After spending several nights in Basseterre, the capital city of St Kitts, it finally dawned on me that we’d actually never properly seen the city. We’d been pretty much zipping through the island from one fun activity to the next but hadn’t had any real time in the city. To correct that, we set off … Continue Reading
The next morning in Stuttgart (after a brilliant evening in Esslingen), I woke up with an extra spring in my step! As you might already know, I’m a huge sucker for castles. There’s just something so grand about them that I absolutely love and today, we would be visiting one of the most iconic castles, … Continue Reading
It was our final day in Cusco and yet somehow, we still hadn’t managed to get round to trying one of the (unofficial) national dishes of Peru – Cuy. Cuy is roast guinea pig, given what it is you can probably guess why we’d skipped this at every meal so far! My only experience with … Continue Reading
After our full day exploring Calgary (and eating our way through it), it was finally time to bid the city farewell and head out into the Canadian Rocky Mountains of Alberta. Canadian cities are great fun (especially if you know the best places to eat, drink and dance) but the great outdoors is without a … Continue Reading
Breakfast on our final morning in the Cotswolds started (…after a nice bath) with eggs royale for myself and gggs & soldiers for Lloyd. All washed down with some freshly brewed coffee. The Royal Oak is a fairly small and intimate place (I think there are only 6 rooms in total) so you’re quite likely … Continue Reading
Castle Combe is one of the most beautiful places you can visit in not near and around the Cotswolds, but in the British countryside, as a whole! It’s such a charming little place and is one of those places most people who visit, pretty much fall in love with straight away! It’s very close to … Continue Reading
There are loads of beautiful things to do in Samos. I mean, I don’t think I’ve ever said anything different when it comes to Greece and its beautiful islands. Samos is a little less known, unlike its more popular siblings of Corfu, Santorini or Mykonos. Though, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t visit. You’ll love it. This was … Continue Reading
London is a spectacular city at any time of the year, but the atmosphere, buzz and al round goodwill. Alongside some amazing fireworks make for an unforgettable night! Best of All it can be done on a budget! For the last 8 years or so I have always managed to enjoy London on New Year’s … Continue Reading
There are so many amazing things to see in the Faroe Islands. I mean, where do you start. It’s a tiny archipelago that packs a hefty punch in experiences for us travellers. From a whole heap of waterfalls, more sheep than people and an incredible lake that sits on the edge of a cliff, the … Continue Reading

Travel blogging extends this experience by providing a place to share these experiences and learn from fellow like-minded curious traveller. About a week ago, we were speaking with Stephen from … Continue Reading
The next morning in Tel Aviv, after our busy day before traipsing across the city, we decided to take things a lot slower. See, today was Tel Aviv pride which meant a huge party across the city as 250,000 revellers descended upon Tel Aviv. Thing is though, Pride is about so much more than just … Continue Reading
In my last post here, I promised that I would update snapchat on the go (username – HandLuggageOnly) but seeing as I didn’t have internet, somewhere in between the hive of activity we’ve had all day, all my snaps disappeared! (Not impressed Snapchat). It’s almost past 1am here in South Africa and seeing as the … Continue Reading
After our much-needed lazy and relaxed first day in Sri Lanka, we arranged something very special the very next morning. A boat ride through Madu Ganga river! This was in part ‘special’ because this is something I’d wanted to do after we left Sri Lanka last time, actually get to experience more ‘real’ parts of … Continue Reading
Thanks to the amazing weather in Florida all year round, there are a whole host of things to do when you visit Florida but one of the key attractions is most definitely taking a visit to The Everglades. The Everglades is a UNESCO World Heritage site and is the largest designated sub-tropical wilderness reserve on … Continue Reading
