St. Albans. England.

The sun came out and Alfredo, my Argentinian friend, and I are going to see a little town that we know nothing about and it’s going to give us a very satisfactory surprise. Saint Alban was the first English saint, and this small town that bears his name is north of London. We arrive by […]

Kensington, Notting Hill, London.

South Kensington is a rather exclusive neighborhood of London, I’m not going to talk to you about any mansions, but the thinnest house in the city, they call it Thin House. Next to the Kesington tube station there are several cute places to have tea such as Molly Rose Bakery, the Hummingbird pastry shop, or […]

Westminster, Chelsea, South Kensington. London.

Today I start my getaway to London by going to have tea at The English Rose Café and Tea shop, beautiful, tasty and affordable. It is very close to Buckingham Palace, the king’s residence.  St James Park is beautiful in autumn, painted in gold, and so green in summer, I cross it to Whitehall where […]

Bloomsbury, Camden Town, Highgate. London.

London oozes literature and Bloomsbury is the literary district par excellence, our admired Virginia Woolf lived here in what is now the Tavistock Hotel. The Bloomsbury literary group was born here at the beginning of the twentieth century, made up of writers and philosophers. In front of it I find the Tavistock park with her […]

Mayfair, Marylebone, Fitzrovia. London.

Today I start in Mayfair, the neighborhood where the Bridgertons live, again with a pub, Mr Frogg, it seems decorated for the series as it looks so beautiful, colorful and full of flowers. Next to it is the cute Avery Row,  with lovely shops and cafes. It was in Richard Green’s building where Lord Nelson […]

From Soho to Covent Garden. London

Near SOHO, the Chaclan pub has been serving drinks since 1898,  the Argyll Arms has beautiful ceilings and interior. It is not unusual to start a post about London talking about pubs. I don’t drink beer, but I can’t resist entering all the ones I find in my walks, which are many.  I also don’t […]

Holborn & Temple. London.

London gives the opportunity to write many posts. It has been a long time since I took you down its streets where I have wandered a lot lately, so I am going to divide them into several posts, get ready for an invasion of names and places.  I’ll start in Holborn, where the Dickens Museum […]

Palma, small and divine.

One of my first ever posts when I created my blog was about the city where I was born, in fact, I published it on April 2nd, my birthday. I have been updating it. I did not want to leave anything nice untold, but it was becoming a bit long, so I created this other […]

Pollensa and its Port.

It’s been a long time since I told you wonders about the corners of this beautiful island that I call home, today the map takes us north, to Pollensa. The town shelters much of Mallorcan history. I will start walking along Cecili Metel street, where there are two medieval wells, the Verger and dels Tiradors, […]

Cologne, Germany.

Today is my first visit to Cologne. I take the train from Bad Honnef. I love to travel by rail, I find it very romantic, I can read while I arrive at my destination. Cologne’s central station “Hauptbahnhof” is next to the Cathedral, not ideal, but convenient.  There she is, the iconic Cathedral “Köln Dom”, […]
