If anyone was wondering how did I end up in Aruba, this is probably a good time for a disclaimer. I actually took a three week intensive yoga teacher training on the island (with @yoga_girl). I am now both a yoga teacher, and pretty much an expert when it comes to places with vegan option … More Vegan and friends – Aruba
When I had first told my friends in Israel I was going to Aruba most of them were truly surprised that such a country even exists, and obviously could not place it on a map. For Americans, and perhaps Dutch people (as Aruba is a constituent country of the kingdom of the Netherlands) this is … More Vegan Aruba
Israelis tend to say that Tel-Aviv is a bubble, it’s like its own country, and that Tel-Avivian never leave the city. This is true to some extend, Tel-Aviv is definitely the most vibrant city in Israel, with the greatest selection of hangout venues, but there are still reasons to leave the city. As Tel-Aviv is … More Israeli Gypsies
One of Tel-Aviv’s biggest and most famous markets is the “Carmel” market. The Carmel market offers food, clothes, housewares, souvenirs and more. It’s a colorful, fun place to visit while in Tel-Aviv.

My journey did not end in London. After spending about a month there I continued to Edinburgh, which was my actual destination, as I am moving there to study. Truth be told, I knew very little about Edinburgh. I was accepted to Uni there, but I have never been before, and I was slightly apprehensive. … More Edinburgh’s Scene
After telling you about a few of less obvious picks for London, I’m gonna share a short list of cafes I liked best. All of which are located in central, well known areas in the city. Nordic Bakery I came across this place by accident, while I was trying to get to Farm Girl Cafe … More London’s Finest
As promised, here are a few recommendations for cafes in the Clerckenwell-Shoreditch area (for a couple more, see my previous post). As Clerckenwell and Shoreditch have so many cool places you can visit, it was not easy to narrow it down, but I did my best. Moreover, I’m sure there are many more cool spots I … More The (not so) Far East (London)
It is no secret that the best place to see street art in London is Shoreditch. For those of you who are less familiar with the city, Shoreditch is a trendy, artsy neighborhood at the east of London. Shoreditch is a pretty industrial area with a raw, hipster vibe to it. Though I am a … More Urban display
Hey’a, turns out I’m in London, and since London has so many cafes to offer, and so many people blogging about it anyway, I thought I might start with giving you a glimpse into a little less touristic neighborhood – Battersea.
