After leaving the Interpretation Centre in Antigua (see the first part of this post to find out more about what it is and why it’s important), we headed for Shirley Heights. Shirley Heights is famed in Antigua for it’s sunday parties and beautiful sunsets (seriously, you can even see the island of Montserrat from up here) and so … Continue Reading

It’d been over 10 years since I last visited Dublin when we got an invite to head over to Ireland for a couple of days to celebrate the 15th birthday of the Guinness Storehouse.  Guinness itself is much older but the storehouse only started about 20-years ago as a chance to give visitors to the … Continue Reading

As nice as a resort might be, after chilling out for the first couple of days, I was itching to head out and see more of Antigua.  TIP: When you’re in Antigua, instead of taking taxis everywhere you should rent a car and even if you don’t drive, get a driver with a rented car … 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

London is home and has been for quite some time now and so it’s safe to say that from time to time, as amazing as the city is, we sometimes take it for granted. The only time I actually seem to make an effort to see the city is when I have guests visiting, in which case, … Continue Reading

We were intentionally left in the dark about a lot of the stuff we did in Valencia (it was definitely an amazing surprise itinerary) and so, we had no idea until we returned from watching the tango, to take us on a hot air balloon ride the very next morning! I can’t even begin to describe to … Continue Reading

Wandering around Gdansk is understandably distracting (Reason 1 and Reason 2 are right here) and although we’d spotted where we were eventually going to have lunch hours before lunch, it wasn’t until I realised how much I needed to pee that I realised how hungry I was. 😂 I hurriedly dragged my motley crew of … Continue Reading

Hello from Sri Lanka! SO as you already know after our time in the Maldives, we headed straight for Sri Lanka (which is only 1.5 hours away) and this time we’ve gotten to experience a totally different way of travelling with Evaneos Travel. The thing about Sri Lanka is that although there are 4 of … Continue Reading

If you’ve been on our Instagram, Facebook or Twitter, you’ll probably have been inundated with so many photos from the Maldives… If you haven’t well this post is for you – we’re in the Maldives as it’s as beautiful as they all said it would be! (Oh, and we’re also on Snapchat with username “HandLuggageOnly”) … Continue Reading

A trip to Antigua would be incomplete without a little visit to St John’s – the capital of the island. I visited outside of the main hours most visitors on the island tend to visit – unintentionally I might add, I just happened to have rented a car and subsequently decided to make the most … Continue Reading

As per our last post here (and if you’ve been on our Instagram or Twitter) lately, you’ll probably have seen that we’re in Madrid. This trip to Madrid has been a lot busier than initially thought. I had this silly idea in my head that a trip to Madrid in winter would be a lot … Continue Reading

Up until a “penny drop moment” last year, we’d been so obsessed with the idea of trying to see as much of the world as possible (outside of the UK)  that we’d completely overlooked what was in our own “back garden”. The UK is a treasure trove of amazing sights to see, things to do and … Continue Reading

I’m going to try to keep this one short and to the point! See, there are so many opinions out there about what a ‘good’ souvenir is – along with other about what a ‘bad’ souvenir is, what to get, what to avoid that I just couldn’t help but weigh in on the important things to … 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
