The 5 Best Creative Tapas Places of Madrid

Madrid as the capital of Spain, the country that brought us tapas, has of course it fair share of fantastic tapas places to offer. In an earlier post I’ve listed some of my favorite places to enjoy some classic tapas in the city. However, even though I love the classics, after a while I started looking for something more. There is only so much tortilla, jamon and pulpo you can eat and sooner or later you crave something different. I was rather successful in this quest and I want to share my results with you. This post will list the best places I’ve found where you can enjoy creative tapas with a twist. Sometimes surprising variations on the classics but sometimes also completely new. Check it out!

Armenia: The Ararat volcano towering above Yerevan and the Armenian Highlands Adventures

Armenia: Art and Architecture in Yerevan

  • by tvatravel

I could see the whole city spread out in front of me. Beyond the buildings began the long and empty Armenian highlands. But dominating the view and towering above everything was the Ararat Mountain.

I do not only travel in my free time and vacations, but I also need to take regular trips for my job. My team works for the EMEA region, which stands for Europe Middle East and Africa. In the past 2 years and a half I’ve been to some destination that I honestly never thought I would go to anytime soon. One of those destinations was Yerevan in Armenia. To be completely honest, when my boss told me about the project, I quickly googled where exactly the country was. I also never heard (or remembered) about the capital: Yerevan. So I had no clue what to expect when I got the chance to wander around the city for 2 nights. In this post you will find out why I was very pleasantly surprised!
