I’ll just start by answering that question with a huge spoiler alert – a roadtrip from the UK to Austria is soooooooo much fun!  It isn’t necessarily the most obvious road trip route we would have thought of (in large part because we in the UK live on an island physically disconnect from mainland Europe) … Continue Reading

Salar de Uyuni or more commonly referred to (in English at least) as the Bolivian Salt Flats. Chances are that you’ve either been there to see them in person or that you’ve seen those photos of your friends playing around with perspectives and pretending to eat, trample or pick each other up like ants. For the … Continue Reading

Muizenberg is a beach suburb in Cape Town and while we didn’t really get the chance to explore Muizenberg in any real depth, one thing we knew we certainly had to do was head down to the beach, albeit not for the obvious reasons one would expect. The thing is Georgia had heard about the colourful beach … Continue Reading

Amsterdam’s labyrinthine canals are what this brilliant Dutch city is famous for… well, one of the things it’s famous for and so getting to drive a boat for the first time ever, and through the canals of Amsterdam nonetheless was a pretty special experience!

A German Christmas market is something of a festive staple with us and suffices to say, it was only a matter of time before we headed over to the city of Stuttgart (in Germany, for the uninitiated) for some much-needed gluhwein, as much bratwurst as we could handle and many-a-caramelised erdnuss.

The day was filled with amazing waterfalls, scary yet impressive looking volcanos, … Continue Reading

*Warning: As with most of my posts from Croatia, this is another photo-heavy post. 🙂 Makarska is a small city by the sea in Croatia (not too far from Split) and is easily becoming one of the most popular holiday destinations in Croatia! When I visited, it was fairly easy to see why.  The day … Continue Reading

Cusco is one of the most popular cities to visit in Peru (in fact, it’s arguably the most popular) and with good reason too – its a gateway to many an adventure in this amazing country thanks to its cross-country connectivity and almost every trip to Peru should definitely include Cusco in its itinerary (even … Continue Reading

The following morning in Kyushu, we got up bright and early, greeted by the sight of the Japanese countryside as we meandered through on the Seven Stars. Even as we got ready for breakfast, we knew we’d miss this train once we eventually got off it in Fukuoka. It was just everything we’d hoped it … Continue Reading

I wanted to write this post almost immediately after we returned from the restaurant! If it weren’t for my food haze and subsequent indulgence in some South African red wine, I would have been singing the praise of this place almost as soon as we got back to the Singa Lodge. How did we find … Continue Reading

This is something of a different post! Well, actually, it’s not that different, it just starts with a freebie we all can use at the best places to shop in London. 🙂 I’ve always been a fan of making money stretch as far as it can – doesn’t matter if it’s £10 or £1,000. After all, no … Continue Reading
