It’s mostly because of how cute they are! 🙂 We visited Boulder Beach … Continue Reading
Despite having an amazing time just relaxing on the most amazing white sandy beach, we very eagerly hurried away from the beach and headed straight for the dock at the Angsana Ihuru Maldives. Why? Well we had a sunset cruise booked and this was definitely one I’d been looking forward to and had no plans to … Continue Reading
Starting off at the temple in Anuradhapura was an ideal place to start our tour and learn a bit more of why this city is significant to Sri Lanka’s history (it is the first capital after all and a UNESCO World Heritage site) but there’s so much to see in Anuradhapura that you kinda need to … Continue Reading

Swiftly following on from the 30 things you need to know before visiting Italy and a little inspired by this table cloth (via our snapchat @HandLuggageOnly – see tweet below), I figured it made sense to accompany that little guide with a food section. A food guide to Italy! (Probably a tacky souvenir to have but actually … Continue Reading
The Giri Cafe – quaint, beautiful cafe by day, amazing restaurant by night! But more on that in a moment… Instead, let’s step back a couple of hours to The Giri Residence (the most amazing luxury hotel owned by the same people) where we’d decided to try on the 24 hour breakfast.
