A few nights at Sina The Gray in Milan — perfectly placed just steps from the Galleria and the Duomo, with a design that feels uniquely different from the usual city hotel formula. 

The location really does all the heavy lifting here, making it an easy base for wandering Milan’s historic center without ever needing much more.

ROTTERDAM: Quick Travel Guide

While all the full guides are now live on the blog, here’s the quick, condensed version for Rotterdam. Make sure to SAVE for future trip planning. 

See & Do
* Stroll Markthal and look up — that ceiling is basically edible art.
* Wander the Cube Houses and yes, they’re just as mind-bending in person.
* Walk or bike across the Erasmus Bridge for that signature skyline moment.
* Visit Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen — the mirrored art storage building everyone photographs (because, obviously).
* Hop the water taxi (fun + functional) to feel the city’s maritime heartbeat.
* Day Trip: Kinderdijk — iconic Dutch windmills and wide-open polder landscapes. A calm breather from the city’s bold architecture.

Sleep 🛌 
* Hotel Ame — Soft neutrals, Japanese-Scandi minimalism, and a gorgeous café for slow mornings.
* Hotel New York — Retro maritime grandeur on the harbor. Like stepping into old transatlantic romance — but with cocktails. 

Eat & Drink 🍸 
* Héroine Restaurant & Bar — Atmospheric tasting menus that lean playful and poetic.
* Zeezout — Elegant seafood with serious finesse.
* PUTAINE — Inventive plates by the water; cool without trying too hard.
* Restaurant Fred — Two Michelin stars. Precision, elegance, commitment. Dress up.
* Nine Bar — Strong espresso, local neighborhood vibe, no pretension.
* Hotel Ame Café — Calm, design-driven, slow living energy in cup form.

ROTTERDAM: Quick Travel Guide While all the full guides are now live on the blog, here’s the quick, condensed version for Rotterdam. Make sure to SAVE for future trip planning. See & Do * Stroll Markthal and look up — that ceiling is basically edible art. * Wander the Cube Houses and yes, they’re just as mind-bending in person. * Walk or bike across the Erasmus Bridge for that signature skyline moment. * Visit Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen — the mirrored art storage building everyone photographs (because, obviously). * Hop the water taxi (fun + functional) to feel the city’s maritime heartbeat. * Day Trip: Kinderdijk — iconic Dutch windmills and wide-open polder landscapes. A calm breather from the city’s bold architecture. Sleep 🛌 * Hotel Ame — Soft neutrals, Japanese-Scandi minimalism, and a gorgeous café for slow mornings. * Hotel New York — Retro maritime grandeur on the harbor. Like stepping into old transatlantic romance — but with cocktails. Eat & Drink 🍸 * Héroine Restaurant & Bar — Atmospheric tasting menus that lean playful and poetic. * Zeezout — Elegant seafood with serious finesse. * PUTAINE — Inventive plates by the water; cool without trying too hard. * Restaurant Fred — Two Michelin stars. Precision, elegance, commitment. Dress up. * Nine Bar — Strong espresso, local neighborhood vibe, no pretension. * Hotel Ame Café — Calm, design-driven, slow living energy in cup form.

A few nights at Sina The Gray in Milan — perfectly placed just steps from the Galleria and the Duomo, with a design that feels uniquely different from the usual city hotel formula. 

The location really does all the heavy lifting here, making it an easy base for wandering Milan’s historic center without ever needing much more.

ROTTERDAM: Quick Travel Guide

While all the full guides are now live on the blog, here’s the quick, condensed version for Rotterdam. Make sure to SAVE for future trip planning. 

See & Do
* Stroll Markthal and look up — that ceiling is basically edible art.
* Wander the Cube Houses and yes, they’re just as mind-bending in person.
* Walk or bike across the Erasmus Bridge for that signature skyline moment.
* Visit Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen — the mirrored art storage building everyone photographs (because, obviously).
* Hop the water taxi (fun + functional) to feel the city’s maritime heartbeat.
* Day Trip: Kinderdijk — iconic Dutch windmills and wide-open polder landscapes. A calm breather from the city’s bold architecture.

Sleep 🛌 
* Hotel Ame — Soft neutrals, Japanese-Scandi minimalism, and a gorgeous café for slow mornings.
* Hotel New York — Retro maritime grandeur on the harbor. Like stepping into old transatlantic romance — but with cocktails. 

Eat & Drink 🍸 
* Héroine Restaurant & Bar — Atmospheric tasting menus that lean playful and poetic.
* Zeezout — Elegant seafood with serious finesse.
* PUTAINE — Inventive plates by the water; cool without trying too hard.
* Restaurant Fred — Two Michelin stars. Precision, elegance, commitment. Dress up.
* Nine Bar — Strong espresso, local neighborhood vibe, no pretension.
* Hotel Ame Café — Calm, design-driven, slow living energy in cup form.
