My father turned 60 in the fall and we had discussed a trip for about a year. It took us ages to decide whether we’d travel with my parents only or if the whole family would join. In the end, we all joined them down to Vlycha Beach on Rhodes […]
A visit to Rhodes wouldn’t be complete without a visit to the main town, also named Rhodes. It is a town with two very distinct parts. It is a place where the old and the new are separated by double walls. Once home to one of the Seven Wonders of […]
If you consider Rhodes City touristy, that is nothing in comparison with Lindos. This little town with its small white houses, narrow streets, sandy beaches, and a massive acropolis seems to be crowded with visitors. Finding Somewhere to Park If you arrive in Lindos before noon you might think that […]
It was one place in particular on Rhodes that proved the island to be a Mediterranean paradise. With a monastery on a hilltop and a long sandy beach at the sea, Tsambika had it all, the challenging climb, the view, and the relaxing atmosphere mixed with the activities of the […]
Only a 25 minutes drive from Lindos is the small village of Asklipio. Well-hidden in the mountains this village houses one of the more impressive castle ruins on the island, the Castle of Asklipio. There’s also the added perk of enjoying the spectacular view all the way back to the […]
Visiting Rhodes usually means spending a lot of time along its coastline. But what is inland? We opted for a short road trip to find out. We were going to head towards the island’s highest peak, Attavyros, at 1215 meters above the sea. That is how we ended up in […]
There are plenty of ruins of old castles on Rhodes. One of these is the Feraklos Castle right outside the village of Charaki. This is a ruin with a view like few others. My brother and I decided to take a short trip from Vlycha Beach to see the castle […]
When planning our trip to California, we didn’t initially consider Livermore. As a matter of fact, we didn’t even know it existed. However, we are happy that we did find this small town and could use it as our base for our week on the American west coast. We had […]
We might not have known much about Californian nature beforehand, but we had heard about the redwoods. After our crazy day trip to Yosemite a few days earlier with Stephanie, it was time to meet up with her once more for new adventures. This time it was a visit to […]
We hope that the new year has started well and that you are enjoying 2020! It’s now time for us to summarize our top 10 posts and other interesting statistics from 2019. As we really enjoy numbers and statistics, this something we have done each year since we founded The Biveros […]
I was probably not the only one dreaming about the NHL as a kid. Playing the video games, collecting the cards, checking the results first thing in the morning (the games were always played after bedtime – a problem when growing up in Sweden). Having idols such as Peter Forsberg, […]
What to do a lazy day in Livermore, California? There seem to be two major attractions in this smallish Tri-valley city and those are shopping and wine. The town is famous for one specific thing. Actually, it’s the one thing that made us choose the town as our base. The […]
