To be honest, I had no idea what to expect from the Canary Islands. I knew they are islands off the coast of Africa (near Morocco to be more precise) and that the weather is pretty great but asides those fairly obvious facts, I didn’t know what to prepare myself for. The first thing that … Continue Reading
As you already know from our previous post we’re in Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands and it’s so much more beautiful than we imagined. I was whatsapping friends back in the UK and trying to describe Fuerteventura but this Canary island has such an eclectic mix of landscapes that I could only describe it as a … Continue Reading
The Canary Islands have always been a firm favourite to visit. Perched off the coast of north-west Africa, these Spanish islands (including; Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura and Lanzarote) are just too beautiful to miss. Full disclosure, I really have to be honest, It never felt like ‘my cup of tea’ and for so many years I kind … Continue Reading
Being one of the larger of the Canary Islands, Fuerteventura is a pretty varied and special island to explore. It’s one of those islands that has a little bit of everything and such a diverse landscape that’s amazing for a holiday trip. This is exactly why I wanted to share some of my favourite and … Continue Reading
This is a very quick post! I just found these photos from our trip to Fuerteventura where we had a little challenge of trying to photograph the night sky.

Case in … Continue Reading

The landscape here is diverse, absolutely stunning (as you might have seen from this post here, this one in the mountains and this one with that clear … Continue Reading
Waking up to sunshine in the Canary Islands and knowing how cold it was when you left London truly doesn’t lose its appeal! 🙂 After our day out exploring Lobos island and sailing the Canary Island, we figured we would spend the next day exploring more of Fuerteventura, albeit on land this time. Starting with … Continue Reading
Truth be told until we arrived in Fuerteventura, I’d never even heard of, let alone thought of visiting Betancuria; terrible, I know! Even after arriving in this gorgeous village, I still struggled to pronounce the name properly (still not sure if I know how to pronounce it properly now actually but I think it’s miles … Continue Reading
One of the most surprising things about the Canary Island of Fuerteventura is without a doubt its ever-changing landscape. One minute you’re sailing through clear blue water, the next you’re running through endless sand dunes and before you know it, you’re surrounded by absolutely stunning mountains and rolling hills (very akin to the Atlas mountains … Continue Reading
