This is one of those posts that you’re gonna need a pretty huge cuppa tea, some biscuits or perhaps even a scone or two slathered with clotted cream and (strawberry) jam to go with the post as it is rather ‘picture heavy’ so I’ll give you a minute or two to get yourself prepared. All … Continue Reading
“Where???” you ask. Palawan is a set of islands in the Philippines that can easily and rather justifiably be described as one of the most naturally beautiful places you can ever visit. Well, this made us book some flights and get ourselves over here for a little exploring; and we loved it. Whilst it’s a … Continue Reading
There isn’t really much to this story! Ha! Visiting Boston, my friends recommended I head over to Harvard and see what the general neighbourhood is like. I’d never been so I figured “Hey, why not?” Long story short, I ended up getting frozen yoghurt and headed for the nearest patch of grass I could find … Continue Reading
I love Brussels! This is a fact I came to terms with as soon as I visited. Yes, it is a vibrant city. Yes, the food is great. Yes, it is home to some of the finest chocolates in the world. But there are so many more reasons why you should visit Brussels as soon … 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
As you already know, we’d been planning on going skiing and we have arrived in Austria to do just that! By now you already know the drill and know that I will be keeping you updated on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter with all the details and no doubt hilarity that will ensue from what is actually my first … Continue Reading
Our whale watching tour was originally meant to happen on the day after we arrived in Iceland but there was a storm and all whale watching tours were cancelled everywhere. This storm held out for several days and we rescheduled a few times but the guys at Special Tours were so nice and helpful on … Continue Reading
I arrived in Vancouver not really knowing what to expect. We were in Seattle for a little over a week and Lloyd figured it would make sense to take a train up the coast to Vancouver. I’d never been to Canada prior so it seemed like such a great idea – especially the train ride … 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
Before I even get started, I’d just like to say – Croatia is one of the most beautiful countries we’ve had the pleasure of visiting this year. Morning drives (which usually means a quick nap for me – I’m a sucker for naps when someone else is driving) were so different here as your eyes … Continue Reading
Montepulciano was one of the best finds on our trip across Italy. It was one of those places we decided to pop into just a few minutes before we set off for the day and it was such a brilliant call. Even before we hit the town itself, it was nigh impossible not to stop … Continue Reading
For our trip to Turkey, we decided to go for the Rixos Gocek Premium Suite and Villas. Another brilliant find by Lloyd, I must add. 🙂 The hotel is actually located in Gocek and not in Dalaman but it’s a short 30-minute ride from the airport in Dalaman so we at the hotel before we … Continue Reading
It’d been over 10 years since I last visited Dublin when we got an invite to head over to Ireland for a couple of days to celebrate the 15th birthday of the Guinness Storehouse. Guinness itself is much older but the storehouse only started about 20-years ago as a chance to give visitors to the … Continue Reading
