MAKE YOURSELF AT HOME
Traveling these days is slightly difficult. However, I would like to continue this blog, so I decided to add another passion of mine: interior! Because of the big C, we’re spending a lot of time at home. Luckily Youness and I just moved out of our little apartment to this beautiful spacious house. So I saw the perfect opportunity to start a new instagram page: @leylahlifestyle. On my feed you’ll find pictures of our interior, (previous) travels and beautiful cats Leylah and Samra. What would you like to read on my blog? Instagram gave me such a positive vibe during this whole period, so I though: why not extend it…

TOP 7 THINGS TO DO IN BRUSSELS
Last year Youness and I said that 2020 was the year we were going to travel a lot. But then, well you know what happened. Though we can’t travel at the moment, that doesn’t mean we can’t share our travel stories to inspire you. The last trip we did before the coronavirus outbreak was a weekend to Brussels. A city so nearby, but that I never visited. Brussels is not only the capital of Belgium, it’s also the center of Europe. That means a lot of diplomats and business people. But it’s also a city of street art, vintage shopping, waffles and of course Manneken Pis. Perfect ingredients for a fun…

AGADIR
Agadir is a more modern city in the southern part of Morocco. In 1960 the city was totally destroyed by an earthquake and left many people dead, injured or homeless. Agadir was in ruins. One year later King Mohammed V ordered to rebuilt the city. The architecture is therefore different than anywhere else in Morocco. Everywhere you see beautiful and luxurious resorts, hotels and a brand new beach and harbour promenade. In that way, Agadir is unlike the Morocco you’ll find anywhere else in the country. The architecture is more modern, there is no old town medina, and hotel resorts lie side by side, which makes the city seem less authentic…

WHERE TO GO IN WASHINGTON DC
During our 10-day trip to New York, we also went to Washington DC. It’s just a four-hour drive from New York, and of course the capital and the political center of the United States. So definitely worth a visit if you have the time. We only had one full day in DC (that’s how the locals call it, and so do we now). We couldn’t see everything, but I will tell you all about the things we did do. We took the bus from NY to DC, which was cheap and easy. When we arrived to DC it was such a different feeling compared to New York. It was less…

FAVORITE SPOTS IN NANCY
Most of you probably know Nancy in France. Maybe you went there, or maybe you just passed it on your way to the south of France. It is Youness’ hometown, so you can imagine we go there often. I didn’t only fell in love with Youness, but also a little bit with the city! So next time it’s on your way, it will be definitely worth a visit. Therefore I’ll show you a few of my favorite spots in Nancy. I visited Nancy in all the seasons, and I can’t tell you which is my favorite one. This time we visited Nancy in fall, where we could see the colored…
