    • Swimming with sharks🦈 (English below) 🇳🇱 Of gewoon in een kunstwerk staan... Hierbij écht mijn allerlaatste foto’s van de kustplaats Geelong, vooral bekend als doorgang naar de Great Ocean Road vanaf Melbourne. ◾️Foto 1: deel van het openbare kunstwerk ‘North’ door Mark Stoner. Deze in totaal zeven zeilen (of dus haaienvinnen) aan het begin van de boulevard zijn tot maar liefst 3,5m hoog en zijn een ware blikvanger. ◾️Foto 2: kleurrijke muuschildering op restaurant Bistrot St Jean ◾️Foto 3: ‘Me, Myself and iPhone’ door Anne Anderson, kritiek op de obsessie met mobiele telefoons (oeps, schuldig 🙋🏽‍♀️) ◾️Foto 4: de ‘There There’ pub ◾️Foto 5: de tentoonstelling ‘Water drawing no. 1’ van Akio Makigawa aan het bewonderen in Geelong Gallery • 🇬🇧 Or just standing in an art installation... Hereby my very last photos of Geelong, a city mainly known with tourists as a passage to the Great Ocean Road from Melbourne. ◾️Photo 1: part of the public artwork ‘North’ by Mark Stoner. These seven sails (or shark fins), located by the boulevard, are up to 3.5 metres high and are a real eyecatcher. ◾️Photo 2: colourful mural on restaurant Bistrot St Jean ◾️Photo 3: ‘Me, Myself and iPhone’ by Anne Anderson, a critique of today’s obsession with phones (oops, guilty 🙋🏽‍♀️) ◾️Photo 4: the ‘There There’ pub ◾️Photo 5: admiring the exhibition ‘Water drawing no. 1’ by Akio Makigawa in Geelong Gallery • • • #geelong #arttrail #australia #greatoceanroad #downunder #oz #roadtrip #publicartwork #geelongboulevard #cultureblogger #cultuurblogger #reisblogger #kunstblogger #artblogger #travelblogger #ukblogger #dutchblogger #under1k #discoverunder1k #womenwhotravel #donethatbeenthere #comewithme #travelwithme #travelmonday #geelonggallery
    • Happy Sunday! (English below)🇳🇱Terwijl ik hier mijn laatste foto’s deel van onze dag in Geelong, Australië, aan de start van de Great Ocean roadtrip (waarover binnenkort meer op m’n blog), bereid ik me voor op de twee rondleidingen door Shoreditch in oost-Londen vandaag. Naast bloggen en ‘grammen’ geef ik namelijk ook Nederlandse rondleidingen in Londen. • Wat zijn jouw zondagplannen? • Trouwens, vind je ook niet dat de cabines van het reuzenrad op de tweede foto lijken op popcorndoosjes? 😎 • 🇬🇧 While I’m sharing some of my last pictures of our day in Geelong, Australia, at the start of our Great Ocean Road road trip with you (more about this on my blog soon!), I’m currently preparing for the two tours through Shoreditch in East London I’ll be giving today. Because besides blogging and ‘gramming’ I also give walking tours in London (mostly in Dutch). • What are your plans for today? • By the way: do you also think those booths of the Ferris wheel in photo 2 look like popcorn boxes? 😎 • • • #geelong #australia #greatoceanroad #ukblogger #londontourguide #dutchblogger #travelblogger #reisblogger #roadtrip #roadtripping #comewithme #ferriswheel #reuzenrad #merrygoround #draaimolen #travelmemory #womenwhotravel #donethatbeenthere #travelphoto #under1k #discoverunder1k #downunder #oz
    • WELCOME TO MY CRIB! 🏡 (Scroll down for English) 🇳🇱Nog even over dat wolmuseum in Geelong, Australië (had het er in de vorige post al kort over). • De eerste Europese schapen maakten in 1788 de grote oversteek naar Australië hadden gemaakt en sindsdien is het land uitgegroeid tot de grootste producent van wol ter wereld! • Geelong ontwikkelde zich in de 19e eeuw uit tot het ‘wolcentrum van de wereld’ en is nu thuis van het meest omvattende wolmuseum van heel Australië. • Ik raad een bezoek aan het National Wool Museum echt aan. Het is een leuke en interessante manier om meer over de geschiedenis en cultuur van het land te weten te komen. • 🇬🇧Let's return to the Wool Museum in Geelong again for a moment (I mentioned it briefly in the previous post). • The first European sheep made their way to Australia in 1788 and since then, Australia has become the world's largest wool producer! • Geelong was the epicentre of it all in the 19th century and was even called the 'wool centre of the world' for a while. • I definitely recommend visiting the National Wool Museum. It's a fun and engaging way to learn more about the history and culture of the country. • • • #geelong #australia #greatoceanroad #travelblogger #dutchblogger #ukblogger #cultureblogger #reisblogger #under1k #discoverunder1k #roadtrip #australianroadtrip #womenwhotravel #greatoceanroadtrip #donethatbeenthere #travelphoto #travelinspiration #travelmemory #comewithme #downunder #oz #zarinatravels #contentcreator #cultuurblogger

  • Some more Portuguese street art for you, this time from Porto. This beautiful stencil is by French artist @guate.mao. It was my first introduction to his works, but I learned that he predominantly paints portraits of people from different ethnicities all over the world. • • • #stencil #streetart #stencilart #urbanart #streetartphoto #streetartporto #porto #streetartblogger #travelblogger #artblogger #cultureblogger #reisblogger #kunstblogger #cultuurblogger #dutchblogger #ukblogger #freeart #publicart #artiseverywhere #lookaroundyou #stencilartist #dutchgirlinlondon #portugal
  • Too bad for that hair right across my face. Else it would’ve been quite a nice photo 🤣 Can’t believe this was taken in Porto only a few days ago. Our Portugal trip seems like months ago already! The impressive bridge you see in the background here is the D. Maria Pia Bridge in Porto. It was built in 1877 and designed by Gustave Eiffel - yes, the same Eiffel as the Eiffel Tower - and his business partner Théophile Seyrig. • • • #porto #bridge #architecture #eiffel #gustaveeiffel #douro #travelblogger #reisblogger #ukblogger #dutchblogger #portugal #portrait #dutchgirl #dutchgirlinlondon #discoverunder2k #under2k #womenwhotravel #travelmemory #wannabemodel
  • 🍁Can we please return to summer again?! ☀️ Considering it’s been such horrendous weather today, you might think these photos from Cornwall were taken today, but I actually took them last June... These aren’t just random pics of pretty sights in Cornwall though. This specific location played a significant role in the development of modern communication! ▪️Photo 1: the restored wooden huts where Italian inventor Guglielmo Marconi undertook groundbreaking experiments and received the world’s first long-distance wireless communication. On the left you see the Lizard Point lighthouse in the distance. Lizard Point is mainland Britain’s most southerly point and its coastline is extremely treacherous. The lighthouse opened in 1751 and is still in operation. The story goes that its light inspired Tolkien for the Eye of Sauron. ◾️Photo 2: Lloyd’s Signal Station, nowadays a luxury self-catered apartment (through @uniquehomestays) but originally built in 1872 as a communication hub for passing trading vessels. ◾️Photo 3: hubby (@robinrimbaud) inside Marconi’s hut. We were in Cornwall because hubby was working on an exiting project based around the theme of local communication projects throughout history. ◾️Photo 5: a replica of the radio used on the Titanic. Below it you see an authentic photo of the captain using the real radio on the Titanic. The photo was saved by a Jesuit priest who (lucky for him) didn’t get permission to travel to America and had to get off in Ireland! • • • #cornwall #lizardpoint @lovecornwalluk @visitengland @nationaltrust #historyofcommunication #historicalsites #visitcornwall #landscape #under2k #dutchblogger #ukblogger #travelblogger #cultureblogger #reisblogger #discoverunder2k
  • Whilst wandering around the lovely city of Braga, Portugal, I was surprised to stumble upon some street artworks and graffiti in a skate park. I had just visited the remains of an ancient Roman bath house and theatre just ‘round the corner from it and did not expect to find anything like this around. (The previous photo was also taken next to that skate park btw.) Roman ruins AND street art in one city? I’ve obviously found my ideal travel destination in Braga! 😎 This mural is by Lisbon-based artist @jorgecharrua1. • • • #streetart #mural #urbanart #muralart #braga #portugal @municipio_de_braga #visitbraga #artiseverywhere #freeart #contemporaryart #streetartportugal #streetartphoto #streetartblogger #travelblogger #reisblogger #dutchblogger #ukblogger #travelpic
  • 🍁AUTUMN in Braga, Portugal🍂 Currently visiting Braga in Portugal for hubby’s concert at electronic music festival Semibreve tomorrow night. While hubby’s been working, I’ve been exploring the city. I had never heard of Braga before but I completely fell in love with the city on day 1! It’s so quiet here, the people are super friendly and the city is blessed with the typical picturesque streets you’d imagine to find in Portugal. Oh and there are even ancient Roman ruins here and an impressive amount of churches! Braga’s been such a great discovery, I highly recommend visiting! • • • #visitbraga @municipio_de_braga #braga #portugal #visitportugal #minhoportugal #travelblogger #selfie #autumn #autumncolours #travelblogger #reisblogger #womenwhotravel #dutchblogger #ukblogger #discoverunder2k #under2k #selfie
  • 🎈SUNDAY = FUNDAY! 🎊 Due to a family emergency, these last two weeks have been rather intense for me. Now the situation’s thankfully improving, let’s have some fun today here, shall we? Here are some snaps of Amsterdam I took a few weeks ago and some facts relating to me and the city. 1. I was born in Amsterdam 40 years ago 2. I was the only baby girl in the maternity ward at the hospital and every time I started to cry, all the baby boys around me pitched in as well. According to my mum, the nurses nicknamed us ‘singing choir wèèèèèh’ 3. Since then I’ve hardly made any boys cry again, it’s been usually the other way ‘round 4. Until my late teens I loved Amsterdam and made many daytrips to the capital with friends to go out, take part in the legendary Queen’s Day celebrations (now King’s Day) and catch numerous concerts 5. From my late twenties I started to hate the city as it started to become extremely touristic. Especially the long street from the train station into the city centre is always packed with tourists who just come here for one main reason: to get wasted on drugs and alcohol 6. Now at 40, I still have a love-hate relationship with my birthtown. I try to stay out of the busy city centre as much as I can and explore the quieter sidestreets and neighbourhoods instead. I also love photographing the many crooked and wonky historical buildings. When you look closely at the trashy souvenir shops, you’ll see their facades still try to tell you about their centuries-old history and how they often functioned as offices in the peak of the Dutch maritime trade. How I’d wish to go back in time for the day and see what the city looked and sounded like then! • Today’s blog post is also about my mother country! I wrote why the Dutch government wants to ban the name ‘Holland’ in favour of ‘The Netherlands’ in their attempt to rebrand the country’s name internationally!
