After Seville, we took a bus to Faro. It took 3 hours, although I found that if we’d looked a little more into Seville’s bus station we could have saved half an hour by going to the second stop. Faro is on the South coast of Portugal and I wanted to get a little bit … More Portugal: Faro, Olhão and Culatra Island
Seville is the beautiful capital city of Aldalusia, southern Spain, and the winner of Lonely Planet’s best place to visit in 2018.

A salt mine with a theme park inside? There was no way I could turn this down. So, a few months ago, I headed to Turda, a town that’s about an hour outside Cluj-Napoca to have a look at Salina Turda. It’s basically a salt mine museum with some interesting things to do inside! Getting … More Romania: Turda Salt Caves and Gorge
