Ah, Europe – where do I even begin? đŸ™‚ Of course, calling this part of the world home means that I am slightly biased when it comes to things to see and do here but there honestly isn’t a season that ‘isn’t good’ to visit Europe. Granted you might wanna veer North during winter and … Continue Reading

Confession: The very first West End Theatre Show In London I saw was years and years ago and I remember being very unenthusiastic prior to seeing it. It was all Lloyd’s idea; mostly to escape the cold in London. We’d all popped round to celebrate New Year’s in London (we hadn’t moved to London back … Continue Reading

Truth be told, you can visit almost any country in Europe and find some incredible casltes.

  I finish school this year and hopefully will have the opportunity to travel next year! I am planning to go to France and England for a month and if I have enough time maybe Germany or Scotland.   I was just wondering if you could give me some tips on how much I should … Continue Reading

Lloyd and I always seek a way to try to travel as often as possible whilst still working and studying. Well, this meant we had to be savvy with our free time, so looking for the very best weekend trips in Europe was essential.  This is perfect if you’re working full-time because weekend travel requires … Continue Reading

Europe may well be one of the smaller continents but it’s also one of the most tightly-packed when it comes to the number of countries that are here. That’s what makes it a great region to explore the huge mix of cultures, history and more unusual places in Europe that are dotted all across the … Continue Reading

There’s good reason why millions of Europeans (and indeed, travellers from all over the world) flock to the Mediterranean islands, year in year out. These islands at the very bottom of Europe, are some of the most beautiful places to visit in Europe – not to mention how they pretty much guaranteed to have amazing … Continue Reading

Perched on the banks of Lake Geneva, the city of Geneva is one of Switzerland’s best cities to explore. It’s one of those places that’s just so much fun, especially with all the best things to do in Geneva that seem to be dotted all across the city itself. After visiting Geneva a few times, … Continue Reading

When we arrived in Jasper, we’d originally had a whole day set aside for skiing in Marmot Basin. With the change of plans on the first day which saw us explore the amazing Pyramid Island, lake and mountain area, before heading off to the Icefields Parkway instead of Maligne Canyon and hence moving Maligne Canyon … Continue Reading

As I write this post, I am frantically packing my suitcase and stuffing in winter coats, beach shorts, warm woolly jumpers, flip-flops…etc amongst other things. It feels so strange to be packing such contrasting travel gear (winter coats and beach short???) but there’s a good reason behind this. We’re getting ready to visit a few … Continue Reading

I consider myself to be something of an inconsistent snorer. On the whole, I don’t regularly snore however I’ve found that over the last few years (and for some reason, particular exacerbated since I moved to London) that I have moments where I become that guy that snores and either amuses or frustrates everyone else … Continue Reading

… yeah, you know its coming so grab yourself a glass of bubbly while I sit down and brace yourself while I sing your praises! đŸ˜€ But first, I’m going to break with protocol and talk a bit more about numbers. This year, we’ve seen numbers on the blog grow to amounts we couldn’t even … Continue Reading

Italian lakes (usually found in the North of Italy) are famous the world over! Lake Como, Lake Maggiore, and Lake Garda to name just a few are some of the most popular so it probably comes as no surprise that we decided to visit one of these amazing lakes in Italy. Lake Garda was our … Continue Reading

Fresh off the high of that amazing Maldivian sunset (champagne-fuelled) cruise at the amazing Kandolhu island, we headed off for cocktails by moonlight (which somehow seems even more special than cocktails by bar-light đŸ˜‰ ), before heading out to dinner. I say ‘heading out’, we must have walked all of 10 steps to the Sea … Continue Reading
