Cinque Terre is one of those icon places in Italy that had been on my travel list for many many years (thank you, Pinterest). I probably recognised the pictures of the gorgeous Italian towns before I actually even knew their names. Determined to visit, we hurriedly booked flights over to Pisa and drove over to … Continue Reading
London Town is one of the best cities in the world…and yes, I am slightly biased. One of the best things I like about London is its diversity and the number of opportunities there are to travel and try new things! and it really makes it easier for me to dash around our amazing city … Continue Reading
And yes, the UK does count as part of Europe even though it appears most people never really seem to think of the UK as Europe. It always seems like it has a separate identity because it’s an island but I digress. Living in Europe definitely has it’s advantages as a lot of Europeans … Continue Reading
If you have been following our Instagram updates from the last week, you would have noticed that we had a marvellous opportunity to visit Bergen, Norway, which was a dream come true! Bergen has been on our lists of city-lust list for quite some time…. And it is with no surprise that I was happy … Continue Reading
Sometimes, I think half the fun of living in London is getting to take part in events like this! 🙂 The other day, we got invited by Pinterest to meet the fantastic James Wong (off the telly 🙂 ) for an evening making and (arguably more importantly) drinking cocktails! And boy was it fun! First … Continue Reading
Its been a busy few days! Quad biking, island hopping, quite a lot of eating and *cough* wine tasting (i.e. getting drunk while soaking up the amazing Croatian sunshine surrounded by amazing views). Okay, now I know this post is coming a bit late but to be fair, my laptop has spent quite a bit … Continue Reading
Having lived in Edinburgh for quite a few years, it’s easily one of my favourite cities in the UK and with good reason too – it’s absolutely pretty, has such a strong history, amazing traditions, really friendly people and is a traveller’s delight – which is also why it makes sense that it the most … Continue Reading
This probably needs no introduction and is pretty much a staple of any trip to Iceland! We planned this for the tail end of our trip as it’s pretty close to the airport and it’s a nice way to relax after an activity-filled trip to Iceland. Here’s what we got up to when we visited … Continue Reading
The night after we saw the Northern Lights at Hotel Laki (which is an amazing place to stay and ideal to see the Northern Lights), we woke up bright and early for breakfast after which we promptly fell asleep again till lunchtime. In our defence, we’d been up till 6 am watching the Northern Lights … Continue Reading
Yup! We’re in Norway now for our trip to Bergen and to the Fjords! The Fjords of Norway and indeed Bergen are places we’ve wanted to visit for a while so we’re understandably excited about it. As per usual, we’ll be posting (A LOT) on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter so do join in the fun on there … Continue Reading
Sardinia is one of the most stunning and diverse places in Italy to visit. Nestled in the Mediterranean, to the west of the mainland, it’s a relatively big island (as European islands go) and there are so many of the best things to do in Sardina dotted all across its coast and inland valleys. Obviously, … Continue Reading
Big cities are almost always best viewed from a high, vantage viewing point offering panoramic views of the city and London is no exception when it comes to that. This is particularly so as summer approaches and the number of daylight hours increases. The best times to get a good photograph, of course, is just … Continue Reading
These are random thoughts that either crossed my mind (which I knew I had to share with you) plus one that really struck a chord with me. Hope in some little way, this adds a little something to your day… 1.) Don’t always accept what people say as being correct all the time, even when … Continue Reading
A trip to Iceland is amazing in itself but seeing the Northern Lights is truly the perfect cherry on that cake! But more on that later on in this post… Now, long before arriving in Iceland, I was already looking forward to visiting Hotel Laki. This was for several reasons (including the promise of seeing … Continue Reading
