This region of Norway is gorgeous, especially from the best viewpoint in Bergen. After our late lunch in Bryggen, we made our way to the Fløibanen station to take the funicular up to Mount Fløyen for the best view of all of Bergen! This view is particularly spectacular as the sun sets so make sure … Continue Reading

Straight off the back of New York came Rio de Janeiro! Rio was something of an experience… So here’s the thing – the city has a reputation for being unsafe but it also has a reputation for being one of the most beautiful cities out there so it’s just hard trying to figure out what … Continue Reading

Yup! We’re up in the Arctic Circle. I am writing this post looking right outside my window at a snow-clad mountain in one of the most beautiful places (and certainly the highest place) we’ve ever visit – Tromso in Norway. Sounds like a bold claim but I’m gonna put the photos down below and you … Continue Reading

If you’ve been on our Instagram, Twitter or Facebook lately, you’ll probably have noticed that we’ve been to Japan – more specifically, Tokyo and I’ve got to say, this city is everything we’d hoped it would be and more. The trip came about as something of a last minute whim-after-wine with friends as we saw … Continue Reading

We arrived in Gdansk on a rather cold Friday night. It was so late by the time we arrived that we barely saw anything of the city and seeing as it was our first time in Poland, I can’t even say that we knew what to expect. 🙂 Still, the four of us (me, Lloyd, … Continue Reading

Our recent return to Portugal was certainly something of an eye opener! In addition to visiting a particular favourite of mine (Hey Lisbon), we got to head down to the coast and check out other parts of Portugal that we’d never seen of even heard of just a few months before visiting – it was … Continue Reading

Truth be told until we arrived in Fuerteventura, I’d never even heard of, let alone thought of visiting Betancuria; terrible, I know!  Even after arriving in this gorgeous village, I still struggled to pronounce the name properly (still not sure if I know how to pronounce it properly now actually but I think it’s miles … Continue Reading

This week we’ve returned to Switzerland (as you could probably tell from our Instagram) and for the most part of the week, we’ve basically flitted between the city lights of Zurich (and the tranquil charm of Ascona and Lake Maggiore in Ticino). It has been amazing! The weather has been so good (like ‘middle of … Continue Reading

Remember when I said to you how you can go on Safari in Scotland? Well, the idea has been stuck in my head since then and I finally got round to going! The safari park is called Blair Drummond Safari and Adventure Park and it was such a fun-filled day. This is meant to be a photo … 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

Whether you actively set out to see wildlife (as you might in a safari or a trip to the zoo) or you happen to come across them totally randomly as you explore your current travel destination, it’s safe to say that taking photos of animals in their natural (or simulated) habitat can prove rather tricky. … Continue Reading

Leaving El Nido, we decided to go for a “different experience” in the Philippines. Well, not so much a “different experience“, as much as a different island. In our prosecco-induced booking haze, we kinda already knew Bohol was a great place to visit in the Philippines (as well as Siargao – which is a lot … Continue Reading

These are the photos from our trip to Cinque Terre in Italy! Each of these 5 UNESCO World Heritage sites is so unique and so beautiful that I genuinely struggled to cram all the photos taken into one blog post (even for a photo heavy blog post, it would have been way too many photos) … Continue Reading

As far as Greek holidays go, it’s probably safe to say that the islands (and some of the bigger cities in-land) tend to get most of the attention. Everyone wants (or has) that amazing photo of Santorini, Mykonos or Athens and very little spare a thought for some of the more rustic parts on the … Continue Reading
