Croeso (Welsh for welcome) to my post all about Wales. Particularly West Wales, but I will try and name a few important places to visit while in Wales. I have had many experiences of visiting multiple places in Wales. Actually, I must admit I have previously lived in Wales, but I still go back now … Continue Reading
Welcome to my home! Found these photos I took back at home in Wales and thought I’d share it. Okay a bit of context, we live in a converted farmhouse back in Wales (unless of course when I’m in London) – which is the reason why they’re so many farm animals around. Come and take a walk with … Continue Reading

Georgia is a fellow Londoner, talented graphic artist, photographer extraordinaire and the Mother of Dragons! Okay, that last one might not be quite true but she is the … Continue Reading
This is one of the things I’ve missed about living in the UK. We spent a brilliant afternoon doing nothing in particular on the beach and taking in the views across the UK’s coastline. I love faffing around on lazy days like this (aren’t they just the best?!) especially so when the weather’s so nice … Continue Reading
Come take a journey with me to find out where the last dragon lay… This day was one of those days that was filled with unexpected delights!

There is much diversity across the UK, with towering glacial valleys, historic coves and almost tropical environments. That being said, with some many of the best natural sights in the UK to visit, it can actually hard to just pinpoint a mere few for a trip. This is one of the reasons why I wanted … Continue Reading
The pride of Britain lies within its countryside and there are fewer places in the UK to get a truly authentic experience of British life than in its villages. This is exactly why I wanted to share some of the best places to go in the UK that aren’t just the obvious spots. Yes, we’ve … Continue Reading
Wales is an incredible country to explore, with some of the prettiest places dotted all around the country. It really is a gem of a place, with so many stunning places to see. That being said, it can be tough to whittle down just a few on your trip across the country. Especially when it … Continue Reading
There’s so much more to the UK than London. Yes, London is an amazing city and all that but the UK has so many different beautiful and exciting cities that most people miss out on thanks to buzzing bright lights of London. I have lived all across the UK and experienced life in different parts … Continue Reading
Okay, totally biased but I love Wales! Being Welsh, you couldn’t expect anything else really. Though, pushing my bias aside, there are so many beautiful and best things to do in Wales that really make it a stunning country to explore. For a relatively small country, we pack a hefty punch in gorgeous places to … Continue Reading
Wales, where do I start? Honestly, for a relatively small country, it packs a mighty big punch when it comes to epic things to do in Wales. With close to 1,000 miles of coastline, cities like Cardiff, the stunning areas of west Wales and breathtaking castles that dot its landscape. Wales is a totally essential … Continue Reading
Us Brits are proud of our not-so-little island! From the beauty of the Cotswolds, the magnificence of Edinburgh to the quaint charm of Tenby in stunning Wales, there are loads of spots to explore. This is no more true when looking at places to visit on a British road trip. Honestly, there are so many … Continue Reading
I have a love affair with Wales. Wales as a whole has been one of my favourite places in the UK and it was home for quite some time so I may be biased here but the Welsh are some of the kindest and warmest people you’ll meet. …And then there’s that dramatic coastline, too! … Continue Reading
Sometimes it’s easy to forget what’s right on our doorstep – especially when there are so many beautiful and world-renowned historic sites that are only a stone’s throw away! We’re fortunate that we have so many UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland… from the unique City of Bath, … Continue Reading
