After all the hoops we had to jump to get to Antarctica (in our previous post), here we finally were. Antarctica! Like, this took a little while for it to sink in. I remember wanting to visit for like 10 years and then it took lots of planning to finally get to this point and … Continue Reading
Perched in the north of England, Newcastle is a city that’s well worth a visit, especially for all the history and experiences you can have here. After four visits, I’ve realised that it can actually be hard to whittle down a manageable list of the best things to do in Newcastle, especially if it’s your … Continue Reading
Nestled on the Atlantic Coast of Puerto Rico, San Juan is typically the first port-of-call when you arrive on the island. Being the largest city, it’s got centuries of history, vibrant neighbourhoods and a heap of the best things to do in San Juan dotted all across the city. These all make it a firm-favourite … Continue Reading
When we arrived at Pashupatinath Temple, I don’t think I realised how big it actually was. You arrive at this seemingly unassuming date, walk through a fairly quiet walkway and before you know it, you’re in the heart of one of Nepal’s most sacred sites. Like Boudhanath before, Pashupatinath Temple is also a UNESCO World … Continue Reading
You’ve got 10 hours to see the sights in Bali. Okay, the reason you have 10 hours is that you have the car on hire for 10 hours. Well, 9 hours really but you know how to stretch things and get some extra time… And here’s how you do it! First off visit with the … Continue Reading
When we booked our flights to South Africa, I took it for granted that organising the details of our safari would be the least of my worries.

London has loads to offer, with so many amazing areas to explore. That being said, so much choice can make it tough when figuring out all your plans. This is especially true when it comes to finding bars with the best views in London. Now, although us Londoners don’t have hundreds of skyscrapers, we have … Continue Reading
Ever since we laid out our plans for Vancouver, there was one thing I was really looking forward to – that thing was heading over to Whistler for the day. This was partly because I’d never gotten to visit Whistler before but mostly because the views on the way over were said to be absolutely … Continue Reading

There are literally so many places to see which is why you’re going to have a blast on your Crete Holidays. Over the … Continue Reading
On our final day in St Kitts, we woke up to what was something of a surprise – clouds in the sky! It’d been sunny all week that the idea of rain here almost seemed impossible. 😀 (which is silly of course because rain is why the island is so lush and green). Don’t let … Continue Reading
1.) Take the Thames Clipper (boat) up River Thames This is way cheaper than the river cruises and a great way to see a lot of sights across the Thames in London. Of course, it doesn’t come with a tour guide talking to you about what you’re seeing but that may not be a bad … Continue Reading
One of the biggest sights I’d wanted to see in Bergen was the UNESCO World Heritage site of Bryggen. I’d spoken about it on the blog before and so when we finally booked our flights to Bergen, this was something I’d put at a high priority on my itinerary! First things first though, we checked … Continue Reading
I do love a good getaway… especially to Bristol! In any case, off I’m out and about exploring Bristol in more detail this weekend and so far so good. I swear there’s just something about summertime in the UK generally that makes every city that extra bit special. I’ve been fairly relaxed all evening, chilling … Continue Reading
