When I got invited to Malta for a Military Heritage press trip, I really had no idea what to expect. Malta was never on my travel radar, and ‘military’ is not quite the reason I tend to choose travel destinations. My choice of travel destinations are greatly influenced by a country’s culture, gastronomic offerings, scenic trails and overall safety for women travelers. Little did I know this historically packed itinerary would encapsulate all this, and more!

After an epic tour around Rotterdam and beyond on Day 2, we decided to sleep in past 10 am and just made it to the communal breakfast at NH Jan Tabak Hotel.

Day 3

It was a lovely sunny morning, and we decided to do the 20 minute walk to the Bussum train station.

How scenic is the Bussum neighborhood?!

Hello darlings! Did you miss me? Sorry for the extended silence, I’ve been away on an exciting 3 day tour around Amsterdam. This Eid holiday was totally unexpected, and I have to say its been the best surprise I’ve ever received because I actually won this trip on radio!
