(ricordi) Astana (o Nursultan) è la futuristica capitale del Kazakistan, meglio di un parco divertimenti per gli appassionati di architettura.

(ricordi) Anche nei dintorni di Almaty, oltre che nel centro cittadino, ci sono vari siti che meritano attenzione.
Ecco qualche spunto:

[NEW POST] Con Vienna ho sempre avuto un rapporto un po' complicato, tanto che ci sono dovuto tornare dopo 30 anni per fare la pace.
Alla fine è andata bene, la capitale austriaca si è dimostrata piacevole e con molti spunti interessanti anche parecchio diversificati.

This week, I had a second go at collecting every single one of the Taipei MRT station stamps in one day.

What are station stamps? Many places in Taiwan (museums, railway stations, temples, even some restaurants), have unique rubber stamps that visitors can ink up and collect in a notebook. If you hunt around every MRT station in Taipei, you’ll find one. They’re usually kept close to the ticket barriers nearest the staffed help desk, and most are located outside the ticket barriers in the unpaid area of the station.

When the new TPass (a travel pass which gives you access to all MRT stations, train stations, buses and YouBikes across Taipei, New Taipei, Keelung and Taoyuan for NT$1200/month) was released, I decided to try and visit every single MRT station in one day. I failed. But that first attempt made me even more sure that it was possible, and determined to give it a second shot.

So that’s how I spent my day off this week. 
It took me almost exactly 17 hours to collect every single stamp, and in the process of doing so, I travelled over 180km. It is not something I am ever planning on doing again. (But I’ve heard there will be a new stop on the red line in the not too distant future…)

It's #TravelTuesday! I've missed the last couple of weeks because I've been, well, #traveling... I'm just back from the #Netherlands where I spent some time on a #workcation in The Hague before and after speaking at #DOES23 in #Amsterdam.
Wondering if The Hague is worth visiting? Check out my write-up ⬇️

Where are we heading on this, our very first, trip to the #Azores? We will be visiting #SaoMiguel and #Terceira.

I plan to live tweet all the fun for the next week or so.

Let's hope our flight is on time. We can't wait to get going!

In the past, I've live tweeted #trips I've taken. As a #TravelBlogger, it makes outlining and writing blog posts easier after I get home. It's amazing how quickly you forget little details if you don't write them down. Should I live toot as well? I'm curious how engagement would compare to the blue bird. Shall we do an experiment?

It's #MagazineMonday. I'm on vacation in the #Azores and thought I'd share my #Flipboard magazine on discovering #Portugal. Have a browse and give it a follow. I'll be adding lots of new posts from this and future trips.

I felt the creative juices flowing this weekend and created a new design featuring a #rainbow of #Portugal #doors (mostly from #Lisbon).

I think this would look nice on a #postcard or #notecard

What do you think? Should I make some for my correspondence? 😄

I spotted this gem of a #tree in the park in Campo de Ourique this weekend and thought "yup, that's my submission for #ThickTrunkTuesday this week sorted!"

It's #ThickTrunkTuesday. Perusing my #TravelPhoto archives, I found this picture of an amazing ceiba #tree in Arenal National Park in Costa Rica. A forest hike in Costa Rica is definitely something to add to your bucket list. You never know when you might spot a rare bird or a sloth when you look up!

It's #TravelTuesday! This week, I thought I'd share a post that I wrote about visiting the National Tile Museum in #Lisbon.

The tiled facades in #Portugal are one of the country's most iconic architectural features.

Learn all about the history of Portuguese #azulejos and see some amazing examples all in one place at the National Tile Museum!

What timing for #StandingStoneSunday! Spotted this gem on a tour and winetasting visit to a #winery in #Portugal yesterday.

This #menhir was discovered in the vineyard of Adega José de Sousa in #Alentejo. It is believed to be 6-8 thousand years old. You can still see markings on the side that was buried in the dirt and protected from erosion. The circles of different sizes and thought to be a celestial map or a census of local populations at the time.

Went to see the largest nativity scene in #Portugal in Vila Real de Santo Antonio in the East #Algarve.

TIL: The Cagón or Caganer

"It is a statuette that was usually placed in the nativity scene in Catalonia, Valencia and Canary Islands. The statuette (a peasant with red cap) was hiding behind a shrub or tree to make poop. This tradition emerged at the end of the seventeenth century with a baroque cultural and artistic movement."

Found him! 😂
