After leaving the amazing ancient lost Kingdom of Petra, our next stop in Jordan would be in Wadi Rum, the desert so famous you’ve already seen it even if you hadn’t realised it at the time. So many movies have been filmed here, like Dune, The Martian, Aladdin, Prometheus and quite a few Star Wars … Continue Reading
Twas the night before Christmas…. The cat was getting drunk on mulled wine… Santa, all ready for Christmas, took a bit of time off for some festive golf… …before heading out to deliver presents! Unfortunately however, Rudolph wasn’t having any of it! So Santa had to resort to more creative ways to deliver the presents… … Continue Reading
The following morning in Kyushu, we got up bright and early, greeted by the sight of the Japanese countryside as we meandered through on the Seven Stars. Even as we got ready for breakfast, we knew we’d miss this train once we eventually got off it in Fukuoka. It was just everything we’d hoped it … Continue Reading

Now, since we’d arrived in Stuttgart, we hadn’t properly managed to check out the Christmas market. The first day we had snow-rain and had to leave within a short time of arriving in the markets (my shoes were soaked and freezing). The next day, we’d spent so long exploring the city, I was just too … Continue Reading
When you find yourself in Lake Garda, more specifically, in the Trentino region of Lake Garda, a hike to Ponale is one thing you have to do! Or at least, so we were told. As someone who would rather spend my time in Italy eating pasta than hiking, I grudgingly decided to go on this … Continue Reading
After spending a beautiful albeit cloudy day in Florence, the sun decided to finally pop its head out! With this in mind, I decided it make perfect sense to head over to one of the most colourful places in Italy; Cinque Terre. We parked the car off and hopped on the train to what was … Continue Reading
* Okay, fine – we were actually in Bordeaux for more than 24 hours but this is over the last 24 hours we had in Bordeaux before heading for the airport so that title still counts. 😁😄 After that delicious lunch, we decided to spend the rest of the evening exploring the pretty streets of … Continue Reading
