Dark tourism, also known as dark tourism or thanato tourism, is a form of tourism that involves visiting historical sites that are related to or associated with death and tragedy. Because I travel to understand the world and history, these are places I have visited regularly. It sounds sinister, dark and strange, and they are places where you get quiet and where you get a knot in your stomach. Yet they are places that I often visit. Is this disrespectful or respectful?

Cycling in Paris is not the first thing you think of when you visit this city. Paris is, however, nicknamed not only the “City of Light”, but also the “City of Cars”. But make no mistake, because it becomes more and more a bicycle city. Many bicycle paths have been constructed in the last years, the so called “pistes cyclables”. This makes cycling in this city more and more easy and safe, despite the heavy traffic. The Dutch love cycling! I find getting to know a city by bike a very nice way of doing so, and that is why I like cycling in Paris!
