Meet Dora - Trip Experiences

Hello and welcome to my world of Trip Experiences.

I’m Cypriot, with a London touch, living on the ancient island of Cyprus, the birthplace of Aphrodite. I love travelling and most of all I love blogging about it. I hope you find some interesting information here. If you have any comments or recommendations, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Trip Experiences is a travel blog that shares real stories, family trips, and easy guides for places around the world. The website began with my love of travel and my desire to help people plan simple, fun trips without stress.

Here you will find guides, hotel reviews, activities for kids, city posts, and seasonal events. Each post is based on my own trips, with clear tips to help you know what to expect before you book or visit.

Trip Experiences covers Cyprus and many other countries. The goal is to provide readers with honest travel advice and practical details, such as where to stay, what to eat, how to get around, and what is worth seeing with or without kids.

And a piece of advice: Travel as much as you can and gain as many travel experiences as you can, because life is short and the only things that will last are our memories and the emotions we have gained from the places we have been to. Don’t buy things, buy experiences! The most valuable currency there is.

My Travel Stories

“I enjoyed a cruise in the Norwegian fjords, had a dinner 327 meters underground at Wieliczka salt mine in Krakow, felt sad at the Auschwitz concentration camps in Poland, waited for a delayed train in snowy Myrdal in Norway (altitude 866 m) at -15 degrees Celsius, got on the Flam Railway, one of the world’s steepest railway lines, went on a 7 hours road trip from Paris to Perros-Guirec (580 km) in one day, stepped on the Pink Granite Coast in France, walked from Germany to Poland (Slubice) by crossing the boarders in Frankfurt Oder, watched the Disney parade in Paris Disneyland, tasted a 50 years aged wine in Lisbon, felt amazed by seven million tulips in Keukenhof in Holland, I’ve almost fallen off a Yatch in Milos on a windy day, twisted my ankle in Milan, got the train from Newcastle to Liverpool and back on the same day (8 hours travelling), had a drink at an ice bar in Stockholm, tossed a coin in Fontana di Trevi, enjoyed the best sunset in Santorini, toured 3 Greek islands on a motorbike, experienced an opera in Verona, stepped on James Bond Island in Thailand, visited the Peles Castle in Romania on a snowy day – it was like a fairytale – experienced walking the Great Wall of China, admired the Bund view in Shanghai, wandered through the narrow streets of Doha,  soaking in the vibrant local culture, marveled at the iconic Sydney Opera House, explored the breathtaking Blue Mountains, and scanned the horizon in Australia hoping of spotting majestic whales.
