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.

* 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.

The hidden-gem arch beach in Southern Italy that I literally can’t stop thinking about. 

I couldn’t spend endless days here swimming, reading and chilling in the sun. ☀️ Counting down the days till my return.
