The D&O Diary completed its European tour this week with a stop in the Bavarian city of Munich, known to the locals as München. It is always great to visit Munich but it is particularly nice this time of year. It is such a green, outdoor-oriented city and in the summer sunshine the city vibrates with life.

The D&O Diary’s European travels continued with a stop in Riga, Latvia’s capital city and the largest city in the Baltic states. Located on the Daugava River where it meets the Baltic Sea, Riga is a level, walkable city full of interesting architecture and beautiful parks.Continue Reading Riga
The D&O Diary’s European travels continued with a visit over the weekend to Vilnius, Lithuania’s capital city. Vilnius has long history, a prosperous feel, and a very cool vibe.

The D&O Diary continued its European sojourn with a visit last week to the sun-drenched and, even though it was still just April, summerlike, country of Portugal.

Portugal, my friends, is a wonderful place, as I believe the pictures below will show. Continue Reading Portugal
The D&O Diary is on assignment in Europe this week, with the first stop in Frankfurt, the German financial capital. The spring weather in Frankfurt was mild and pleasant while I was there, though I was in Frankfurt all too briefly.
The purpose of my visit to Frankfurt was to participate in the DRRT
The D&O Diary’s European Sojourn finished up last week with a return visit to London. I returned to London in order to attend an event postponed from the week before. Although the postponement required me to extend my travels for a few more days, it did also mean that I got a bonus day in London, as reflected in the pictures below.Continue Reading Back in London
The D&O Diary’s European assignment continued last week with a long weekend stopover in the French capital city of Paris. February is not the month usually associated with the French city’s romantic image, but the weather was not too bad and it turned out to be a fine time for a visit.
