Mahon is the capital city of Menorca and it’s one of its prettiest! (Albeit, perhaps even more so in the sunshine). We visited late in the evening when the skies had turned a bit grey (thankfully, we had sunshine in the afternoon for our boat ride) but the greys didn’t take away from the city’s … Continue Reading
Edmonton was absolutely amazing to visit and one of the coldest places we’ve ever been – which, by the way, is exactly what we were looking for. In winter, you want the snow to stick around (actually, in London, we’d probably even settle for just a bit of snowfall, especially around the Christmas time) and … Continue Reading
Yup! We’re up in the Arctic Circle. I am writing this post looking right outside my window at a snow-clad mountain in one of the most beautiful places (and certainly the highest place) we’ve ever visit – Tromso in Norway. Sounds like a bold claim but I’m gonna put the photos down below and you … Continue Reading
After our big lunch down by the seaside, I was in no shape for any exercise whatsoever and so off we went on a more of a laidback jaunt around Menorca – this time on a boat, leaving from the port of Mahon (the capital city of Menorca). Now I realise, reading this title back … Continue Reading
3 years ago, to this day exactly, in my college room back at Cambridge University I found myself with a free day. This almost never happened! See, you know the way you see photos of students at Uni fooling around and kicking it in the pub on a Saturday? That wasn’t our lot on my course. … Continue Reading
Okay, this one is several months late but I guess most of the stuff in it is still relevant (sans perhaps the Christmas market stuff)… 😁 As you already know, we were in Hamburg in December with Eurowings to check out the Christmas markets and it was everything I wanted and more out of German Christmas … Continue Reading
Formerly known as Saigon and Prey Nokor (at different times), Ho Chi Minh City was re-named after the country’s revolutionary leader (and the first leader in North Vietnam) Ho Chi Minh. Nowadays, it’s a totally vibrant place with so many amazing and best things to do in Ho Chi Minh City. Still, to this day, … Continue Reading
Vietnam is an incredible country to explore, with so many beautiful spots, vibrant cities and friendly people all across the country. That being said, with so many of the best places in Vietnam to visit, it can be pretty tough in whittling it down to a few key spots. To be honest, the fact that … Continue Reading
Dubai is a city that almost seems to have risen out of nowhere in a relatively short amount of time and now stands as a popular destination due to its huge mix of malls, architecture, immense skyscrapers and (perhaps lesser focused on) historical sites. There’s honestly a heap of the places to see in Dubai, … Continue Reading
When most people think of visiting Indonesia, they think of visiting the gorgeous places in Bali, to see its incredible temples and stunning waterfalls. That being said, the capital, Jakarta is a great little spot for a few days visit, especially if you’re already in Java. Now, being such a big and populous city, it … Continue Reading
No trip to China is truly complete without visiting Beijing, especially if you’re wanting to explore some of the country’s long history, culture and vibrant street. There are so many incredible and best things to do in Beijing, especially if you want to explore the city and the wider region itself. You see, the history … Continue Reading
After a busy lazy day in the Ciutadella (and have worked up quite the appetite), we headed over to Café Balear by the harbour, where we would be having dinner. Now Café Balear is one of the most popular restaurants in Menorca. Apparently, in the height of summer, it’s near impossible to get a table … Continue Reading
It safe to say that most of us these days have cottoned on to the fact that travel doesn’t need to be expensive. That being said, we all know that expensive or cheap’ is such a relative term. Though, there are some cities to visit in the USA that aren’t quite as expensive as others. … Continue Reading
We arrived into Menorca from London late at night… due to which, I never actually got to see any of the island on the drive to our hotel and so, with very little expectations (or ideas of what to expected) we just went straight for dinner at our hotel (the brilliant Hotel Artiem Audax) and pretty … Continue Reading
