‘Another island?’ It’s no secret that I am extremely fascinated by islands. The proximity of the sea, a straightforward layout and often unique culture will never tire me.
When a burn-out hit me a year ago, I decided to independently go on a long distance hike around the Canarian island of La Gomera to walk myself back to health.
With lots of pleasure I have watched the first season of the BBC series Versailles. An entertaining portrayal of the Louis XIV court with an abundance of intrigues and affaires. From an historical point of view certainly not a reliable eyewitness account, but definitely proof that the palace of Versailles is a place that still fascinates many people. An excellent occasion to shine a light on some of the most remarkable aspects of the real Versailles.
The combination of garlic, smoked paprika and olive oil is what for me makes a perfect paella.
