Founded thousands of years ago by Nordic settlers, this destination showcases a breathtaking coastline with scenic peninsulas, straits and picturesque islands. Known for its natural beauty and small-town charm, Reykjavik is also known to attract travellers as 'the nightlife capital of the North' for its vibrant and social atmosphere. The island's landscape seems to be in a constant process of transformation like its society, combining Nordic tradition with sophisticated technology.

Rotterdam

Rotterdam, the second largest city in Netherlands, was destroyed during World War II and it was rebuilt some decades after. Because of the war, classic medieval Dutch architecture was washed away along with the other rubble and debris of war. Despite destruction, as a result of the city's postwar, postmodern philosophy, the city has developed an architectural aesthetic that is unique in Europe.

In fact, Rotterdam is known as a city rich in history and architecture. In the few square kilometers of the city center, you have a comprehensive overview of what the 20th century produced in terms of modern architecture. Thanks to its position, the city has always been a meltingpot of people and it is still known as a multicultarl city.
