By our fourth day in Merida in Mexico, it felt like we’d pretty much seen most of the major sites to see in Merida (especially on this day and then on this day for the incredible cenotes and Mayan ruins just outside of Merida) but there was one place that we still hadn’t covered yet … Continue Reading
So after our day spent exploring some of the best things to do in Merida in Mexico, our next day was spent exploring the best things to do outside of Merida. A big one for us was visiting the ancient Mayan temple of Uxmal, venturing to some local Haciendas (which are like these really old … Continue Reading
If you want to know the best things to do in Merida in Mexico, this is the post for you because the very next day, i.e. on our second day in Merida (after our first evening at La Negrita) we started the day poring over our plans to visit the city as we had breakfast. … Continue Reading
As beautiful as Mexico can be, one of the biggest concerns before visiting is about ‘general safety’. Understandably so too as there’s also no uniformity on this. Safety tends to be tied to certain specific pockets so you could find one area is quite fine but the surrounding areas aren’t. Anyway, thanks to this, when … Continue Reading
Iceland is a total dream country to visit, especially if you’re keen on the kind of trip that’s a little different from a beach or tropical holiday. That being said, it’s totally huge (much bigger than you might think)! So, I wanted to share our 1-week itinerary to visit Iceland that’ll help you along your … Continue Reading
Colour tends to speak for itself. There’s never a real need to explain the appeal of a colourful travel destination. Photos of the colourful city/town/village in question is enough to beguile travellers the world over! I’ve always been a fan of colours. At home, on my travels… even in my food and looking back at my … Continue Reading
This is a quick one! The afternoon actually started off in Muizenberg… …swiftly followed by a visit to Boulder’s Beach to see the penguins. And although a visit to the Cape Peninsula was ultimately where we were headed to, a little stopover in Simon’s Town is definitely worth it on your drive outside of Cape Town. … Continue Reading
Croatia is an incredible country to explore and easily one stunning European gem. Whether it’s your first, fiftieth or millionth time to visit, I guarantee there’ll be a whole heap of the best places in Croatia you’ve yet to experience. It’s a country that’s got a little bit of everything, from beautiful islands, historic cities … Continue Reading
For me, Norway’s true appeal lies far from the bright lights of its cities, like Oslo (though that’s amazing too). That being said, Bergen is a bit of an exception though with its UNESCO World Heritage Site of Bryggen and this amazing view at Floyen. Seriously, nowhere else in the world looks or feels just like … Continue Reading
Sometimes, when you’re caught up in the hustle and bustle of everyday life in the madness of the city that is London, it’s so easy to forget how beautiful and magnificent it is! Sometimes, it takes having to show visitors around to remind you of that. In truth, most times, I love London (it is … Continue Reading
Portugal is easily one of the most dramatically beautiful countries in Europe yet somewhat one of the most under-rated. Some of the best hikes in Portugal will easily rival any other options in other European countries yet for some reason, they just seem so much less known (or at the very least, less talked about) … Continue Reading
A photo diary from our New Year’s Eve celebrations plus a sneak peak into my new flat! Been meaning to put these up a few days ago but didn’t quite get round to it till now. Better late than never I say! I also promise to do a more detailed post on the new flat! … Continue Reading
Perfect for a stopover or a quick Swiss city break! Zurich is one of the most popular cities to visit in Switzerland (which is probably the most obvious thing I’ve ever said on here but it’s true). If you’re into anything even remotely Swiss (and trust me on this one, even if it’s just the … Continue Reading
A trip to Norway is always one that leaves me excited – sometimes, far too excited to get a proper night’s kip and on our recent return to this amazing country, I managed to get barely any sleep while excitedly planning what we would be getting up to over the next week! Suffice it to … Continue Reading
