Exciting news!!! We’re off to explore Italy for a week with nothing but a backpack and a rickshaw! 🙂 It’s very unlike anything else we’ve done before and we’re very excited about it! Bravofly (which is part of the Lastminute.com group) set us a challenge to see how much of Italy we could cover – … Continue Reading
I’ll get straight to the point – I plan on putting together a proper video on our You Tube channel following our trip across Italy but I got a bit carried away when looking through the video and had to put up this little 45 second teaser. Excited to share it all with you but till … Continue Reading
Another day, another rickshaw adventure! This time though, the sun came out to play… and even better still, we stumbled upon an amazing surprise in the Italian countryside – in huge part thanks to us taking a wrong turn and ending up in a town we had no plans to visit. (That’s definitely one of … Continue Reading
New Year, new rickshaw adventures! 😁 This video is some serious farm-to-table video. We’ve literally done, filmed and edited everything in this video within the last 24 hours. Who knows, I may yet master the art of this whole daily vlogging thing. As you probably already guessed from the title, we have indeed returned to … Continue Reading
As I type this, I am quite literally knackered and just about ready to fall asleep but I had to update you quickly with some photos on what we’ve been up to so far on our road trip across Italy. Needless to say, the proper blog posts will come soon but I’m guessing you’re as … Continue Reading
My love affair with Italy is long-standing and so very strong – it’s like every trip back there keeps drawing me even more. As you already know, after our first time driving from Milan to the Amalfi coast in a rickshaw, I’ve long since been a fan of slow travel in Italy. The thing about … Continue Reading
We arrived late in the evening in Milan for our trip across Italy. Thankfully, we didn’t have much planned for the first evening asides meeting the organisers of the rickshaw tour and other participants over drinks and nibbles so the evening went by in a rather relaxed fashion… (prosecco will do that to you). The … Continue Reading
I’ve done so many blog posts on this but I’ve finally gotten round to editing the video from our trip! 🙂 When we were in Italy I ended up going way overboard with the videos and photos I was taking and it was only when I got home and had to sift through hours of … Continue Reading
We were justifiably excited about our weekend trip to New York. After all, we were going to be off exploring the buzzing and unbelievably vibrant and best areas of New York. The city that never sleeps, the big smoke, the Big Apple. 🍎 After our (almost 1k km) rickshaw across Italy, we had precisely seven … Continue Reading
We arrived in Florence ridiculously late. We’d been so distracted by San Miniato (and that sunset) and ended up spending a few hours winding through the Tuscan mountains in the dark until we got to our hotel for the night. It was pretty cold up in the mountains and suddenly, the t-shirt and shorts combo … Continue Reading
After all, the world is your oyster and there are adventures just waiting to be had out there! Let’s get started! 1.) Go on Safari in Kruger National Park I can’t recommend this enough – even if you’re not the nature buff, the idea of being stood (albeit in a jeep) right next to a lion/cheetah/giraffe/elephant … Continue Reading
Yeah, I can’t tell you how many times I had to try to be able to remember that full name of that village – and that’s after I actually got round to pronouncing the whole thing in one go. It’s such a mouthful! We saw Civitella in Val di Chiana from a distance away (remember … Continue Reading
Summertime is holiday time. Countries literally seem to shut down for weeks at a time while everyone heads off for holiday (here’s looking at your France and Italy) and so it comes as no surprise that this is one of the best times to plan that amazing trip you’ve been dreaming about doing in Europe. … Continue Reading
This post is promoted by The Sun and we’re all up for it! We’re always on the lookout for accessible ways to travel after all! To be fair though, the idea is not just limited to the UK, you can do it across Europe if you wanna go further afield. I just have lots more … Continue Reading
