I have no idea how I ended up living in Edinburgh. I never had any real ambitions to move to Scotland or to live in Edinburgh but ambitions or not, I ended up calling Edinburgh home for about 4 years. To be honest, I absolutely LOVED living in Edinburgh, the quality of life here is … Continue Reading

Just a very quick post to give you all a little insight for all you people visiting London this Winter. If you have a free hour or two I would definitely recommend a visit to the Tate Modern, A spectacular arrangement of art, installations and of-course the culture. The Tate in itself is FREE to … Continue Reading

If you’re into Planet Earth (like we VERY MUCH are), then no doubt going on safari will be right up there at the top of your travel list. We’d wanted to do this for so long and eventually, on a Friday evening with wine and friends, while actually planning a vacation to Peru, we took … Continue Reading

The Sunshine Coast is one of those places in Canada I’d never really heard about prior to visiting. To be fair, you never really think of Canada and think of sunshine – their winters are so epic that it seems to overshadow summer. ^ Case in point! You’d be wrong for dismissing summers in Canada … Continue Reading

When we visited Copenhagen, two things struck me! Firstly, how friendly Danish people are and, secondly, that you need a guide to visiting Copenhagen. It’s a city that can swallow up your time and it’s so easy to get bamboozled with all the amazing things to do once you’re there.  This is exactly why I … Continue Reading

Ronda is a pretty old Spanish city and I don’t say that lightly either! The city dates back to Neolithic times (approximately 10,000BC) so if ever you were looking for a place to explore Spanish history – this would be a pretty good place to start! Thankfully, after our time in Malaga, we decided to … Continue Reading

We arrived into Newfoundland and Labrador in the middle of the night and suffice to say, did pretty much nothing that night except have dinner and go to sleep. Though, this would mean we’d be raring to go for our 24 Hours visiting St. John’s. I’d wanted to visit Newfoundland and Labrador, more specifically – … Continue Reading

Fresh off the high of that amazing Maldivian sunset (champagne-fuelled) cruise at the amazing Kandolhu island, we headed off for cocktails by moonlight (which somehow seems even more special than cocktails by bar-light 😉 ), before heading out to dinner. I say ‘heading out’, we must have walked all of 10 steps to the Sea … 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

My very first experience in Austria was a ski trip to Zell am See which somehow managed to turn into a full-scale obsession with this amazing country. Photo after photo on Pinterest further fuelled this obsession and just in case you were wondering why you should go to Austria or what you should get up … Continue Reading

Heads up – this is one of those random blog posts! 🙂 Permit me to introduce you to two of my new found obsessions – iPhone Timelapse videos (which I now realised I can upload onto Vine) and hence started doing so properly a little under two weeks ago – starting with this one with … 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

The very mention of the city, Shanghai brings about images of bright city lights, ancient Chinese architecture, delicious and perhaps not-so-delicious food, a hive of activity and a city that is unlike anywhere else in the world. The problem with that though is that it’s very hard to combine all of these different ideas into … Continue Reading

When we visited the Maldives for the first time, the original plan was to stay in the Maldives for 2 weeks but somewhere along the line, we got sidetracked by the island beauty that is Sri Lanka and ended up deciding to split our time between both places, spending 5 days in the Maldives (6 … Continue Reading
