Cornwall is a gorgeous area of England to explore. With its stunning coastline and the most beautiful places, there’s a whole heap of things to keep you busy on your trip to the west country. That being said, lots of people forget to visit the manors and mix of best castles in Cornwall that are … Continue Reading
If you haven’t, then permit me to take you on a little tour around Paderborn… Oddly enough, for all the times I’d been to Paderborn (for the German Christmas markets – packed with oodles of gluhwein and the Libori festival with its fun fair… and to visit family), I’d never been around the city properly until it … Continue Reading
We arrived in Florence ridiculously late. We’d been so distracted by San Miniato (and that sunset) and ended up spending a few hours winding through the Tuscan mountains in the dark until we got to our hotel for the night. It was pretty cold up in the mountains and suddenly, the t-shirt and shorts combo … Continue Reading
Hands down, Santorini is one of my favourite Greek destinations and probably one of the most ‘well-known’ out of the hundreds of tiny little islands that blanket the Aegean Sea. The island itself has some of the best scenery and pretty little towns that perch onto the high cliff edges of the volcanic caldera, it’s a truly … Continue Reading
I love winter. The cold crisp air, snow and picturesque beauty always leaves gives me fond memories of good times. I always ‘try’ to embrace the cold and love that feeling of wrapping up in a toasty coat and gloves while burying your chin within a fluffy scarf, the only thing that could make it any … Continue Reading
You’ve loved the hype of Christmas and New Years Eve; the carols, the gifts, the prosecco, the 8 mince pies you scoffed alone, even seeing your tipsy family members fawn over your significant other… but what should you do for New Year’s Day? There always seems to be so much pressure on ‘doing’ something for … Continue Reading
Wandering around Gdansk is understandably distracting (Reason 1 and Reason 2 are right here) and although we’d spotted where we were eventually going to have lunch hours before lunch, it wasn’t until I realised how much I needed to pee that I realised how hungry I was. 😂 I hurriedly dragged my motley crew of … Continue Reading
Our trip to the Basque Country in Spain was definitely one of the most memorable trips we’ve had. We got to make new friends, eat lots of different and amazing foods to our heart’s contents and become a lot more open to travel. In the past, I’d (like everyone else I suppose) been particularly keen … Continue Reading
To be honest, I had no idea what to expect from the Canary Islands. I knew they are islands off the coast of Africa (near Morocco to be more precise) and that the weather is pretty great but asides those fairly obvious facts, I didn’t know what to prepare myself for. The first thing that … Continue Reading
Florence is one of those gorgeous Italian cities that needs little introduction. It’s the kinda city that’s perfect to visit on a trip across Italy and one place I’m almost certain you’ll want to go back to. That’s the thing about it, there are so many incredible and best things to do in Florence that … Continue Reading
There’s no beating around the bush here, Metéora is a stunning and completely unexpected find in the typically beautiful country of Greece. Thing is though – have you every heard of Metéora? I’m sure we all have pre-conceptions about what Greece actually is, right? The crystal clear waters of the Aegean Sea, the history in Athens or … Continue Reading
And it’s pretty hard to get into, though not for the reasons you might think! (More about that further down) The northern part of Ibiza couldn’t be any more different from the south! Granted it’s still got the same beautiful scenery and amazing spots to watch the sunset but the North is quiet, serene and … Continue Reading
To be fair, our trip to Slovenia was laden with agenda and that was to discover the country’s wine! Europe as a whole produces a lot of really great wine (even in the UK though beers, ales and spirits are more our thing) and a lot of popular countries like Italy, Spain and France get … Continue Reading
