In Bali, Indonesia… There she stood. Waiting… Wondering… Perhaps slightly bored and lost in a day dream… There they came. Sweaty. Stereotypical.

They appear to reject every offer as they meandered through the maze of vendors…. until they noticed her place. … Continue Reading
Travelling is a truly great way to not only have fun, eat decadent (or really strange) food and see amazing sights but also a great opportunity to learn a lot. I know, I know… this sounds so cliche but it’s actually really true. A lot of the things you’ll have learned won’t be instant ‘lightbulb … Continue Reading

Here’s a quick list to help you make the most of your trip to Lisbon. 1.) Jerónimos Monastery: This is … Continue Reading
Castelo de São Jorge is probably one of the very first places you can see in the distance as soon as you arrive in Lisbon. Seeing this castle does leave you with a mix of emotions though as you want to go and explore this castle straight away. However, it also appears (and indeed it … Continue Reading
** Competitions now closed** I’m a sucker for freebies! I love exploring new places but love doing this, even more, when you get it for free (or at a fraction of the price). If you’re reading this now, its probably a safe bet that you also love exploring new places too and will do so … Continue Reading
When my friends suggested booking a trip to Thailand, I immediately jumped on board – Thailand is a one country that possesses some of the most magnificent sights in the world and a travel destination that beckons to millions of people each year and rightly so. You may have noticed a lack of blog posts these … Continue Reading
My friend recently uploaded a new Facebook photo. It was effectively a photo nice photo on the beach and she was meant to be on it but all you could see was about 1 third of her. Considering that her arms were open wide, all you could see was an arm, a leg, part of … Continue Reading
Do not leave home without downloading this on your phone, and they’re all free! I’m something of an apps hoarder, I have almost 5 pages of app folder; not just pages of apps, apps within app folders and as you can imagine my apps count (as in the ones actually installed on my phone) is … Continue Reading
I absolutely love the UK so I may be a little bit biased but I genuinely feel like it has some of the nicest places to spend a summer (or winter) holiday. Unfortunately, a lot of places in the UK which offer a greatly different range of experiences and sights get easily over-looked for places … Continue Reading
You arrive in the hotel after an early morning flight – what the first thing you do? Get some sustenance! Upon arrival in Porto, this is exactly what we did – got my priorities straight you see. Hehehe! After wandering around for a bit, we finally found this restaurant on the waterfront and figured it was … Continue Reading
This is important stuff so pay attention people. 🙂 It’s safe to say that I’m obviously not the first person to have been on a hammock and being on holiday in Spain – especially after a rather nice lunch and quite a lot of Sangria, I figured I’d retire to the comfort of the hammock under … Continue Reading
I’m a sucker for converted open spaces – I’ve said time and time how much I love the juxtaposition of the old and new in these living spaces (yes, these are not just ‘apartments’ to me, they’re so much more than that) and judging from your comments on here, Instagram, Twitter and Facebook, you’re fans of … Continue Reading
It’s that time of the year again! The summer party holiday season is here (or around the corner for some). Holiday-time with friends and the general opportunity to let your hair down and de-stress coupled with the promise of having a crazy (in a good way) time with your friends is definitely one of the … Continue Reading
My friend had been saying for months (almost a whole year actually) that she wanted to celebrate her birthday somewhere outside of the UK and as amazing as the idea was, the process of organising flights and accommodation for even 4 people is daunting to me at the best of times let alone organising for a … Continue Reading
