Enjoying Bordeaux During a Stormy City-Break
Bordeaux is famous for its wine, rich gastronomy and exceptional architecture. But it is surely not famous for its bad weather. So I was surprised to visit during a storm on a weekend of February. I was a bit unlucky as it was quite unusual to have a red flag alert in the region. It was unfortunate but I still enjoyed as much as I could.

Travelling the World with a Moroccan Passport
I’ve been asked many times if I hold dual nationality. The answer is no. I only have a Moroccan passport, which I am really proud of. However, visa-free countries for Moroccans are quite limited. Morocco ranks 72 worldwide for passport power with barely 58 countries to visit without visas. So how do I manage to visit over 50 countries with my green passport? This blog post gives some light to readers eager to know more about visas I took and what countries I visited visa-free.
Things to Do in Paris in One Day
The capital of France is amongst some of the most visited cities in the world. I probably count as half of those visitors as I went many many times there. To be honest, it is not my favourite place. However, in recent visits, I start to fall in love, finally. Some Paris sights are so classic that probably I don’t need to mention them on this blog post such as the Eiffel Tower. Here’s a little plan on things to do in Paris for one day based on my personal experiences.

How to Travel from Podgorica to Tirana by Bus
I love the Balkans, it’s one of my favourite regions in the world. It’s authentic, unique and rich in culture. However, one of the downsides of this beautiful region is for sure the lack of public transports and intercity connections. Travelling by bus or by non-existing train is very time consuming and tiring. But is not impossible to get where you want to, so here’s how I travelled from Podgorica to Tirana by bus.
One Year in Travel: From Faro to Tbilisi
2016 has been an exciting year for me, travel-wise! I kicked off my travels in January by visiting Serbia for one week followed by quick visits of Istanbul and Tbilisi. In March, for my birthday, I went to Langkawi Island in Malaysia with an 8 hours stopover in Amman on the way. In April, I visited Cardiff in the UK. In May, I stayed in Morocco for 2 weeks and Spain for one week. During the whole summer, I had city-breaks in Faro, Copenhagen, Paris, Bremen and Berlin. It was indeed a busy year! I hope it will be the same again in 2017. So Happy New Year!

On this blog post, I write about 17 cities I want to discover once again in the new year. If I re-add them to my bucket list, it can only mean I had an awesome time and I want to reconnect again. This list is based on trends in the travel industry for 2017 but mainly based upon my personal experiences.
How to Combine Copenhagen and Malmö in One Trip
Whenever I have an opportunity to travel, I try to make the most out of it. So instead of visiting one country, I try to squeeze in another. That way, I see and discover more. Copenhagen in Denmark and Malmö in Sweden are just 35 minutes away by train from each other. Seriously, this calls for a combined trip! So that’s exactly what I did, two cities in one trip! Both cities are quite different despite their closeness but both offer plenty of things to keep busy on a typical Southern Scandinavia trip.

Bus 11: London’s Best Route for Sightseeing
London’s famous red double decker buses are a major attraction in the city. I personally like riding the bus in my every day life in London but I particularly like some lines such as the line 11. Why? Simply because it goes via many of London’s best attractions such as Big Ben, Trafalgar Square and St Pauls Cathedral. I get to the first row on the upper floor to enjoy an amazing view on one of the oldest bus routes of London, as it started operating in 1906. This is by far the cheapest alternative for a London sightseeing bus.

Reasons Why I Boycott My University’s Graduation
Today, hundreds of students will flock the halls of University of West London (UWL) to be honoured for their hard work in front of their teachers, families and loved ones. Unfortunately, I will not be part of their happy day which is also supposed to be my own happy day. The day when I will feel like my hard work as postgraduate student is finally celebrated. I chose not to be there for many reasons. But mainly because University of West London took me down to hell in the 3 months preceding this big day. Now, I am finally opening up on this issue but also on the unfair treatment I have received from them.
