The return from Gugh and St Agnes, led straight to the garden for an afternoon nap (all that fresh air will do that to you), followed by dinner at the Ruin Beach cafe. Ruin Beach cafe is exactly as it sounds, a restaurant set amidst the ruins on the beach. It has one the nicest views … Continue Reading

There are so many incredibly beautiful places in Ireland to explore! It’s a country steeped in history (and gallons of Guinness) that is a must-experience when exploring. From the stunning hikes, the ancient east coast to the iconic castles that reside over the rolling hills, Ireland has it all. Plus, there’s a shed load of … Continue Reading

Portrait photography is definitely one of the most popular forms of photography out there. Let’s face it, long before other types of photography(e.g. the more common landscape photography to more random ones like abstract photography) became popular, portrait photography was one of the earliest forms of photography and one of the ways early photographers made money. … Continue Reading

Remember how I said on St Agnes Island, there’s a second island attached to it via a beach (which is actually officially called a ‘Tombolo’). Well, that island is called Gugh and so after lunch at the Turk’s head, we made our way straight for Gugh… but instead got distracted by the beach and decided to … Continue Reading

After a rather cloudy but ridiculously beautiful day in Tresco, the sun upped its game the next day and we headed off to go explore another island we’d wanted to for a while – St Agnes! This meant sailing past an old favourite – Bryher… …with Lloyd pretending (to himself mostly) that he was the … Continue Reading

One the final morning of my week-long trip to Croatia, I awoke to the most amazing view ever from my hotel room balcony at Villa Dvor. I’d arrived late the night before, slightly sozzled with that good Croatia wine from dinner and so hadn’t really paid attention to my surroundings before promptly falling asleep! The … Continue Reading

Before I even get started, I’d just like to say – Croatia is one of the most beautiful countries we’ve had the pleasure of visiting this year. Morning drives (which usually means a quick nap for me – I’m a sucker for naps when someone else is driving) were so different here as your eyes … Continue Reading

I found out about this place a couple of weeks ago and I can’t seem to get it out of my head! Rightfully so as it’s a rather interesting concept and nice spin on an old favourite. What is it? Hotel Gotham in Manchester. It is exactly what it sounds like. A hotel themed on the … Continue Reading

Rome, Milan Florence and Venice all have their charm when exploring Italy. In truth, they attract visitors the world over every year to come in droves to see them and marvel at their sights (and that’s great). Though, some of the most beautiful villages in Italy to visit also end up being some of the … Continue Reading

This is one of those posts that took on a life of its own. It was just one of those days when you find yourself wandering around London with absolutely no plans whatsoever. The sun was shining (which, no matter how sunny it gets all summer, is still a big deal) and so I decided … Continue Reading

One of the best ways to get better at any skill you’re passionate about learning is to constantly immerse yourself with various sources of inspiration. If you’re an aspiring singer, listen to great singers and immerse yourself in great music, likewise if you’re an aspiring writer, dancer, athlete or whatever else your passion is – find ways to … Continue Reading

There’s definitely something about in the air when you’re by the seaside that leaves you absolutely knackered by the end of the day. It may also be in part due to the fact that everything is so picturesque (and the weather is so amazing) that you end up spending every minute exploring the length and … Continue Reading

As you may have noticed on our instagram lately, I have been experimenting with a lot of different styles of photography – particularly so with regards to the editing of the photos. In the past, I’ve had a clear idea how exactly I would like to have my photos look but lately, I’ve decided to … Continue Reading

Seeing as we’d both skipped breakfast earlier in the day, due to a ridiculous lack of planning on both our parts, lunch time at the Fraggle Rock bar was most certainly a much anticipated affair! It took me all of two seconds to decide what to have – fish and chips all round and a … Continue Reading
