Bibury is home to arguably, the prettiest street in all of England – Arlington Row in Bibury, one of the most iconic sights in the Cotswolds and definitely one of my favourites places to visit in the UK. It’s totally kitsch and a gorgeous throwback to the little cottages that are scattered across the countryside … Continue Reading
Castle Combe is one of the most beautiful places you can visit in not near and around the Cotswolds, but in the British countryside, as a whole! It’s such a charming little place and is one of those places most people who visit, pretty much fall in love with straight away! It’s very close to … Continue Reading
Now, the thing about the Cotwolds is that, this absolutely beautiful area in England comprises of so many absolutely beautiful little villages and towns so it’s pretty much “user’s choice” when it comes to deciding where to visit. One place I knew I had to visit in the Cotswolds (especially after this post on the … Continue Reading
After a drive from London to Bath (via Stonehenge and Salisbury), I was pretty ravenous. I didn’t even think to pack snacks in the car (rookie mistake) so there was nothing throughout the journey over to take the edge off the hungry rumbling in my tummy (asides a cheeky pasty at Stonehenge). As soon as … Continue Reading
I said it before and I’ll say it again, our English road trip had been a long time coming! Granted we only had 4 days (3 nights) this time but we managed to squeeze out as much of Southern England as we could within the 4 days! London bade us farewell with the most dramatic … Continue Reading
Europe is fun enough and well known enough to already be on your travel plans (even if you are European). There’s a lot to see and do here and even if you’re the pickiest of travellers, its easy to find a reason to want to visit Europe. It’s also fairly easy to do so as … Continue Reading
Now when you’re in Geiranger, even if you’re not much of hiker (like myself), one thing you have to do is take a trek to a waterfall called Storseterfossen. Why do you have to go to Storseterfossen? Well, its pretty simple really – Storseterfossen is an amazingly powerful waterfall, high up in the mountains that … Continue Reading
After horse riding around the stunning Faroese countryside, we headed back to the hotel to ‘thaw out’. It was sunny but that wind still carried a chill that only excitement seemed to combat (you know, one of those moments where its only once you get off the horse you realise how cold you really are). … Continue Reading
Right down by the harbour, I finally had that Nordic hotdog I’d been craving. (*For some reason, they just seem to taste so much better up here). Watered and fed (actually more like ‘Fanta’d and fed’) we headed down to the pick up our kayaks (and our instructor) and go off exploring Geirangerfjord. Except, due … Continue Reading
Geneva turned out to be quite the most fantastic surprise! Thing is, I’ve always associated Geneva with being a destination where you go to spoil yourself silly. Luxury watches, delicious chocolates and indulgent shopping all spring to mind when I think of Geneva but when we visited this amazing Swiss city for the very first, we ended … Continue Reading
Arriving in Geiranger, one of the very first things I knew I had to do was to head to the spot where I could get that iconic view of the village and its fjord… well that and checking into the hotel (perhaps even for a little snooze?). As it turns out, the spot with the … Continue Reading
Being Germany’s third-largest city and the capital of Bavaria, the city has a lot to offer. Especially considering all the amazing things to do in Munich that seem to be dotted all across the city. Probably one of the most famous aspects of the city is Oktoberfest! An occasion in itself and totally fun. That … Continue Reading
There are so many fantastic and amazing things to see in Porto. I’d even go as far as saying it’s is one under-rated Portuguese gem. Scratch that! This ‘under-ratedness’ (not a real word) is perhaps less and less so. Everyone seems to be pretty clued up more and more these days on how a visit to … Continue Reading
There’s good reason why millions of Europeans (and indeed, travellers from all over the world) flock to the Mediterranean islands, year in year out. These islands at the very bottom of Europe, are some of the most beautiful places to visit in Europe – not to mention how they pretty much guaranteed to have amazing … Continue Reading
