Planning your trip and trying to figure out the best things to do in Hague? Here’s a round up of everything I do in my favorite city! From leaving behind Berlin, to making Hague my full-time home, I have made countless cherished memories in this city of peace. Hague has so many things to offer, from a palace where global leaders make international treaties, to streets that feel like they haven't changed in years, to the most popular beach in Netherlands, it's a lot for one ci

I had this place bookmarked for a long time after I arrived in Hague. I knew it was an antique market, and having lived in Berlin before, I am a huge fan of such markets. I love to stroll through the space with ample time on my hands, and no worry in my mind. My only goal is to admire the many beautiful pieces and art that the sellers are showcasing, and if I do find something unique, I end up buying it. I bought a beautiful ring for myself which I still wear to this date, it

Ever since moving to The Hague, I have seen shopfronts and cafes so pretty that I have instantly bookmarked them on Google Maps. Having been living here for the last 6 months, these are my list of the best Hague places to visit to eat delicious food. Since I have made Hague my home, I will keep on adding more to this list. So lets dive right in, Cafes 1. The Bookstor Cafe Noordeinde 39 This is a bookshop and a cafe in one, and it's been around for over a hundred years. Floor-

When we first moved to The Hague, I didn't really know what to expect. It was just another Dutch city to me. Not Amsterdam, not Rotterdam, just somewhere I'd vaguely heard of. I knew it had a beach, and that was about it. But then we started actually exploring, and I don't know how else to say this, it just kept getting better. The art museums are genuinely world class. The Indonesian food is unreal (this city has the biggest Indonesian food scene outside of actual Indonesia)

I used to live in Berlin, Germany, for three years before shifting permanently to The Hague. Back in Berlin, my friends and I had this ritual of seeking out the best brunch and coffee spots in the city whenever Saturday arrived. When I came to The Hague, I found myself in search of the same. And that search led me to discover some unique cafés. The Hague doesn't get talked about enough when it comes to cafes. Amsterdam gets all the attention, but some of the most interesting

Everyone knows there’s a Dutch island north of Amsterdam, but somehow we’ve all collectively been putting it off, waiting for the perfect day to visit. For us, that perfect day came after lunch on a random weekend, sitting at home wondering what spontaneous day trip we could take. And then the light bulb went on: why not Texel? It was long overdue. Now that we’ve finally been to this pretty little island, I want to share what I enjoyed most, along with some of the best spots

Delft is one of those places that looks like someone invented it for a postcard. Canals lined with crooked bikes, church spires poking through the rooftops, and that particular shade of blue-and-white pottery in every shop window. But here's the thing most travel guides won't tell you: you can see all of it in a single, well-planned day! I live in The Hague, so Delft is technically my neighbour. But I still treat it like a proper day trip every time I go, because it is truly

28.07.2026 We had been discussing for quite some time the day before about where to celebrate our "first meet" anniversary. Finally, my husband suggested visiting a castle and its gardens. However, having seen plenty of castles in Europe, I wasn't entirely convinced. Instead, I had envisioned a charming farm with sheep on a faraway island. When the day arrived, we wrapped up lunch and realized it was already too late to make it to the island. So a split-second decision later,

27.06.2026 Some weekends don't need much planning. All they need is the feeling that your home could use a little more green. That was exactly how this day started. I decided I wanted a few new plants, and once that thought settled in, there was no ignoring it. So we made our way to Ockenburg Garden Centre in The Hague, hoping to find a few new additions for our home. Walking through a garden centre is always relaxing. Every corner is filled with lush greenery, colourful summ

21.06.2026 Amsterdam has a way of changing the moment you stop following the obvious route. One minute you are moving with the crowd outside Amsterdam Centraal, surrounded by bikes, trams, suitcase wheels, and people trying to work out which platform they need. A few minutes later, you can be standing by the water, watching ships slide past like the city has quietly opened a second front door. That was the version of Amsterdam I saw when I went to meet a friend who was passin

18.04.2026 Netherlands has always held a special charm, one filled with the allure of green pastures dotted with sheep and goat, and when the right season arrives, endless fields of tulips fluttering beneath the sun, waiting quietly to be harvested And so, one fine day, when some guests were in town and tulip season was in full bloom, we decided to take out our car and go on an expedition to see these much-admired blooms. Just two weeks previously, we had gone on a similar ex

12.04.2026 After a quick breakfast of Kerala "Puttu" paired with white chickpeas, made with coconut and aromatic spices, ground in a mixer that once travelled from India, we set off to visit our neighboring town - Delft. Delft was peaceful. In some alleys so quiet, I wondered how life unfolds here without the familiar humdrum of daily human activity, so central to our existence as social beings. Yet it was beautiful. The day was as sunny as far as tourists' wishes go. We vi
