Off to Dubai!

Dear readers,

Today is the day! Our suitcases are packed, the house is left clean, Chester (my chinchilla) is at my parents house for the time we're away and we're both so excited to get to know another country! Yes, it is time for DUBAI! There was however a slight change in hotels. We are no longer staying at the Raffles Dubai, but at Auris Plaza Dubai. I'll make sure to upload my Dubai photos as soon as I get back.

Speak to you soon! Off we go!

Oh btw, did you know we are flying with the BIGGEST passenger airplane in the whole wide world? That's right: we're flying with Emirates Airbus A380 :D

See you later!

Love, Melissa

P.S. If you got tips for Dubai, please let me know!

Malaga 2012

Dear readers,

I still owed you the photos of my birthday trip to Malaga, so here they are! Hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed the trip! What a way to celebrate your 27th birthday, right? :) So thankful to my parents for giving me such a great gift for my birthday! Speaking of which, I threw another birthday party for my friends last week. Will post some photos of it soon!

Talk to you later!

Love, Melissa

Malaga!

Dear readers,

I am turning 27 this coming Tuesday, October 2 and as a pre-birthday gift my parents decided to give me a get-away to...MALAGA!

Honestly, I can REALLY use the time away to enjoy the sun, the beach, good food, some shopping, quality time with my family and who knows what else!

I am leaving today and I am going for 5 days, but I'll make sure to post regularly on this blog.

Talk to you soon and as always, if any of you have great tips for where to go in Malaga, let me know!

Love, Melissa

DUBAI!!!

Dear readers,

I wanted to share with you that my boyfriend and I booked our tickets to Dubai and I am SOOOOOO thrilled! We are leaving on November 2, so there is still some time left, but I cannot tell you enough how excited I am to be going there! Has any of you been to Dubai before? If so, leave your tips in the comments below! :)

Anyway, we are going for 9 days and are staying in Hotel Raffles Dubai (see picture below). I love luxury, can you tell? I only have to refer you to the name of this blog hehe ;)

Oh and another thing, we are flying with Emirates' Airbus A380, which is the biggest passenger airplane in the world! Remember the scene in the movie Sex and the City 2 where the girls are indulging in the extravaganza of the airplane? EXACTLY...that's the plain we are flying on :)

Of course, when the time has come I will tell you all about my plans! :)

Love, Melissa

Berlin 2012 was EPIC!

Dear readers,

Yesterday I got back from my trip to Berlin and boy, what a trip it was! Berlin never ceases to amaze me! If any of you have ever been there, I am sure you agree with me :) From Wednesday till Sunday we were with a total of 12 people and from Sunday till yesterday it was just me and my boyfriend. I think it's great to be out with a group, but I also find it important to have some down time with just my boyfriend. So what did we do? We went clubbing EVERY SINGLE NIGHT, we hired a tandem, we segwayed, we enjoyed ourselves at one of the many small beach terraces of Berlin, we shopped, we had very good food, we visited some cultural stuff and we LAUGHED...A LOT!!! :)

Here some random shots of our trip to Berlin.

So, just an impression of my quick holiday. Hope you enjoyed the pictures! Soon I will dedicate a post to all of the amazing clubs of Berlin, so you guys can enjoy them yourselves when travelling to Berlin.

Love, Melissa
