This is a very quick post! I just found these photos from our trip to Fuerteventura where we had a little challenge of trying to photograph the night sky. Seeing as I’d already done Northern Lights photography a couple of times, I was pretty sure this was gonna be a walk in the park. Surely … 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
By the time we arrived in Issigeac, we realised (and happily accepted) that France’s Dordogne Valley is filled with some of the most picturesque villages, cities, and towns in the country.

If there’s anything I learnt from our Italian rickshaw adventure, it was definitely the … Continue Reading
