We had never been to this region of Italy before, so we quickly decided to throw in an extra day in Naples as a short stop-over. Just enough time to get a glimpse of the city, take a deep breath of the historic district, enjoy some typical Neapolitan food and …

Even though our trip has undergone many, many revisions and the timing of when to be where had military grade accuracy, one date was rock solid. The French Laundry. As soon as we had decided to do it…

Enough is enough! After a week of constant rain we decided to leave and go west. Like… in a few thousand miles west. I’d love to claim to have this level of spunk, but the trip was planed well ahead…

A little annoyed by the constant rain, we headed back to the hotel and shortly after found ourselves in front of a PC screen checking our emails and could not believe what we were looking at – I wildly gestured Oliver to come over and tell me I’m not starting to see things… we’ve been selected by TIME.com as one of the 50 Coolest Websites (2006).

Being on your way to Hangar-7 can mean one of three things: either you’re into air planes, love art or are a foodie par excellance. In any event, you’re up for something memorable!
