5 fun things to do during your holiday in Ibiza

Ibiza Ibiza is still one of my favorite European islands for a long weekend getaway in the spring or fall. I first visited when I was 18. There wasn't a single club on the island where we didn't dance until the wee hours of the morning during our vacation. Now I love avoiding the crowds. I enjoy the beautiful views, sunsets, and tiny coves. Once you get to know Ibiza better, you discover how diverse it truly is and that two worlds exist side by side. An island where nothing is required, but everything is possible. You'll find all the tips in this Ibiza Travel Guide.

This is your ticket to Japan without taking a plane 🥢 @tewatashi.ams in De Pijp serves an authentic Edo-Mae Sushi Experience and is super consistent in their quality. It's the place we keep going back to when we have something to celebrate <3. In this video I'm sharing the 2 hour experience in 60 seconds. Still dreaming about the buttery ika nigiri. 🤤 ✖️✖️✖️ 🖊️ @anne_de_buck { one of the best authentic Japanese restaurants in Amsterdam serving premium sushi omakase in De Pijp }
𝗔 𝗯𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗰𝗮𝗳𝗲́ 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗔𝗺𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗱𝗮𝗺 𝗖𝗶𝘁𝘆? @eetcafe_de_reiger is the spot to remember. Cozy, casual, and a seasonal menu. This one was on my list to share for a year and finally it's (almost) asparagus season again! 🤤 Another plus? Prices are very reasonable here! 📍 Eetcafé de Reiger Jordaan, Amsterdam City Center Save this spot for when you're craving warm Dutch traditional dishes in the heart of Amsterdam. And did you hear the same team took over Eetcafé van Beeren? I can't wait to go there too! ✖️✖️✖️ 🖊️ @anne_de_buck
A grandma's cookbook. Three Michelin stars. And a beautiful 70s villa in a quiet neighborhood in Bangkok, where you are welcomed as if you were at the chefs' home. The Sühring brothers don't cook based on trends; they cook based on memories. Of their grandmother's farm, of the flavors of their youth in Germany, and of techniques passed down through generations. @relaischateaux invited me to experience Sühring during a solo lunch, and this is truly my ultimate definition of culinary self-care. This was a surprising afternoon in Bangkok, where I ate the best German food I have ever tasted. And that in a city where I normally avoid European restaurants. Well, for @restaurant_suhring, you really want to make that exception. Signature dishes that I still think back to regularly? 🍴 Labskaus with caviar 🍴 Enleta waffle with Pfalz vinegar 🍴 Game pâté 🍴 Dry-aged Duck TIP: When you go to Sühring, reserve seats at the kitchen bar so you have a view of the chefs at work! Follow @yourlbb for more tips you can trust. ✖️✖️✖️ 🖊️ @anne_de_buck #prinvited #bangkok #michelin #relaischateaux In this reels, I take you along for fine dining in Bangkok at the three-Michelin-starred restaurant Sühring.
This is one of the best free outings in the spring! Did you know that you can gather (or pick, for the connoisseurs 😉) oysters yourself at various locations in the Netherlands? I’m in Zeeland for a bit this weekend, and if we can make it, we’ll go again. 📍In this video, I show you where you can fill your bucket. Comment *oester* for the comprehensive guide with all the details about all 8 locations + handy tips and rules. Important to know: – Max. 10 kilos per person (≈ 1 bucket) – For personal use only – Do not scoop or scrape the seabed – Go at low tide Handy things to bring: Bucket, screwdriver, boots, work gloves, tea towel, clean clothes, and garbage bags (for the oysters *and* dirty clothes). And of course: bring an oyster knife, lemon, and champagne too 🍋🥂 Because you’ll want to taste something right away, won’t you! The oyster season runs from September to about April / early May, so now that the water isn't so cold, this is the perfect outing. In the full guide, I share exactly where you can easily find them, without much effort. Comment oyster and I'll send it to you right away! Who do you want to go oyster gathering with soon? ✖️✖️✖️ 🖊️ @anne_de_buck
𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲'𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗽𝗼𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 These are those few magical weeks each year when the city suddenly feels different. Everything is in bloom and all you want to do is be outside. Coffee to-go in hand, and just head out as soon as the sun shows up. 📍 Bloesempark – Amsterdamse Bos (the classic, yes it gets busy, but totally worth it) 📍 Rijksmuseum 📍 Fruit Garden of West 📍 Westerpark 📍 Jozef Israëlskade 📍 WG site 📍 Nelson Mandelapark 📍 Bos en Lommerplantsoen 📍Amstelpark By mid-April most of the sakura will already be gone, so if you want to catch it: this is your moment. I'll definitely be doing a few more rounds before it's over. ✖️✖️✖️ 🖊️ @anne_de_buck _______________________________________________ 🌸 Discover the best places to spot cherry blossom in Amsterdam and enjoy the sakura in full bloom. 🌸

5 tips you don't want to miss during your holiday in Ibiza

Enjoy the sunset: Speaking of sunsets… Two spots on the island are my favorites for watching the sunset. At Cala D'Hort, you have a stunning view of the islet of Es Vedra! Get there early to snag a spot on one of the concrete platforms just above the beach and perhaps enjoy a picnic. Another beautiful spot is the small beach called Benirrás, in the north of the island. Traditionally a hippie beach, where the Sunday sunset is famous and locals play music as the sun sets.

Visit the hippie market: If you're an Ibiza fan, you're probably familiar with the Las Dalias hippie market. But for the past few years, there's been a much smaller (and still fairly authentic) hippie market in the village of Sant Joan. On Sunday mornings, the village square transforms into an open-air market, giving you that real Ibiza feeling!

A different bay every day: Ibiza has no shortage of beautiful beaches. Rent a car and check them all off during your vacation! Put these beaches on your bucket list: Aigua Blanques, Cala Conta, Cala Benirrás, and Cala d'Hort.

Restaurant tips: Reservations aren't accepted, there's no menu, and you'll be seated on plastic garden chairs. Fish Shack is a simple fish restaurant near Talamanca Beach, east of Ibiza Town (Cap Martinet), where you can enjoy the catch of the day with a sea view. Although the menu changes daily, I usually go for the fresh sardines, sea bass, and prawns, which are deliciously grilled. Other favorites: La Paloma  Los Enamorados, Es Torrent, Ses Escoles en Nagai.

Take a boat to Formentera: Of course, Formentera is no longer undiscovered, but if you go, you'll notice that the vibe is completely different from Ibiza itself. I always find the boat trip to this island, which is about a 40-minute boat ride from Ibiza, a treat in itself. If you're traveling with a group of friends, I recommend renting a boat yourself so you have plenty of time to anchor at the various bays on the island.
