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 [...]

Hello old friends, how are you today? OK, OK, I’ll cut the sweettalk. I need something. Something you could give me. I need an idea, people. I need to know where I can go to have an EPIC New Year’s Eve. And you’re gonna help me. Please. So, these last couple of years I’ve always [...]

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 [...]

Ow man, I’m still recovering from my trip to Budapest last weekend. Ow man, my head’s still spinning and my feet still hurt. But ow man, did I have an amazing time! Obviously I didn’t see much of the city this time (although I slept it off on the Hop On Hop Off Bus), cause [...]

Good evening, folks, how are you? Are you feeling the heat? I am! Djeez, 31 degrees in Antwerp today and probably still 26 degrees Celsius this evening. Feels terrible, doesn’t it? I prefer 120 degrees Fahrenheit in Death Valley, honestly. But luckily I bought pomegranates to cool me down. And while I was peeling the [...]

God morgen, my dearest the.ego.tripper.fans, hur mår du? Köttbullar, knäckebrot. Alright, you got me, Swedish is not a language I’m very familiar with. But that will change in the near future. Yes, yesterday I booked a flight to Stockholm for the very first weekend of September. And I must say I’m quite excited. I’ve been [...]

I have said it before and I will say it again: Thank God it’s Friday. What I actually mean is this: Thank God it’s Flyday! Yes, people, Brussels Airlines is offering three 99 euro roundtrip destinations today: Warsaw, Berlin and Vienna. Damn hard to make a choice, I tells ya! I actually should go for [...]

Howdy folks, since I don’t have much time to write today – I am actually going to Amsterdam for a Tenacious D. concert – I will keep it short and simple. You know by now how I love my classics: Paris, Barcelona, Tokyo, Venice, London, Sydney … Today you can add Florence to that list. [...]

Because the.ego.tripper is becoming more and more known, appreciated and loved, I’ve gotten numerous emails from different tourism offices from all over the world. (Psht: I’m exaggerating). The destination that caught my eye this time was Hannover. Yes, Germany’s Hannover, in the lovely state of Lower Saxony (where you can obviously have lower sax, but [...]

Alright folks, as I promised earlier, I would show you more pictures of Antwerp, my beloved hometown. I’ve been walking the dog intensively over the past couple of weeks, holding the leash in one hand and my phone in the other. Here’s what we’ve seen. (Don’t forget to view the previous dog walk post for [...]

I don’t think I’ve told you about my favorite citytrip destination within Europe, have I? I know I shared the secret of La Gomera with you, but you couldn’t call that a citytrip. This one is no secret though. On the contrary, Prague is a major tourist hotspot. But I still love it. Prague just [...]
