Even the very name invokes images of magic and fairytales. This is the kind of forest you imagine Red Riding Hood running through or where Snow White meets the Seven Dwarfs… There are so many reasons why this magical fairytale-esque forest should be visited in person and here are some of them! Image Via   … Continue Reading

When in San Antonio, I highly recommend going to watch the sunset over this beautifully laid-back Texas city… and the best place to see the sunset is the Tower of the Americas. The Tower is open from 10 am to 10 pm and costs $10.95 (with a $2 discount for children and seniors. Children under … Continue Reading

Hello – the hallmark start to any half-decent conversation or interaction across the world. Considering how universal the greeting is – it kinda makes sense there should be just one way to say but having just one word to greet each other with would rob the world of its diversity (and us travellers of reasons … Continue Reading

I’ve got one question for you! Why had no one told me how beautiful San Sebastian is? I love a beautiful city as much as next traveller but for some reason or the other, I’d never quite made it to San Sebastian – this all changed however when we visited The Basque Country. But you … Continue Reading

Winter is upon us in the Northern Hemisphere right now and as cold and somewhat frustrating as it can be sometimes, this is the best time of the year to have a fairly unique holiday experience and visit some places across the world that quite literally get transformed by winter into a winter paradise of … 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

Truth be told, there are so many incredible free things to do in Berlin that you’ll be spoilt for choice. This is especially true if you’re looking to explore some of the cities histories, markets and culture. Now, for me, this is one of the main reasons why I love the city so much. It … Continue Reading

This post started off on another tangent but very quickly evolved when I looked through the photos. Initially, it was gonna show you an aspect of San Sebastian I really enjoyed (the eating and drinking) but when I started looking through the photos, I realised there’s no way I could do that without showing you … Continue Reading

Well they are amazing is what they are! In my last post, I kinda kept getting distracted by food, well this is that food post! So back to the matter at hand – Pintxos! Pintxos are technically Hors d’oeuvres but you can pretty much turn it into a main meal. The idea is basically that … Continue Reading

Ah, macarons… These colourful (and apparently) tasty delights are a French treat famous the world over but I’ve gotta ask, are they really all they’re hyped up to be? I’ve never really understood the appeal of macarons, I’ve had them in the past and while they’re okay, they’re never like “Oh my gosh, I can’t … Continue Reading

Prague is an incredible city to visit! Though, with so many things to do and places to see, it can be quite costly. You see, it’s the kind of city where you can sink a load of dosh if you’re not too careful. This is exactly why we wanted to share some of the free … Continue Reading

And boy, did it rain in Palermo! Our trip to Palermo was one all four of us were looking forward to for ages. The Sicilian city, which I kept referring to as “The Old Country” thanks to The Godfather book (depending on which one you saw/read), promised to be warmer than London and so we … Continue Reading

On initially booking, I’ve gotta say, I was expecting somewhere nice. The hotel – Tulip House Hotel was ranked number 3 on Trip Advisor (of all hotels in Bratislava) so my expectation was realistically high… Gotta say though, it definitely surpassed my expectations. We got picked up at the airport in a private car (I love … Continue Reading

Just been pondering a few things I would like some thoughts on. This isn’t even a travel, food or home post so I’m not even sure where to put this thing on the blog. Pretty sure it doesn’t even belong on here but I’m not letting that stop me so please do share your thoughts on the … Continue Reading
