We’ve all been there, yeah? You’ve been longing to explore London, you’ve discovered where to find the best views in London and even planned which of the London markets to explore. That being said, you’ve got to visit London on a budget – after all, that money doesn’t come for free. Its happened to me … Continue Reading
There are so many great reasons to visit Norway. In fact, I’d even go as far as saying it’s probably hard to find a reason not to! (Yup, even the cold isn’t an excuse as it gets incredibly warm in summer). Like other Nordic countries (here’s looking at you Finland, Iceland, Sweden and Denmark), Norway is one … Continue Reading
Straight after our afternoon sampling, all the Guinness storehouse had to offer (see part 1 here and part 2 here), we headed back to the hotel which was understandably rather festively decorated. Maybe I’d just been away from London for so long and missed it but it definitely seemed like the Irish (or at least … Continue Reading
France is an absolutely beautiful country to explore. With all the incredible places in Paris to see, beautiful spots in Provence and beautiful regions like Brittany, France has it all. This is even more true when it comes to the iconic chateaus and best castles in France that are dotted all across the country. Over … Continue Reading
Whenever you visit any city, especially if it’s for a weekend, it always makes sense to stay right in the centre of all the attraction. Okay, not smack bang in the middle but definitely close enough that you don’t end up spending you’re precious holiday time commuting to see all the sights. With this in … Continue Reading
Our safari adventure started in Johannesburg but we didn’t get to see much of the city. We arrived late in the afternoon and by the time we had checked into the hotel, freshed up, gone for a quick dip in the pool and subsequently had to refreshen up again, it was night time so we … Continue Reading
The Isles of Scilly are a little-known (and some may say, secret) gem in the UK. Only 30 miles or so from Great Britain, the islands are basked in a tropical haze that we can only ever wish for in London! Yes, you read that correctly, the islands are a tropical gem that is perfect … Continue Reading
Yup! We just arrived today and I’m already falling head over heels in love with this French city! See, I’d only ever gone past Lille on the way to Brussels or Amsterdam (also via Brussels) and I’d always been curious so we decided it was finally time to visit. We zoomed up to Lille in … Continue Reading
Our trip to the Basque Country in Spain was definitely one of the most memorable trips we’ve had. We got to make new friends, eat lots of different and amazing foods to our heart’s contents and become a lot more open to travel. In the past, I’d (like everyone else I suppose) been particularly keen … Continue Reading
The inspiration behind this post comes from me trying to play this game with Lloyd over dinner in Lille and getting strange looks from him while he obsessed over his camembert! *Side note – I tasted the camembert and I have to admit – I get it, I wouldn’t have paid attention to myself if … Continue Reading
I’ll be the first to admit, before moving to live in Singapore, I can’t say I knew much about this tiny country. I had a friend living there who gave me a quick low-down on what areas to look for apartments in and told me how safe it all was…etc but that was about it. I … Continue Reading
We have a real deep love of all things South Africa and an even deeper love of all things food. So what better way to pair our two loves together than by finding some of those secret eating spots to discover while in Cape Town. You may remember that we visited Cape Town and … Continue Reading
After a few days in Madrid (and a quick stopover for a few hours back at home in London), we finally headed out to the Maldives! I can’t even pretend! I’d been looking forward to this trip for quite a while so I was justifiably excited when it finally arrived. A few movies, a snooze and a ‘couple’ of … Continue Reading
Suffice it to say, it’s not just visitors to our amazing city that’ll want to explore some of these unusual places, even us Londoners forget what’s on our doorstep every now and again. One of the things I love most about London is that there’s always something new and interesting to discover. Whether that’s some … Continue Reading
