Travel has been difficult this past year due to COVID. We were fortunate enough that we were able to travel to Boston to visit my family at the end of May and celebrate Isabella’s first birthday. However, we were desperate to have a true ‘beach break’ this summer. We also wanted to take advantage of […]

This past Easter vacation we found ourselves with a four-day weekend and nowhere to travel to. Travel within Germany is still not allowed – hotels and Airbnbs are closed for tourism – and leaving the country is complicated, between PCR tests and quarantine regulations. Therefore, we had to look closer to our hometown of Berlin […]

JC and I have now flown twice to Thessaloniki in the last two months to relax and enjoy warm weather, amazing Greek food and beautiful beaches. With Greece being one of the only countries in Europe not on Germany’s COVID-19 risk list, it is the perfect getaway during these unprecedented times. A beach vacation is […]
