At least once a year, we gather round up our group of friends and head off somewhere on a bit of an adventure! This time we decided to head to the Roman city of Nimes… in France, believe it or not. (The year before was Berlin and the first one for this year is South … 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
Following, our (rather lazy) first evening in Madrid, we decided that we would do our very best to make up for it the next day by cramming in as many of the best things to do in Madrid as we possibly could. Thankfully, as it turns out, Madrid is quite a walkable city which is … Continue Reading
After a little lay in (after visiting Séguret yesterday), we left Mazan around 9:30 am on our last day exploring Provence. Even though it was our last day, I still planned to make it count with a few spots I’d been itching to see since we arrived. With a big breakfast to start my day right … Continue Reading
New Orleans is one of those incredible cities that you don’t forget easily. Its buzzing energy and (without sounding too corny) its soul seem to stay with you long after you leave. I stayed a few short days in New Orleans, before heading west too, “Houston, Texas… baby!” (Sorry, I couldn’t resist a Beyonce song … Continue Reading
After the day in the vineyard and checking out Plettenberg bay, I figured it was high time to head back to Tsitsikamma in search of food. We’d been so so eager to cram as many sights as possible into the day that, save for a mid-afternoon gorge on beef biltong, we’d pretty much forgotten all about food! Back … Continue Reading
A weekend in the Cotswolds is always a good idea! Said weekend in question is made even better when you get to stay in an old historic British countryside home! It’s even amped up some more when you get a classic British car to see the weekend through with (more on that below). Now, this … Continue Reading
Trentino is a part of Italy, we’ve long been fond of! It’s a part of Italy that looks and feels like nowhere else in Italy! It’s just such a special place and one we had such a great time exploring the first time we visited. Then there’s Lake Garda – home to some rather amazing … Continue Reading
You’ve seen our complete guide to planning your own Great British Road Trip and you’ve probably even seen some of the places we visited on our Facebook or Instagram but we’ve put together a little vlog of our time exploring some of the amazing delights and sights the South of England has to offer. We … Continue Reading
I am one of those people that never learned to ski growing up. In fact, I didn’t really start skiing until around six years ago. That being said, skiing is now one of my favourite winter trips to go on… and, surprisingly (or perhaps not), not just because of the skiing itself. As they say, … Continue Reading
Especially so if you’re visiting Barcelona to have a good time! Taking in all the sights to see in Barcelona is so much fun but it’s also pretty hungry business and so, after a long and fulfilling day sightseeing with locals (and one filled many things Gaudi), all we (and our feet) wanted to do was … Continue Reading
The next day, after a leisurely breakfast, we packed our suitcases up and said farewell to Muotka Wilderness Lodge. Fun as it was, we would be moving to a different hotel for the next couple of days here (which is something we’d arrange with Inghams Holiday prior to arriving so no surprises there). As we … Continue Reading
If you ever find yourself driving in Iceland, you will find that you will have to make many impromptu road stops just to take in the landscape and take in a few photos. Try as you might, no one can resist doing this and it is this very act that led the 4 of us … Continue Reading
Once upon a time, we used to live in Scotland (back when we were students up in St Andrews), but never had the time to explore. That being said, today, we were gonna change that by exploring Dunnottar Castle in Scotland. It’s funny but even living in Edinburgh (after university), I always kinda took it … Continue Reading
