Spring in Amsterdam

When I say: Amsterdam , the first things that come to peoples minds are light drugs and the Red Light District. Although Amsterdam is the capital city of Netherlands, the government headquarters are in Haga.     Travel From Budapest, you can go by airplane with KLM directly or with WizzAir to Eindhoven and from here you can go by train which takes about 2 hours. Who would like to go by car it is possible. If you go by car you don’t have to pay for a toll, but the speed limit must be respected.  When we visited, we went to our friends, so we didn’t pay for the accommodation and get around.   You can use public transport with a rechargeable NFC card which you can use all over the Netherlands not only Amsterdam. Those cards you can buy at the bigger stations and you can fill it up at kiosks.   Outdoor We went in April, specially for the King’s Day event. This day is a holiday in Netherlands, people wear orange clothes and there are markets, parties and programs all over t

Small roundtrip around Europe

  It was an old plan, that we   wanted to travel around Europe by car.   We made it happen this spring exactly at Easter.  The destination was from Budapest to Switzerland, Mont Blanc, Monaco and Italy.     We left from Budapest on Thursday. We slept at a little familiar motel called Gasthaus Transilvania in Austria. We continued from here the next morning and we traveled all day and we arrived to Switzerland, Bulle in the evening.     On Saturday We visited the HR Giger Museum . Hans Rudolf Giger is the Swiss painter, artist and sculptor who won the Oscar award for his design of the creatures in the Alien film. So I recommend this museum who likes those films and mad arts. We went from Bulle to Montreux and we visited the Queen Studio Experience . You can see this for free. It wasn’t easy to find, because it was in the casino. From Montreux, We went to Chamonix by car and took about 1 hour. We visited the Mont Blanc which is the Alps’, West-Europe’s and the European Union
