In 2013 I moved from the Netherlands to London and started my travel blog Urban Pixxels. There's nothing I love more than traveling to new destinations around the world with my camera and sharing my experiences and tips with you.
I still feel more comfortable behind the camera than in front, but I'm doing my best to create more vlogs. So stay tuned and come and join me!

MOUNT BROMO TOUR | Climbing an Active Volcano in Indonesia
zhlédnutí 1,4KPřed 5 lety
When Lonely Planet chooses a photo of Mount Bromo as the cover for their Indonesia guide, you want to make sure you’ve seen it before leaving the country. I went on a 1 day tour from Malang to see the sunrise over Mount Bromo, followed by a hike to the crater. This is one Indonesia's most active volcanos: amazing! In this video I'll take you with me on this Mount Bromo tour, from waiting for th...

Travel with me on this incredible 28 hour overnight train ride from Johannesburg to Cape Town with the Premier Class train.

SMART LUGGAGE BATTLE: Away vs Horizn Studios

When it comes to smart luggage there are two brands that everyone is talking about: Away and Horizn Studios. Would it surprise you if I say I have both? I won’t go into detail here how I got there, but I’m explaining it all in the video. So let’s forget for a moment that I may have a bit of a luggage addiction. And let’s use my experience with both Away and Horizn Studios (the carry-on as well ...

Franz Josef Glacier Helicopter Hike: Icy Adventure in New Zealand
zhlédnutí 882Před 6 lety
The best way to see the Franz Josef Glacier in New Zealand is unfortunately not the cheapest one: a glacier hiking tour with a short helicopter ride to take you to the glacier. But it's so worth it! This is really one of the best things to do on the South Island. After a bit of research online I sign up for a tour with Franz Josef Glacier Guides. Their guides are amazing and they provide you wi...
KOYASAN | Unique Stay at a Japanese Buddhist Temple
zhlédnutí 24KPřed 7 lety
From Osaka I travelled to Mount Koya, also known as Koyasan for an overnight stay at Ekoin, a 1200 year old Buddhist temple. I'm staying at a shukubo, a pelgrim lodging at a buddhist temple. It's such a unique experience. From the Buddhist vegetarian meal (shojin-ryori) and hot spring baths to the night tour at the Okunoin Cemetery and morning fire ritual. It's a side of Japan I haven’t experie...
GREAT OCEAN ROAD in 1 day from Melbourne
zhlédnutí 5KPřed 7 lety
Can you do the Great Ocean Road in one day from Melbourne? Most travel guides will tell you you need to take at least three days, rent a car and take your time to explore all the sights and villages along the way. Unfortunately that wasn't an option for me and so I joined a tour to do the Great Ocean Road in one day from Melbourne. And it was great! Yes, it's a long day and you won't be able to...
Ryokan Hiiragiya in Kyoto: The Ultimate Japanese Experience
zhlédnutí 77KPřed 7 lety
Don’t think that a ryokan is just a hotel that looks Japanese. It’s an unforgettable experience that you can only get in Japan. Which is why it was on top of my list when I started planning this trip. The Hiiragiya ryokan in Kyoto has been in the same family for 200 years and is one of the most popular places in Japan for visitors and celebrities (Charlie Chaplin, Elizabeth Taylor) that want to...

If you think Tokyo is just another big city, comparable to New York and London, then you're up for a big surprise. This city is different! It's organized, clean, calm and crazy at the same time. As much as you see and hear about Tokyo, you have to see it to believe it. And with a massive jet lag there's no better place to keep you awake and excited to start your time in Japan.

Madidi National Park | Amazon Jungle Tour in Bolivia

One of the best experiences in Bolivia is an Amazon jungle tour in Madidi National Park. There are not many places on earth where you’ll find such a large number and diversity of animals and plants. With eco-tourism you support the local communities and your visit only has a limited impact on the rainforest. Which is why we stayed at the Madidi Jungle Ecolodge, a fantastic experience.

La Corrèze & Dordogne Valley | Urban Pixxels
Did this journey eleven times in 2016, always sad when the journey ended. The food was freshly prepared, not frozen stuff heated up. The staff attitude was exemplary, the service shined. And it is very, very safe. The scenery is great and we saw giraffe, hartebeest, kudu, springbok, gnu, zebra, ostrich,rheebok, steenbok.......eagles, the rare riverine rabbit ...really special. And a majestic sable antelope just as we exited Hexton long tunnel on the Karoo side, standing on top of a ridge, etched against the blue sky. If this journey bores you, put down your phone and look outside. Africa is out there, to feast your eyes upon. Never a dull moment. 😊
Nicely made.
So what does it cost and how long does it take??? Please.
this train is no longer in operation

I really had no idea. Shall be going to Parkstation to have a ride in gautrain but had no idea about this. December, for sure. Vetri EC Komani. 🙏🇿🇦🙏
So you very hot mam
I have been in shosholoza meyl train, I like that, it was never bored, so cozy, comfortable, fun! I did eat restaurant, drank a beer, bought chocolate, I had a wonderful sleep, in the morning while I get up, I have cheap coffee. I will go to Cape Town by shosholoza meyl train in March.
PRASA recent announcement brought me here 😅
Didn't know the rail system still works in this country 😢 shame
Is that the blue or shosholoza trains
how much?
hi how muchwas the ticket ?
It is not a luxury train but a nice comfortable train
WHAT is luxury about this train?------it looks awful!
Thanks for video keep going 🤠 greeting from Morocco
Wow...what a GREAT trip...thx for sharing
This is one of my favourite videos! I can't how many times I revisit your channel just to watch this! Thank you once again! Thank you for sharing this with the world 🙏🏿❤️
oh is that Tonjo? 😍 we saw him at the lodge when he was a baby 😊
I did this trip in 2010. Was fantastic.
Is it still functional
Really weak video content. No mention of costs, the different compartments available ( they're not CABINS by the way). For a 26 train trip, there was no mention of the different beautiful South African landscapes or the four provinces it crossed, being different geographically. Were there any stops ? Explanation of Meals- No description at all. What did the compartments consistent of? Is there WiFi? Are there showers ? So much to mention about your little information of this trip. Keep your day job being a travel expert is not for you.
Ticket prices
where are you from?
Sehr schön,muß ich auch hin
Magical place..I'm so excited to visit there next week😊
I'm staying Hiiragiya today and watching your video.😄
I liked to go but my husbund is not to do that sort now you know why nothing happens ???????no go lonely traveler
The vegetarian food of the shukubo on Koyasan was very delicious!!
You re amazing too girl! Stay cool and beautiful 😘
TOURISM AND GREAT PROJECTS ARE DESTROYING NOTHING LEFT WITHOUT SORROW FROM GREECE
Oh, what a lovely ride and exquisite video. Thank you.
Great video!
Looks beautiful but terrifying. Can't imagine what the insects look like. Why is the video so short??
Wir würden da auch gerne hin, ...Du schreibst aber nicht, wo die Stadt ist, wo Du gestartet bist...Schade!
Er startete in La Paz, gemäß der im Video gezeigten Karte.
I wish my hubby and I had been on the train
Really beautiful
Здравия всем и мира! Мы собираем команду из пяти семей (человек) для покупки около 30 га земли в джунглях и переезде в Боливию. Создаём эко поселение. Соседи - христианское поселение русских и украинцев, белорусов. Они же и продают часть из своих 200 га. Рядом, в киллометре, проходит граница самого огромного и красивого заповедника. Мы ждём в команду людей, ведущих здоровый образ жизни. Тех, кто увлекается йогой, славянством, индуизмом, эзотерикой. Людей, осознанных, стремящихся к самопознанию. Стартуем через 1,5-2 года.

Hey there, I'm travelling to South Africa in November. How safe is Joburg Park Station? Did you take a taxi to the station? Did you feel unsafe boarding or waiting for your train at the station? Thank you!
How was Joburg?
Very beautiful video. Thank you very much!
Took it twice from JHB to CPT, great experience... Prasa must just fix itself and be more functional once more
How much was it?
How was the food?
This a experience of life time....beware everything comes at a price
The railway infrastructure was looted like crazy so probably a trip like this is impossible
Damn, really?
How much is the ticket?
Any short journey there from Johannesburg to cape town ?and how much cost and how can we book the tickets
