The very next morning, we got up bright and early and set off on a trip to the island of Bryher (which, by the way, is right next to Tresco island). Okay, I’m being liberal with the truth here – I did not get up ‘bright and early’. I’m not a fan of waiting around … Continue Reading
Please stop what you’re doing right now and take a look at this amazing little island. The island is called Tavarua and it is in Fiji. The ‘deserted island’ game is strong with this one. Image via Except of course, it isn’t deserted and you couldn’t spend many an afternoon lazing around on its beautiful sandy beaches … Continue Reading
One of my favourites things about travel photography is perhaps one of the most obvious reasons why people indulge in photography in the first place really – the ability to relive their experiences through the photos. Recently, I’ve been re-obsessed with Bali (as you can probably tell from our Instagram). I say ‘re-obsessed’ but the … Continue Reading
Our trip to the Isles of Scilly was one that has been long-awaited! Earlier this year, I said to Lloyd how much I wanted to see more of the UK and Ireland. Case in point – living in Edinburgh a while back, I had taken it for granted and it was only after a long stint … Continue Reading
The world has no shortage of diverse cultures, individuals and indeed, benchmarks for success. Everyone seems to be constantly chasing one goal or the other regardless of what part of the world they live in yet one of the biggest things that travelling across the world always highlight is how similar we all are. We’re all … Continue Reading
The first I’d heard of Sintra was just before the summer holidays at Cambridge University. This was when a group of us were heading out to Lisbon for a 4-day weekend to celebrate multiple friend’s birthdays and a classmate of mine at Cambridge suggested visiting Sintra, too. initially, I was a bit unsure. After all, … Continue Reading
Singapore has a poor reputation when it comes to beaches. For all the flash and pomp the city-state has, with its towering steel and glass towers, beautiful people and amazing food (to mention but a few), it is notorious for having no ‘really nice’ beaches. There’s perhaps one beach of note in the Sentosa resort … Continue Reading
As you’ve seen in so many posts now, I’m obsessed with Norway’s many fjords. I’ve wanted to see them for ages and they most certainly live up to the hype. They’re absolutely breathtaking and worth travelling across the world to see. That being said, Norway also has an astonishing 1,190 Fjords (saaaaay whaaaaaaaat?) and so … Continue Reading
Fjord Safari Flam is one of the best things to do when visiting this region. And it really was a highlight of our trip to Flam! Norway’s fjords are famous the world over and after a trip up the mountains to see the Sognefjord from the top, we had a trip from the bottom, on the … Continue Reading
I’m a huge fan of anything that can help make travel easier, whether that’s a new and easy way to book tickets or a more efficient method to pack for your travels. Before I get started, I’ve just gotta say this -I’m not always a huge fan of kickstarter projects. While the idea of kickstarter in … Continue Reading
The midnight sun, for the uninitiated, is a phenomenon in which the sun just won’t quit! 🙂 Not the most scientific of definitions but it pretty much sums it all. The midnight sun happens around the middle of summer and the sun just stays out and never sets. Best part about it? You get so … Continue Reading
I recently happened upon a place which looks too good to keep just to myself. I was watching Ex-Machina recently and in a theme that has been consistent this year – i.e. my deep love of Norway and it’s amazing natural treasures, I found myself taken with the hotel/house/building featured in the film. The film … Continue Reading
I slept very well on Saturday night in lovely Bristol. Between the amazing meal from the night before and the brilliant hotel, I pretty much conked out as soon as I hit the hotel room. There’s just something fantastic about getting a good night’s sleep that’s irreplaceable. Sunday morning had arrived and that meant returning … Continue Reading
Burgers well and truly demolished (and satisfyingly so) I figured it was time to pack in as much of the harbour festival as was left of it for the day before heading back to the hotel for a bit of pool time pre-dinner. Everyone was having such a glorious time and I was in high … Continue Reading
