Yup! We’re up in the Arctic Circle. I am writing this post looking right outside my window at a snow-clad mountain in one of the most beautiful places (and certainly the highest place) we’ve ever visit – Tromso in Norway. Sounds like a bold claim but I’m gonna put the photos down below and you … Continue Reading
One of the most fantastic surprises of our time staying at the Hotel Eden Roc by Lake Maggiore in Switzerland was definitely spending an afternoon on Brissago Island. For starters, it was actually a genuine surprise because I’d never even heard of this island prior to arriving into Ascona… …then there was the beautiful island … Continue Reading
Greece is one heck of a delicious country. I swear, If it was a restaurant, I’d have signed up for its loyalty card, tried every single thing on the menu and probably have to be rolled out in fear of eating the whole kitchen. Honestly, there are so many tasty and some of the best … Continue Reading
I always get excited when visiting Greece! I don’t know if it’s the food, the relaxed way of life or the food that I seem to inhale as soon as I arrive… whatever the reason, it’s one of my favourite countries to explore. That being said, until recently I’d only ever visited some of the gorgeous … Continue Reading
Arriving into Mühlviertler Alm, after leaving the rather impressive Melk Abbey, was something of an eye-opener – in part because it’s not a part of Austria I knew much about; but mostly because it looks nothing like the idea of Austria I had in mind. Here you’ve got stunning rolling hills, which look even amazing … Continue Reading
Our last trip to Nimes was one of those perfect friend’s holidays. Nimes is an incredible Roman city in France and is actually one of the best preserved Roman cities in the world (its temple and amphitheatre are prime examples of this) – not quite what you’d expect from a French city right? We managed … Continue Reading
Yup, there are so many incredible and a heap of the best places in the UK to visit. So much so that you’ll be spoilt for choice. From the itty-bitty hamlets that are nestled within the Cotswolds to historic cities such as Edinburgh and York, there’s an epic amount of places and probably some unusual … Continue Reading
There’s nothing quite like a jagged, beautiful and dramatic coast! Something about it just inspires fear and awe in a strange mix. There are definitely a whole lot of beautiful places to visit in Europe but the coast, with the Atlantic ocean constantly hammering away at it, is easily one of the most dramatic places … Continue Reading
The next morning in Montgenevre, even just by the sun in the sky and the cloudless blue skies, we knew before rushing downstairs for breakfast that the ski conditions would be absolutely fantastic. (*If you missed out on the day before – check out the full post here.) Oh, and it was fantastic! Suffice to … Continue Reading
Breakfast on our final morning in the Cotswolds started (…after a nice bath) with eggs royale for myself and gggs & soldiers for Lloyd. All washed down with some freshly brewed coffee. The Royal Oak is a fairly small and intimate place (I think there are only 6 rooms in total) so you’re quite likely … Continue Reading
Oxford is a place that’s steeped in history, some world-renowned architecture and I think it has some sort of famous university there too? Okay, jokes aside, the university is incredible and even if you don’t study there, the colleges are a must-see when in Oxford. That being said, it isn’t just all about the colleges, … Continue Reading
Hey, it’s Henry here! You might remember from my last trip with the Hand Luggage Only guys to Barcelona? This time, however, I’ve ventured a little closer to home. All the way over to gorgeous Ireland! To be totally frank, I’m actually a little ashamed to say but (as a 24-year-old, Guinness loving, Irish jigging … Continue Reading
Germany, like Norway, is one of those places where the locals (pretty much across the board) love a good hike and so heading on one of the best hikes in Germany is pretty much one of the most German things you can do when you visit. And there is a good reason why! The German … Continue Reading
The last couple of weeks have been a pretty manic flurry of activity across multiple cities, as you can probably tell from our Instagram posts (all the deets are on there so I won’t rehash them on here). Even in the midst of all of this travel (there was one point where we were in … Continue Reading
