, one for men. If your are brave enough, after spending some time in the hot room, you can have a bath!

• Mud hiking

  
  Mountains are adventurers best friends, right? If you go there in winter, you can have a loads of snow, skiing tours and so on. If you travel there in summer, hiking, climbing and things like that are all your options. But if you, like me, go there during the first days of the spring, you can get into a very difficult to judge situation.

• Portland Classical Chinese Garden

  
  The Portland Classical Chinese Garden is an amazing place to take the time to literally “smell the roses” or in this case the jasmine. The scent of sweet jasmine is all around in the totally Zen garden right in the midst of downtown Portland, Oregon.

• Triana (Sevilla)

  
  Across the Guadalquivir from the old heart of Sevilla is Triana, the barrio of the city known for flamenco and for being a great place for a tapa and a glass of manzanilla. The streets closest to the river are impossibly narrow, with houses whitewashed and hung with pots of geraniums, or painted in the distinctive red paint of the city.

• Levoca oldtown

  
  Levoca is nothing special when you're looking to the map of eastern Slovakia. If you are traveling in this area (national parks, castles and so on), it would be a crime not to stop in the Levoca town. Take a break near the gate of Kosice, which is a monument and of course the main doors to the old town treasures of this beautiful town.

• Dune De Pilat

  
  What an incredible sight, as you stand at the base of the Dune after walking through all the touristy stuff. The heat is amazing and its so bright, it spreads out before you like a wall of sand. A staircase seems to grow out of the Dune so you can attempt to climb it without feeling like you are crossing the Sahara, of course climbing what appears to be a vertical staircase in the heat is not easy work.

• Hiking in Terchova

  
  I just adore mountains... Especially when I can feel them with my feet. I mean, hiking is one of the best options if you want to rearrange your ideas, reinstall the mind and have hours of time spent with yourself.

• BTS Skytrain (Bangkok)

  
  Not all too trustful of the tuk-tuks? In Thailand's congested capital, the efficient transport backbone is the Bangkok Mass Transit System (BTS) Skytrain, which was opened to the public in 1999 and currently undergoing expansion. Modeled after Vancouver's, this elevated rail system runs through 23 stations along two lines- Silom and Sukhumvit-that tangentially interchange at Siam Station.

  There are two ways to reach the Baltic coast of Lithuania traveling from the most of other lithuanian or european places. The first one and the fastest is the highway (lithuanian "autostrada"): higher speeds, two lanes and the journey lasts not so long.

• Karlův Most (Prague)

  
  Daylight brings the crowds to Charles Bridge.. peddlers of paintings, drawings, jewelry and every sort of art imaginable. They accost and are accosted by tourists unceasingly. The only way the mob is unmanaged is when you are at a distance, unable to hear the roar of selling and buying.
