Confession: I’m still not entirely sure how to pronounce Phuket! Is the ‘Ph’ pronounced like ‘F’ or ‘P’. Come to think of it, is the ‘Ket’ pronounced like ‘Pet” or ‘Pit’.

This is exactly why I wanted to share some of the best places to go in the UK that aren’t just the obvious spots. Yes, we’ve … Continue Reading

See what I did there? Hehehe! 😉 🙂 🙂 Right, so this has been kept under wraps for too long and I can’t hold out on you longer! We’ve got some exciting news!!! We’ve been invited to explore the Basque Country in Spain, more specifically, the province of Gipuzkoa over the next few days! And … Continue Reading

I was never a fan of wandering around aimlessly in the dark but one of the biggest realisations that changed my mind entirely was the realisation that caves … Continue Reading

There isn’t really much to this story! Ha! Visiting Boston, my friends recommended I head over to Harvard and see what the general neighbourhood is like. I’d never been so I figured “Hey, why not?” Long story short, I ended up getting frozen yoghurt and headed for the nearest patch of grass I could find … Continue Reading

After a couple of days in The Blue Lagoon in Iceland, we moved bases to Reykjavik (we had a car so moving around was quite easy) and so on this particular day, we set off to see as many Icelandic sights as possible! The day was filled with amazing waterfalls, scary yet impressive looking volcanos, … Continue Reading

I‘m sorry but I think I just broke the internet! I wasn’t even planning on it!  These photos of me on the beach in Bermuda have been described (by not a single person) as the most salaciously amazing photos on the internet! I should even just change the title of this post to #BrokeTheInternet Hahaha! … Continue Reading

The day after we had our sailing trip across Santorini, there was one thing that we all had on minds that all wanted to to – climbing that mountain in the middle of the Caldera! The very next day, we headed out to Fira and got our tickets to do just that! First things first … Continue Reading

It might seem like something of an ambiguous question but the answer is a lot more straight-forward than you’d think. ANSWER. It is not the number of places you have been to or length of time you spend away from home that makes you a traveller. What makes you a traveller is your lust and … Continue Reading

The best part about Iceland is that all these epic natural wonders are all free to explore. You see, as long as you can get to where they are (by car, bus or whatever mode of transportation you have), you can pop in to see them without paying a penny. First up, our day started … Continue Reading

The Cotswolds are renowned for being of the most sought after places to live in and indeed to holiday in, in the UK and rightly so. Every time we’ve been, it’s been the picturesque essence of British charm – even on dark and overcast days. The winding streets, ancient houses, cheerful people and acres of … Continue Reading
