Cautivadora, romántica y relajada, así podriamos describir un poco la ciudad holandesa, donde los canales son testigos de un silencio mágico, más grande que las de Venecia, donde sus casas llenan páginas de historias y leyendas. Los paisajes de architectura y de sus mil millones de bicicletas son parte de la estructura urbana los cuales no deberían de faltar nunca aunque algunos no sientan pasión por ellas.

Millions of tourists can’t be wrong! Amsterdam.
Famed for its progressive attitude, discussed over its tolerance on basically everything.
So whether you’re an art lover, music lover or a culture lover, Amsterdam has more to offer than you could possibly wish for, at least for me.

How to pack a case / como hacer la maleta:

Knowing how to pack a suitcase is essential to being a good traveler. Your top concern is how to make the most of the space while avoiding excessive wrinkling. This can be achieved in a number of ways, and you can even mix and match methods to find the one that works for you.

1. Determine how much and what kind of clothing you’ll need for your trip — a weekend getaway to the country obviously requires fewer items than a week in the mountains. Will there be laundry facilities where you’re going? What kind of weather can you anticipate? You won’t need flip-flops for skiing, and camping trips are no place for a nice tie.

2. Toiletries should be as small as possible, and packed in sealable plastic bags for protection against spillage.

3. Make a list of everything you think you’ll want on your trip, then try to eliminate a few tertiary items. Remember, if you find yourself in need of something when you arrive at your destination, chances are good that you can purchase it there. Does the list seem reasonable? Now you’re ready to pack.

4. The Rolling Method:

* Lay each item of clothing you’ll be packing out on the floor. Partially fold them — fold pants in half lengthwise, and shirt arms neatly to the back of the shirt.

* Starting from the bottom of the article of clothing, roll tightly until you reach the end. This should result in a neat cylinder, which you can then fit into your suitcase — think of it as playing clothes-Tetris.

* Place heavier items like pants and jackets in the bottom of your suitcase. Shirts and skirts go on top of these.

* Underwear and socks should be rolled as well and placed inside shoes, which can go either at the sides or on the bottom of your suitcase.packing a suitcase

* Very delicate or otherwise unrollable items like blazers and fancy dresses can either be placed flat at the very top of your suitcase, or hung inside a separate garment bag.

* To avoid crushing bras, place softer items inside the cups, and try to nestle them in a corner of your suitcase.

* Leave room in the center of the suitcase for your toiletries bag(s). A snug place in between your clothing cylinders should prevent squashing and spilling.

5. The stacking combination:

* Start with your shirts. Stack unfolded items on top of each other, starting with the most easily wrinkled and moving up.

* Fold all the shirt sleeves together in toward the body of the shirts.

* Now take all the bottoms of the shirts and fold them together toward the tops of the shirts. This should result in a largish rectangle of shirts, which you can then fit into the bottom of your suitcase.

* If you have dresses, lay them down in the suitcase over the shirts-rectangle. Let the bottoms of your dresses hang over the sides of your suitcase.

* Take your skirts and pants individually. Fold each in half lengthwise.

* Stack all the now-folded skirts and pants next, in the same very-wrinkly to not-so-wrinkly order.

* Now take the entire pile and fold it in half lengthwise, resulting in a largish rectangle of skirts and pants, which you can then place into the suitcase on top of the shirts or dresses. If you have dresses, this is the time to fold the bottoms over the pants-and-skirts rectangle.

* Fit shoes, which have been stuffed with underwear and socks, into the empty spaces in your suitcase.

* Continue your game of packing-Tetris with toiletries and accessories.

6. The Daily Plan method:

* Decide on an outfit for every day you’ll be traveling.

* Pack each outfit in its own large resealable plastic bag — the rolling method works well for this packing style.

* Place each plastic bag in your suitcase, along with your plastic bags of toiletries, and shoes.

SANTANDER – HOZNAYO (SPAIN)

hoznayo

Mucho que ver y poco tiempo para disfrutarlo, asi se denominaría Santander. Nosotros hicimos un viaje relámpago a Hoznayo en concreto, un pueblo donde las claras y los pinchos estan deliciosos y un pueblo donde es de paso obligatorio para la mayoría de los viajeros. Pudimos disfrutar de montaña, lago y playa, todo rapidisimo pero precioso… habrá que volver…

Bruxelles – Amberes

 

Bruxelles Another new video of my trip, hope everyone enjoys it!
Brussels, metropolitan city which I hardly recomend going walking if your not going to see every single street, or if your are far out of the center with a tram or subway you can get any way. Well, at least the most important things in the center like always, the baby boy fountain (Meneken Pis) is not that big and you can imagine and it´s just another type of attaction to laugh a bit, the comic place is most for comic freaks and I haven´t seen any speacial museum, its proberly all near the streets from the Grand Place, huge buildings looking very artistic, there´s usually someone playing music which makes it more touristic and amusing.

Espero que os guste mi resumen de mi viaje a Bélgica…

img_72He podido informarme tras varias búsquedas por internet de blogs de viajeros, de agencias, de empresas pequeñas que se dedican a la pasión de viajar. En concreto encontré uno que me parecio interesante por su simplicidad y facilidad de uso, el porque motivos visitar un sitio u otro. Explicaciones para dar ideas y poder disfrutar esos dias de descans o rutas. Sobretodo el de Dubai, que nunca se m ocurría ir, pero al leer temas sobre ello empieza animar a seguir investigando sobre ello. La web me ha traido muchas inpiraciones para proximas escapadas las cuales espero poder cumplir, y contaroslo también mediante esta página los detalles y mis consejos.

Gracias civitatis por información

Next to go… to say ciao ciao Boss, then get things

route to Belgium.  Listening to “Hôtel Costes” and

watching how time pases through different worlds

and get to know at last Amsterdam… first dutch coffee

No hay mucho que añadir cuando las palabras son claras aún en inglés, próxima estación: Bélgica. Una serie de cosas antes como decir adios al Jefazo, último café español, coger la bolsa con cuatro cosas y rumbo norte a los países bajos. Escuchando a la vez a “Hôtel Costes” y ver el tiempo pasar en diferentes lugares, y por fin conocer Amsterdam,… mi primer “café holandés…

Scotland…Unknown Pleasures


Ver mapa más grande
         As an old Scots saying has it, ‘guid gear comes in sma’ bouk’ (good things come in small packages). And despite its small size, Scotland certainly has many treasures crammed into its compact territory. There’s something for all tastes. For the history buff, few cities compare with Edinburgh and Glasgow; for the hungry, try haggis if you must but don’t miss the Angus beef or smoked salmon or, for the thirsty, the peerless malt whiskies. There is wild mountain Glen Coe scenery of the Highlands and cold, sparkling seas washing against the Outer Hebrides. Wildlife watchers will find otters, eagles, whales and dolphins, while hill walkers have almost 300 Munros to bag.

There’s turbulent history and fascinating genealogy, castles and country pubs, canoeing and caber-tossing, golfing and fishing and all-round good craic (lively conversation). Although an integral part of Great Britain since 1707, Scotland has maintained a separate and distinct identity throughout the last 300 years. The return of a devolved Scottish parliament to Edinburgh in 1999 marked a growing confidence and sense of pride in the nation’s achievements.

               I will have to go back, I forgot to try the Haggies!

No profesional experience, no reality show or nothing to do with any companies. This is just a small part of a “diary-trip” which will try to explain the most subconciously way every detail of the places visited in our planet.  It might get boring for who  don´t feel intereested of reading and knowing about different countries and cities, but it will be my complete “second” opinion for travellers which will be looking for new adventures,  relax moments and such.  So feel free to investigate my diary-trips or change web!dsc_3861

Bueno por si el Inglés resulta ser cansino, aquí ya lo pongo todo en español:

Sin experiencia profesional, ni siendo un reality show ni nada que ver con empresas ni negocios.  Este es un pequeño espacio de mi “diario de un viajero” que intentaré explicar de la manera mas inconsciente (o simple) los lugares visitados en nuestro planeta. Puede que resulte aburrido para aquellos que no sienten ningún interés de diferentes países o ciudades, pero será mi “segunda” opinión para aquellos viajeros en busca de aventuras, momentos de relax y de por el estilo. Así eres libre de investigar mi diario de viajes o de cambiar de web!
