Kyoto tends to conjure up images of tranquil shrines (hence why it is know as the city of a 1,000 shrines) with the most hues of flora and is a hugely popular tourist destination in Japan. If you were planning on visiting Japan, my guess is that you’ve already made a mental note to add … Continue Reading
Chiba always reminds me of friends/friendship but not for the reasons you’d think. My friend is called Chiba (it’s actually his surname) and so whenever I think of the city, I tend to think of one person. That is perhaps the most random beginning to any blog post but hopefully, the rest of it is … Continue Reading
A city within the city – Shinkuju is one of the wards within the Tokyo metropolis area. Another easy tick off the sight seeing list if you’re in Tokyo. How cute is that animation??? I found this on a blog I’m now totally obsessed with called Japan Lover and if you’re in even the slightest … Continue Reading
Hokkaido apparently is called by many other names Ezo, Yezo, Yeso, or Yesso and is the second largest island in Japan (thanks Wikipedia) 😉 One thing Hokkaido really stands out for is its beautiful natural landmarks so if you’re a nature buff (which is very different from a naturist 😉 ) then you should definitely … Continue Reading
Harajuku brings with it connotation of bright and energetic Japanese fashion but there’s a lot more than that going on in this fun city! It’s also really easy to get to from Tokyo so if you’re in the capital, you definitely need to make time to visit and do at least one of these 10 … Continue Reading
Osaka has long been one of those cities you just have to visit when in Japan with its bright lights and and so I was very pleasantly surprised to find one of these below. 🙂 It is also one of the largest metropolis in Japan and indeed, in the world so there’s so much to see and … Continue Reading
Aacck! Can’t believe I haven’t put there pictures up yet! 🙂 These photos have all been edited on my phone (huge kudos to VSCO – love that app) but I’d been so distracted by the fact that this was our very first trip to Turkey (and perhaps by all the Turkish food) that I hadn’t gotten round … Continue Reading
If ever there was a country to travel to for beautiful beaches, Thailand is it! There’s a whole heap of the best beaches in Thailand that are dotted all across the country.

I should really start our the ‘tale’ of our trip to Turkey from the very beginning but just in the same way I like to skip mains and go straight for dessert and wine, I’m going to impatiently skip the beginning till later. Arriving in Turkey, we stayed at the Rixos Premium Göcek (a bargain Lloyd … Continue Reading
For our trip to Turkey, we decided to go for the Rixos Gocek Premium Suite and Villas. Another brilliant find by Lloyd, I must add. 🙂 The hotel is actually located in Gocek and not in Dalaman but it’s a short 30-minute ride from the airport in Dalaman so we at the hotel before we … Continue Reading
After leaving the secret beach and heading back to the hotel, I decided to dawdle around the hotel, cocktail and camera in hand. Or maybe it was wine? Aaaww who cares? It went down a treat with that sunset and that’s what truly matters. 😉 🙂 I figured I might as well take you on a little … Continue Reading
For almost half a year, we called Singapore home and what a glorious half a year it was. Elements of Singapore were reminiscent of being home in London (the diversity of people and food on offer for starters) though for the most part Singapore has its own unique feel. It’s easily a city/country that I’d move … Continue Reading
I spoke earlier on about when we arrived in Turkey and I found out about the ‘Secret Beach’ (which quite frankly wasn’t really much of a secret but that’s a good thing). Well, as it turns out, to get the best spot on the beach, you need to make a reservation at the hotel to … Continue Reading
