After our rather amazing drive through the Icefields Parkway and exploring the beauty of Abraham Lake, we made our way back to Banff to grab our stuff from the hotel and head over to our final stop of the trip; Lake Louise. Specifically, Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise. This time, we would be staying at the … 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
On our final morning in the Jurassic Coast, after breakfast similar to the one the day before (see it here), we bade farewell to the Hix Townhouse and hit the road, heading back slowly up to London. We drove by some cute villages but decided this time not to stop – there was one place … Continue Reading
Fjord Safari Flam is one of the best things to do when visiting this region. And it really was a highlight of our trip to Flam! Norway’s fjords are famous the world over and after a trip up the mountains to see the Sognefjord from the top, we had a trip from the bottom, on the … 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
I’ll just start by answering that question with a huge spoiler alert – a roadtrip from the UK to Austria is soooooooo much fun! It isn’t necessarily the most obvious road trip route we would have thought of (in large part because we in the UK live on an island physically disconnect from mainland Europe) … Continue Reading
I love going to see stuff that most people don’t do. When in Singapore, most people head off to see the obvious shiny stuff – the Marina Bay Sands, shopping on Orchard Road, Day trips to Universal Studios and while there absolutely nowt wrong with those things, one experience I definitely recommend when in Singapore … Continue Reading
We arrived into Generalife absolutely panting after running all the way from the Alhambra. With our flights to catch in a few hours and palace entry closing in less than an hour, speed was of the essence. Thankfully, Generalife is so much smaller than the Alhambra and so after a short walk through the elaborate … Continue Reading
The next morning at the Angsana Velavaru, after our fairly relaxed day of arrival into the Maldives – I had two main things planned for the day – snorkelling (the Maldives is, as you already know, amazing for this) and indulging in the spa… actually, make that 3 things – I also planned on getting … 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
