Chefchaouen is definitely one of the most photogenic locations I’ve ever visited. Since a lot of people visit the Blue Pearl of Morocco only for a day and the medina can be a little confusing, I thougth it could be handy to share a map with the best Chefchaouen photo locations, so you don’t loose too much time looking for the Instafamous spots!

Are you planning a trip to Chefchaouen, the Blue Pearl of Morocco? Then you have come to the right place!

Traveling solo in Morocco as a female; the truth
Traveling solo has never been a problem for me. But when thinking of Morocco I kept being hesitant. I thought it would be better to wait until I had found the perfect travel partner, since organized tours aren’t my style. I heard so many horror stories about this country and so many people advised me not to go there by myself. So I kept postponing my decision to travel solo as a female to Morocco. If only I had known what I know today…
Two days in Rotterdam: the best photo spots
When I got invited by Cityhub to spend a weekend in Rotterdam, I couldn’t be more happier! I was already thinking of going there for a day trip, so when I got the opportunity to explore the city for two full days I immediately booked my train ticket! I knew this city would be completely different from any other Dutch city I already visited. As soon as I arrived I realized that was an understatement. As a result of the German bombing in May 1940, almost the whole city got destroyed, so they had to rebuild it completely. Which is the reason for this city’s awesome modern architecture.
Checking in at CityHub Rotterdam, a review
When I first got invited to stay at the CityHub in Rotterdam, I was a little hesitant. I am not a hostel type of girl. The thought of having to share a bathroom with a couple of strangers gave me the chills. But then I remembered surviving a bedouin desert camp with a shared bathroom in Jordan and after checking the CityHub website, I was convinced it was worth the try. It all looked very modern and clean and the hubs looked very cool! So a few weeks later I boarded the train in Antwerp to Rotterdam.
Five lesser known places in the Netherlands you should visit
Don’t we all like to explore off the beaten path places? These days with social media all around it is hard to find places that are still unspoiled by mass tourism. In 2018 I wanted to explore the Netherlands some more. I already visited Amsterdam a few times before and some cities close to the Belgian border such as Breda and Eindhoven. But those are more “shopping cities” to me and aren’t really that pretty. I wanted to find some more authentic places and that’s how I ended up at these lesser known places in the Netherlands.
