On our way to Lisbon, Leon and I spent two days in Madrid. The Spanish capital is located 667m above sea level in the highlands of Castile. It is therefore the highest capital...

The flight was very relaxed. Business class was just the first 4 rows of the plane, but with 3 seats on either side, the middle seat was always free, so it was very comfortable....

Saturday 09/16/23 The big day: I got up early, had breakfast, finished packing and then headed to the airport. As a first-time flyer, I was of course completely overwhelmed at...
