Berlin is one of those European cities that has been defined by war. Everywhere you go, the city’s painful past is evident – from the ruins of one grand structures to the eclectic mix of houses built at different times by different generations, Berlin has truly been shaped by the wars its seen. I remember … Continue Reading
Our arrival in Berlin was very much defined by a ridiculous amount of sleepiness. As it turns out, the adrenaline that keeps you awake till your taxi with your friends arrives at 3am and leaves you guys chatting all the way to the hotel in your destination, is a sneaky little thing! It’ll abandon you … Continue Reading
If pictures are worth a thousand words, how many words are videos worth? In any case, we’ve put together a little video of 17 things to get up in New York City in less than 90 seconds. 🙂
As much as I would love to take credit for deciding that this is indeed one of the most dramatic cities in Europe, other people did this way ahead of me and a trip to this city only further corroborated that designation. Orvieto truly is something else! The city is built on almost vertical cliffs … Continue Reading
This is some of the randomness that ensues when you come across sunflower fields. There is almost no rhyme or reason to this post. 🙂 I’d never really seen sunflowers grown on such a large scale before and we decided to stop to check them out. I think we may have arrived in Italy a … Continue Reading
I’ve wanted to take this trip across Italy for quite a while and one of the grand ideas I had about it before we finally went on the trip was about driving through Tuscany! Those rolling hills went hand it in hand with daydreams of myself eating as much pizza and gelato as I could … 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
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
Personally, I’m more of a summer kinda guy but the best thing to do with any season, regardless of personal preference, is always to make the most of it. This is no more true than during winter. In summer, get outside, have as many alfresco lunches as you dare and spent many lazy weekends napping … Continue Reading
Aacck! Can’t believe I haven’t put there pictures up yet! 🙂 These photos have all been edited on my phone (huge kudos to VSCO – love that app) but I’d been so distracted by the fact that this was our very first trip to Turkey (and perhaps by all the Turkish food) that I hadn’t gotten round … Continue Reading
We’re in Gdansk! 🙂 It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these quick blog updates while we’re still in the same place but I’d been editing these photos on my phone and just had to share these photos of Gdansk. As per usual, we’ll be updating more on Instagram and Facebook. 14 Best Things … Continue Reading
Glasgow is such a spectacular city, being the largest in Scotland and one of the top five largest in the UK. Like its friendly neighbour Edinburgh, Glasgow is steeped in ancient and long-living history that you can immerse yourself within. Take a look at some of my favourite things to do while you visit one … Continue Reading
Montepulciano was one of the best finds on our trip across Italy. It was one of those places we decided to pop into just a few minutes before we set off for the day and it was such a brilliant call. Even before we hit the town itself, it was nigh impossible not to stop … Continue Reading
This one’s been a long time coming. It probably comes as no surprise to you how much we love travel photography. With every trip we take, we alway end up with lots of photos (at this point, you’re probably no stranger to our blog posts with way too many photos in them) however, there’s always that photo … Continue Reading
