There are so many best places in Norway to visit. I mean, you’ve got the Troms region in the very north, Alesund on the west coast and lovely little places like Flåm that are nestled deep in the mountains. Plus, don’t even get me started with all the incredible fjords you should visit.  The whole … Continue Reading

These were taken earlier on when it was still blisteringly cold in Brussels. Brussels is one of my favourite places to visit and I would be lying if I said Belgian Waffles had nothing to do with it! Indeed, every time I’ve been to Brussels, the very first thing I do is eat like 1,000 … Continue Reading

Iceland is the most incredible country to explore. With stunning natural sites, erupting volcanoes and small cities like Reykjavik to visit, it’s the kind of country that you can visit year after year and never really see it all. This all makes it really important to book the very best trips in Iceland when you … Continue Reading

I’d been meaning on putting this post up for ages! 🙂 Essentially, we’d been exploring Gipuzkoa (in the Basque Country) for a couple of days and after this humongous lunch, we ventured across the river from Pasai Donibane (the town we were in) to the neighbouring town. It has been raining just before but in true Basque … Continue Reading

Italy is one of those countries that you can never really say you’ve finished seeing. After all, It’s so diverse! From the different foodie delights (I’m naming you, gelato), and beautiful cities like Rome, to the ever-impressive spots in Cinque Terre – there’s just so much to see. That being said, it can sometimes be … Continue Reading

The night after we saw the Northern Lights at Hotel Laki (which is an amazing place to stay and ideal to see the Northern Lights), we woke up bright and early for breakfast after which we promptly fell asleep again till lunchtime. In our defence, we’d been up till 6 am watching the Northern Lights … Continue Reading

This post started off on another tangent but very quickly evolved when I looked through the photos. Initially, it was gonna show you an aspect of San Sebastian I really enjoyed (the eating and drinking) but when I started looking through the photos, I realised there’s no way I could do that without showing you … Continue Reading

Perched just off the coast of mainland Greece, Kefalonia (or Cephalonia) is one of the best Greek islands to visit in the Ionian Sea. It’s a truly beautiful island that’s totally steeped in natural beauty and a shed load of history. Honestly, you’ll be spoilt for choice when looking for the best things to do … Continue Reading

I said it before and I’ll say it again, our English road trip had been a long time coming! Granted we only had 4 days (3 nights) this time but we managed to squeeze out as much of Southern England as we could within the 4 days! London bade us farewell with the most dramatic … Continue Reading

The next morning, we woke up to a day filled with fun wine-related plans – starting with a firm favourite of mine – a trip to a vineyard. There’s just something about vineyards I just love… not quite sure what that ‘something’ is but the chance to ‘taste’ the wine also adds considerably to my … Continue Reading

Paris is possibly one of the most sought-after cities to visit. There are heaps of fun things to do in Paris; from seeing the Eiffel Tower to finding some of the city’s best markets and secret spots. Paris has it all. Now, to keep your trip action-packed, I wanted to share some top places that are … Continue Reading

A first time trip to Italy is pretty exciting and totally incredible; that’s a given. Though, with so many of the best places in Italy to visit on a first trip, it can get pretty overwhelming when you’re in that planning stage.  From the gorgeous towns of Southern Italy (yes, I am naming you; Matera), … 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

A few days ago I realised that I had barely touched any of the Nordic countries on the blog and I just knew I would have to rectify that straight away! In order to rectify that I figured I’d so a mega blog post covering the countries way up North but as it turns out, the … Continue Reading
