I’m not even going to start by explaining how obsessed with castles and palaces I am, especially Windsor Castle. Considering the last few posts on here, I kinda feel like this is a given now. Visiting a palace or castle that once upon a time had royalty living in it is one thing but getting … Continue Reading
Fancy having a look around the ICEHOTEL? Chance are if you’re already on here, you do so let me show you around! 😉😁 On our second day at the ICEHOTEL (after our epic dinner at the Chef’s table the night before), we finally got to check out the rooms at the ICEHOTEL. At this point, … Continue Reading
There’s a part of Canada we’d never fully gotten to explore in the past and ironically, that part is one of the bits that’s actually closest to the UK. Said part is, broadly speaking, Atlantic Canada – the bits on the East Coast of Canada which, ironically, are the parts of Canada that are closest … Continue Reading
Oh, I’ve wanted to tell you about this bit for ages! Like, as soon as it happened, all I wanted to do was share it but somehow I’ve not managed to get the time to do this until now. (*It probably doesn’t help that I ended up taking like 1 million photos from this afternoon … Continue Reading
Visiting the Vatican city in Rome was something of a big deal when we visited. For starters, I’d read about it, seen photos about it and heard so many stories for so long that my excitement was through the roof at finally being able to visit. Then there’s the fact that you have to prepare … Continue Reading
Waking up bright and early after yesterday’s adventure and headed straight for breakfast before our visit to the Shirayama-Hime Shrine to begin our Misogi water purification ritual. As we strolled up to the shrine in Hakusan City, it dawned on me how special our Misogi experience was going to be. I’d never experienced any kind … Continue Reading
The next part of our road trip was gonna be all about the Moselle Valley of Germany and given how beautiful the Rhine Valley was, this was one part of the trip I was really looking forward to. Leaving Assmannshausen, we made our way over to The Moselle Loop Viewpoint. Almost forgot – to set … Continue Reading
The next morning in Iceland I woke up bright and early eager to visit Geysir hot spring, Strokkur and Gullfoss waterfall in The Golden Circle of Iceland but I found myself also strangely kinda frustrated. Like how could we have gotten the hike to the volcano the day before so wrong? And then for some … Continue Reading
After an amazing day exploring the Ilulissat Icefjord yesterday and a good night’s sleep, we arrived in Itilleq. Itilleq is a very small community within the Qeqqata region of Greenland. It’s on its own little island, just shy of mainland Greenland and near the Arctic Circle border. Itilleq is small, just in case you wondered. … Continue Reading
Seattle is one of my favourite American cities. Im fact, it reminds me of Edinburgh in the UK in a lot of ways. Not in terms of the architecture or anything else fairly obvious, more in terms of the vibe of being in a city. It’s big enough that you don’t feel claustrophobic, yet small … Continue Reading
Walking around Singapore at night and then out of nowhere (or maybe there were warning signs and we just ignored them) this tropical thunderstorm appears lighting up the sky every few seconds and as you can imagine, I quickly whipped out my camera and captured a few shots. It’s a strange sensation being outdoors in that … Continue Reading
When my friends suggested booking a trip to Thailand, I immediately jumped on board – Thailand is a one country that possesses some of the most magnificent sights in the world and a travel destination that beckons to millions of people each year and rightly so. You may have noticed a lack of blog posts these … Continue Reading
Hey there, You may have noticed a reduced rate of blog posts lately and for that I apologise. In the past few weeks, I’ve been at the end of my degree at Cambridge Uni and it’s pretty much eaten up every bit of free time I had. Now, that Uni days are finally over expect a … Continue Reading
It was my friend’s birthday this weekend and we all converged in the countryside for a proper knees-up to celebrate said birthday! The day itself involved quite a lot of wine, beers and cider – along with generous lashing of delicious pub grub before the evening descended into a state of thoroughly fun organised chaos. The … Continue Reading
