The next morning in Kyushu, we woke up bright and early (nothing quite like jet lag to help you get an early start on your day) to breakfast at our Ryokan in Beppu. Breakfast if a full-on affair with options to go for a full Japanese breakfast affair or the more Western option (egg, bacon…etc). … Continue Reading
We arrived late in the evening in Milan for our trip across Italy. Thankfully, we didn’t have much planned for the first evening asides meeting the organisers of the rickshaw tour and other participants over drinks and nibbles so the evening went by in a rather relaxed fashion… (prosecco will do that to you). The … Continue Reading
There are so many amazing things to see in the Faroe Islands. I mean, where do you start. It’s a tiny archipelago that packs a hefty punch in experiences for us travellers. From a whole heap of waterfalls, more sheep than people and an incredible lake that sits on the edge of a cliff, the … Continue Reading
This is one we’d been looking forward to long before catching the flight from London to Miami. The day started off with a rather nice jaunt around the Florida Keys swiftly followed by what was the longest drive we had on our road trip – an almost 9 hours drive all the way to Orlando. … Continue Reading
Last time we were in New York, I wasn’t able to get round to the Statue of Liberty. After all, visiting Lady Liberty is easily one of the best things to do in New York for sure. The time before that I saw it from a distance. This time, armed with our NYC Go passes, … 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
Chitwan (in Nepal) is absolutely scorching hot! Like we’re talking high 30sC which hits mid-40s thanks to the humidity! Oh, that humidity is one of the fiercest we’ve ever encountered on our travels – almost impressively so! Chitwan National Park is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site and home to the famed one-horned rhino (officially … Continue Reading
For the first time since we arrived in Vancouver (on this trip, anyway), we decided to tear ourselves away from the wonderful breakfast at the Shangri La and head into town for breakfast. There was a place in town everyone kept raving about and my gluttony was far too intrigued to not pop in and … Continue Reading
For the longest time, I’d always wanted to fully explore the Highlands of Scotland! Like not just a quick drive-by or popping in for a few hours but actually taking time to explore it slowly, drive through it, stop off for tea and lunch in little villages, gorge on all the delicious seafood… …I wanted … Continue Reading
On our very first visit to Nimes, there was one place I’d really wanted to see but considering how you’d need to have a car (or go on a bus journey which was rumoured to be over 1 hour long) and we’d showed up with no plans on getting a car, I’d just decided that … Continue Reading
