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

After a week in Paris, I was more than happy to be headed back home. I never really thought about it at the time but this was my first solo trip in quite a long while but I was so busy all the while I was there that I really didn’t get much time to … Continue Reading

The Isles of Scilly are a pictureque set of islands off the coast of Cornwall and are nothing like any island you’ve ever seen in the UK. The island’s beaches, clear blue waters, warm temperature and even the plants will probably leave you feeling like you’ve taken a trip to a tropical Caribbean island – … Continue Reading

After lunch on our second day in Croatia, we wandered off from the restaurant to another part of the building where I discovered where they kept their homemade wine… And as though that wasn’t enough, I found out where the prosciutto was cured too! To be fair, I was led there by my sense of … Continue Reading

On our third morning in Croatia, we hurriedly grabbed breakfast – only ‘hurriedly’ by the way because I choose to spend more time sleeping over getting breakfast. The only flaw with that plan is that I still choose to eat as much at breakfast as if I’d had a full hour to eat breakfast. The … Continue Reading

One of the biggest sights I’d wanted to see in Bergen was the UNESCO World Heritage site of Bryggen. I’d spoken about it on the blog before and so when we finally booked our flights to Bergen, this was something I’d put at a high priority on my itinerary! First things first though, we checked … Continue Reading

*Warning: As with most of my posts from Croatia, this is another photo-heavy post. 🙂 Makarska is a small city by the sea in Croatia (not too far from Split) and is easily becoming one of the most popular holiday destinations in Croatia! When I visited, it was fairly easy to see why.  The day … Continue Reading

I do love a good getaway… especially to Bristol!   In any case, off I’m out and about exploring Bristol in more detail this weekend and so far so good. I swear there’s just something about summertime in the UK generally that makes every city that extra bit special. I’ve been fairly relaxed all evening, chilling … Continue Reading

My weekend away was so much fun. One thing is for sure, I was blessed with beautiful sunshine all-day, all-weekend! If you’re from the UK, you will know how rare this much sunshine can be. 🙂 It’s as if Booking.com made their app foolproof just for me! Somehow I always seem to take a wrong … Continue Reading

Burgers well and truly demolished (and satisfyingly so) I figured it was time to pack in as much of the harbour festival as was left of it for the day before heading back to the hotel for a bit of pool time pre-dinner. Everyone was having such a glorious time and I was in high … Continue Reading
