#citytrips

Yes, I’m well aware that a blogpost about Amsterdam would be more appropriate on this historic Queen’s Day, but by now you already know the.ego.tripper doesn’t care much for what is right and what is wrong. And there’s definitely nothing wrong with Vienna. If you follow me on twitter or Facebook, you might have noticed [...]

When people ask me – and they often do – where they should go on holiday or on city trip, I obviously reply: I do not care. I repeat, I do not care. Honestly, I don’t care where you go or have been. You see, this is the.ego.tripper. Need I say more? Nah, just kidding, [...]

Peepz, have I told you recently that I love you all? I don’t think so. But I do. Kinda. Well, I don’t really love you in that way, I just like the fact you visit the.ego.tripper, cause this virtual traffic allows me travel more. And I love you for it! Also, it’s gonna be Valentine’s [...]

Howdy how, dear friends. How are you today? Cold, snowy? Yeah, me too. I even fell off my bike today, but luckily there was a red car – possibly a Ferrari – and its side mirror to keep me somewhat upright. If you happen to be the owner of this car, I’m truly sorry. Anyway, [...]

She farted. I’m sitting in the Fyra train from Amsterdam to Antwerp and all I can think is: she farted, that old bitch next to me. “Someone farted”, I tell my wife who’s sitting right in front of me. She doesn’t smell it. In the corner of my eye I can see the farting lady [...]

Let me disappoint you right away: this blogpost is not about taking a shit in Seattle. NOT! No, for once my number 2 has got nothing to do with feces. Instead, the number two represents the second chance I ought to give Seattle. (it’s also the second coolest city in the American North West, right [...]

Hola, que tal, hombres y mujeres, niños y niñas? Comò estais hoy? Bien? Alright, good! That concludes your Spanish lesson for today. But not to worry, ladies and gentlemen, there is more Spain (not Spanish) to come. As you can read in the title, this blogpost is all about the wonderful town of Cádiz, in [...]

Before I start to explain to you how brilliant the title of this blogpost is, I must warn you. My ego just got a lot bigger (you could already feel a hint of arrogance in that first sentence, couldn’t you?). Why? Mainly because the awesome Belgian travel magazine ‘Grande’ wrote an article on the.ego.tripper. And [...]

Have I told you the story of how I went to Bratislava (for those of you who are drawing a blank right now: it’s the capital of Slovakia, for those of you still drawing a blank: buy an atlas) and didn’t really fall in love? Probably not, because I’ve been so busy telling you about [...]

What is up, dear ego.trippers? I will tell you what is up: Edinburgh! Yes sir, Edinburgh has got it going on, no? Have you ever been? For me it’s been a long time, but I couldn’t remember telling you about this trip. So I used the search function at the top of this page. The [...]

Ladies and gentlemen, damer och herrar, the.ego.tripper is confused. Yesterday I came back from my long weekend in Stockholm with a bit of a bad feeling. A bit of disappointment, I think it was. But when I look at my pictures now, I can hardly believe I found Stockholm only ‘so so’. I’m definitely not [...]

So what are you doing on new year’s eve? What, What? Is that such a crazy question? The summer’s coming to an end, so it’s time to start planning NYE. The question is gonna come anyway, sooner and sooner every year, or so it seems. I always say: ABROAD. Even when I’m not going abroad [...]
