3 Cities in 7 Days - Nice, France
We collaborated with a Finnish Travel agency Tjäreborg to make an epic 7 day trip through 3 beautiful cities in Southern Europe. First stop was Nice in France. This was a first time to visit Nice for both of us and we were very excited for our time there. Nice is an amazing city, where you can choose to spend your days laying on the beach and have a refreshing swim in the sea or explore the colourful streets of the beautiful city.
We arrived to Nice when it was already dark and we just dropped our stuff to the hotel. Then headed to have some dinner in the city. We had been excited to go and see the beach in the morning, but it was actually little rainy the next day which in not normal for Nice. It wasn't raining much and it didn't stop us from enjoying the city. We ended up renting city bikes by our hotel, which we think was the best decision to make on our visit in Nice. When you rent a city bike, you can always return the bike to a bike station located around the city and go on foot when you wan't to see something more closely. We got a very good picture of the whole city when we biked and explored the streets. The next day forecast said that the weather will be perfect and we decided to head over to the La Tour Bellanda to catch the sunrise. It is such a nice place to see the beach and the city when the sun rises. After seeing the beautiful sunrise it was time to head over to the beach before leaving to the airport to catch our flight to Barcelona, Spain.

Our tips for Nice, France:
- Rent a bike to see more of the city.
- See the sunrise or the sunset on La Tour Bellanda
- Have a nice Italian dinner at La Pizza Cresi
- Shop fresh fruits and bakings at Place Charles Félix in the morning.
Here is the photo story of our trip:
Paris by bike
I had 4 days to spend in Paris with no special plans. I had heard that bikes are the way to explore Paris, so that's what I decided to do. Of course I had some special places that I really wanted to visit as I was in PARIS!
I got to spend the days with my friends Logan and Garrett from the US. They were happy to explore the city by bikes too. We just picked up the bikes next to our hotel and it was so easy to get around and leave the bikes to their stations that were placed pretty much everywhere around the city. We found so many awesome stores and places when cruising around with no maps and plans. I recommend everyone doing the same if you have time for it!
Tip: Always return the bike before the 30 min time runs out to make it free! Then only money you pay is the day fee.
Here are some photos from the trip.

Road trip to Lofoten - Daniel & Dad
It was a regular thursday noon few weeks ago and I was having lunch with my dad. I happened to look at the weather app on my phone and it showed near perfect blue skies to Lofoten for the next 4 days. I said to my Dad that I'm leaving to Lofoten today! Then I realized that my dad had never been there and he had always enjoyed our photos and stories from our Lofoten road trips. Kind of as a joke I said to my dad that take few days off from work and come with me! My dad said that I really can't, I need to work and I have some meetings the next day. My dad started smiling and you could tell that he had already made a decision to go with me. He went back to work and arranged the meeting for next week and at 4PM we started our journey towards Norway, as I had packed everything while my dad finished his work for the day.
We had a car, tent, camping food and no plans.
