Before we went to Valencia as digital nomads, we genuinely did not know what to expect. We had heard it was good (and cheaper) than Madrid or Barcelona. After having lived here for almost two years, here’s our roundup of what we did, loved and would do again. Valencia is a beautiful and amazing city…
The short answer is yes Berlin is absolutely worth visiting, but when you go changes the experience almost completely. We spent over a week during the Berlin Festival of Lights and left completely obsessed with the city. Later, on two separate trips in March, the exact same city read as grey, quiet, and honestly a…
A honest guide to what to eat in Istanbul, from breakfast spreads and street corn to the fried chicken combo we keep going back for. Every time we go back to Istanbul, the trip ends up being planned around food more than anything else. We have eaten our way through breakfast tables in Fatih, chased…
We had been hearing about Istanbul for years before we finally went on our first trip. Everyone we knew who had been kept saying the same thing: you have to go. And honestly? They were so right that we ended up moving to Istanbul a few years after our first trip. Istanbul is one of…

Give it a few days and it turns into food streets that run until midnight, temples that glow orange at sunset, and views that make you stop mid-sentence. Here’s what…
Valencia used to be one of the most affordable cities in Spain when it came to accommodation, giving it a genuine advantage over Barcelona and Madrid. However, in 2026, the gap has narrowed sharply, but where you stay shapes your experience significantly. Here are some options to choose from. City Centre vs. Beach: The Main…
Between us, we have clocked a combined year and a half in Valencia, one of us for several weeks, the other as a full-time resident. We’ve navigated the visa process, the café culture, the apartment hunt, and the bureaucracy that comes with actually building a life here rather than just passing through. So here’s our…
