Brittany is one part of France that has always fascinated me; and for very good reason. For starters, there’s that name – Brittany, which to the uninitiated would sound like it was linked in some way to Great Britain. And they wouldn’t be wrong either. In addition to Scotland, Wales, Ireland, Cornwall and the Isle … Continue Reading

The following morning in Sarlat, we found ourselves with a fair bit of free time. We would be meeting with a chef later in the day to try some proper cuisine from the region but for now, time to see Sarlat in the glorious sunshine! As we were in Sarlat on a Saturday morning, the … Continue Reading

After hiking and exploring Mont Ventoux yesterday, today was going to be a little more chilled. Especially as the weather turned a little grey, which made for the perfect excuse to seek shelter indoors and sip on some local wines. Before that though, I was still determined to get back to Séguret after our fleeting little visit … Continue Reading

First off, let me start by apologising for how many times I saw “absolutely” in this! 😀 😀 😀 I never even realised it till I was watching this back and thinking “I really need to diversify my vocabulary…” *face palm* That aside though, the Dorodgne Valley in France is absolutely worth all the praised, admiration … Continue Reading

After a brilliant day exploring the beauty that is Montpellier, we decided to head out of the city to go explore other parts of France’s beautiful Occitanie region. About an hour from Montpellier is the town of Millau, home to the tallest bridge in the world – amongst many other things of course! There’s a … Continue Reading

Arriving in the Dordogne Valley, I had no idea what to expect. We’d flown in from London after almost 2 months of travelling and this time, I’d left most of the planning to Lloyd. I was knackered upon arrival in Brive and pretty much slept all of the way from the airport till we got to … Continue Reading

Montpellier is one of the best cities to visit in France but it’s so underrated because let’s face it, this is France we’re talking about and there are so many popular cities all across France that not all cities get quite the attention they deserve. It’s funny because most people know the name of the … Continue Reading

Our last evening on our trip to the Dordogne Valley in France was spent in a beautiful chateau with its adjoining vineyard – Chateau de Panisseau. We’d arrived shortly after leaving the charming village of Issigeac and wasted no time in checking out the new digs. This place is sheer French perfection – right down … Continue Reading

Yup! You heard right! 🙂 The south of France is synonymous with beautiful beaches, great weather and I guess a truly decadent lifestyle yet it is also full of so much amazing history and sights. In the interest of full disclosure, I hadn’t heard much about Nimes until I was looking on SkyScanner.net for a … Continue Reading

We arrived in Geneva on a delightfully sunny day – the kind that makes you wanna hurriedly chuck your luggage into your hotel room and head out exploring straight away! And so that’s what we did! The hotel was thankfully within walking distance of the city centre so we head out on foot, strolling leisurely … Continue Reading

As you could probably tell from Instagram, we went skiing a couple of weeks ago in the Alps and boy was it fun! It was our second time skiing and so, I felt so much pressure to practise what I’d learnt the first time – turned out to be not quite as scary as I’d … Continue Reading
