November 28, 2018 by Life is a Hotel

Welcome to Podgorica, the capital of Montenegro

November 3, 2018 by Life is a Hotel

Visiting Balkans was always on my bucket list. Last summer I had a unique chance to visit Montenegro and to stay in Podgorica in luxurious Hilton Podgorica Crna Gora. Podgorica is not a big capital city like Berlin, Brussels, Prague or Warsaw. This is a small city (almost 190.000 habitats) with a unique atmosphere that you should discover on your own!

Viking Line ship from Stockholm to Turku

August 8, 2018 by Life is a Hotel

In order to get to Turku, I took a ferry from Stockholm. That was actually my first experience with a shipping company Viking Line, which was very positive. Most of their ships are very modern and offer a lot of attractions like bars, lounges, duty-free shops, casino, clubs, restaurants and comfortable rooms.
