Two of my greatest joys in life are hiking and trekking, and eating excellent or interesting food. Unfortunately, I didn’t have much of an opportunity to try traditional Greenlandic food during my 5 week visit in 2017. The best I managed was a Musk Ox Sled Dog and some whale at the amazing CaféTuaq in the

Attending a cooking class and learning how to make some of the local dishes is one of the things I love to do while travelling in new countries. No surprises then, that one of the first things I did when researching “Things to do in Kathmandu” was to seek out such an opportunity. I decided

Back in January, I ate my way through many of the Portuguese treats on offer in Porto whilst visiting my friends for a week. Well, 6 months later I was back. And having just stretched my stomach enormously by trying as much of the typical food in the Azores as possible, there was more to

For the second time this year I found myself visiting my friends in Portugal and eating waaaaaaaay too much food! This trip I added a few more Porto dishes some others from the Algarve, but this post focuses on the food of the Azores, where I spent 5 days exploring the largest island – São Miguel. For those
After 2 weeks of hiking in great weather in South Greenland, I arrived to cold, wet and wind in the capital, Nuuk. I was picked up at the airport by my Airbnb host, Rene, and taken to the accommodation. It was absolutely awesome – my own space with a separate entrance, fridge, microwave and bathroom, and only
