I slept very well on Saturday night in lovely Bristol. Between the amazing meal from the night before and the brilliant hotel, I pretty much conked out as soon as I hit the hotel room. There’s just something fantastic about getting a good night’s sleep that’s irreplaceable. Sunday morning had arrived and that meant returning … Continue Reading
So it turns out, Hamburg is quite the city to be in, especially if you’re into music festivals. The best part of a festival in the city is that you can eat your cake and have it – party all weekend but still get to go home to your bed at 5am, have hot showers, … Continue Reading
A weekend trip to the best places in the Cotswolds is something that almost everyone needs to experience in the UK – doesn’t matter if you call the UK home or if you’re just visiting, you just have to visit. This beautiful part of England is absolutely gorgeous (a word I used a lot over … Continue Reading
I’ve gotta give credit to Lloyd for finding this gem! He and Georgia pored the internet for hours before coming up with this place. He found it on Airbnb and although he went on and on about how he’d come up with a brilliant find. I was so preoccupied with so many other things that … Continue Reading
The first time I saw pictures of Pena Palace in Sintra (granted, this was quite a while back), I kinda didn’t believe it was a real place.

The next morning, kinda fuelled by our missed sun rise opportunity in Palpa, we decided to see the sunrise over the Himalayas in Pokhara. And so, alarms set for 4am, off we set in search of that sun rise. I can’t tell you how hard getting up for that was. 🙂 😀 There’s a reason … Continue Reading
Waking up bright and early after yesterday’s adventure and headed straight for breakfast before our visit to the Shirayama-Hime Shrine to begin our Misogi water purification ritual. As we strolled up to the shrine in Hakusan City, it dawned on me how special our Misogi experience was going to be. I’d never experienced any kind … Continue Reading
Disclaimer: This trip to Calico was another impromptu stop on the trip (albeit a rather nice one)! On the drive to Hollywood after 3 days in Las Vegas (which was so much fun but more of that in another post soon), my friends and I figure we might as well break up the journey with a stop … Continue Reading
