Travel Blogger, Nourishing Ireland

I am an American who lives on the SW coast of Ireland. In March, my husband and I traveled to Dublin by train, then flew to Vienna for a couple of days, then to Soller, Mallorca for two weeks. While there, I took the antique wooden train between Soller and Palma.

In September, we repeated the trip to Vienna for two weeks. (My husband is Austrian.) I spent the entire month of November fulfilling two dreams: visiting Bali and undergoing a 28-day Pancha Karma cleanse at Oneworld Ayurveda near Ubud, Bali.

Writer, Speaker & Blogger, The British Berliner

This is a brilliant topic Maria. Nice one! OK, here's mine:

🌍 Home base: Berlin, Germany

🛩 How many flights? 4. Although, it should have been 6!
It's a long story but my flight got cancelled twice from Berlin to Bristol, so I took the train & bus from Berlin to London & back!

🚞 How many trains?
Gosh. Where do I start?
8 trains in France, 2 trains in Belgium, 3 trains in Spain, 4 trains in England, and many, many trains across North & East Germany!
Throughout the summer, the cost of train tickets anywhere in Germany, was just €9.00 per month for June, July & August, so I really took advantage of it!

📍What destinations did you visit?
France - Paris & Cancale (Brittany). We took the train to and from Berlin!
England - London, Bristol & Bath
Belgium - I took the Eurostar from Brussels to London & back
Spain - Barcelona, Valencia & Malaga
Poland - Zgorzelec. It wasn't too difficult. I simply crossed the bridge from Poland into Germany!
Germany - Görlitz, Leipzig, Erfurt, Lübeck, the islands of Sylt, Magdeburg, Rostock, Warnemünde, Schwerin, Weimar, Cologne, Gifhorn, Wolfsburg, Hannover, Spreewald, Lübbenau, Caputh, Blütenstadt Weder (Havel), Brandeburg, Waren (Müritz), and many more that I simply can't remember!

🏂 New skills / experiences you learned:
Learning to Drive - I know. Don't judge!
Gardening - Apparently, I've got very green fingers and grew most of our vegetables, and lots of fruit.
Cooking - I've always hated cooking but have improved considerably. I even made Xmas dinner all by myself & I've also been making jams, chutneys and home-made vodka!
Academics: I started a PhD (part-time) - Doctorate of Business Administration in Higher Education Management (University of Bath), so I have to be in the UK every 6 months ...
