I get A LOT of travel inspiration from travel bloggers. Unique stories of places I’ve never been before, recommendations on places to visit and tips and tricks to help me travel the world more is such an invaluable source of information and one that I am always grateful for. Blogging has always been a two-way street … Continue Reading

It’s been a while since I’ve had one of these kinda days in London… London is glorious in summer time! There’s just so much more stuff to do and with the sun shining brightly, very little excuse not to to do said stuff! Even on slightly overcast days like today, the sun managed to peek … Continue Reading

Summer time’s here and you know what that means – POOL TIME! One of our favourite things to do whenever we visit anywhere warm is to figure out a way to spend some time in the pool! Even when the four of us were road tripping across America, it didn’t matter what time we arrived … 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

With our treasure hunt in Helsinki’s business district over, we headed straight back to the Hotel Scandic Paasi  to show off our finds for the Scandic Hotels #Nordics48h mini challenege, grab a bite or two to eat and have some much needed and well-earned ‘Loyly’ time. Loyly by the way is the steam that comes from … Continue Reading

The next morning, we got up bright and early (and thankfully hungover free) headed out to breakfast, swiftly followed by a whistle-stop tour of Helsinki after which we hopped into a taxi and headed to our next surprise destination… Rovio! The home of the Angry Birds. The buildings slowly started to change as we drove out … Continue Reading

Just like we named our blog… Yaya and I always travel with “Hand Luggage Only”… Although we have broken our rules on a few, exceptional cases! One was when we headed to see the Northern Lights in Iceland and our camera equipment wouldn’t fit in the cabin of the aircraft! The other time was all … Continue Reading

So, I spent last week in France (as you can probably tell from our Instagram) and it was something of a strange week. On one side, I had a rather weird experience (absolutely unrelated to France) which I will share with you once I get round to writing about it properly but on the flip … Continue Reading

Now any Game of Thrones fan worth their salt knows Croatia plays a key role in the series. A lot of Daenerys’ scenes were shot here in Split and scenes from Kings Landing were shot in Dubrovnik. It’s very easy to take for granted while watching the series the reason behind the location choices on … Continue Reading

We arrived in the evening and made a beeline straight for our abode for the night  – the Cornarro Hotel. The location of this hotel, by the way, is perfect for a trip to Split as it’s a short walk from the major sights in the city! We were welcomed with sweet and a bottle … Continue Reading

Okay it wasn’t right across all of Croatia but it was for over 40km (about 25 miles) and seeing as this was out first time doing on quad bikes, I think it’s safe to say it was quite a big deal for both of us. To be fair though, this was one of the things … Continue Reading

*Due to the large size, this post has been split into two parts. Click here for Part 2. It started, like most of our travel plans usually do, when Yaya and I got itchy feet over dinner. Somehow, Denmark always seemed to be on my; Yes, I will go there soon, type of country.  Yet, … Continue Reading

*Due to the large size, this post has been split into two parts. Click here for Part 1. 5.) Boat Tour Later on in the afternoon, we decided it might be good to take in more of wonderful Copenhagen, there are two ways which I think are the best to see the city by one … Continue Reading

Yes, I’m officially obsessed with travel blogs! I love reading what other people have gotten up to on their travels and getting inspired by amazing travellers and bloggers! There’s always something new to see or someplace new to explore and these blog posts this week have in a roundabout way both satisfied my travel lust … Continue Reading
