The Canary Islands are a totally stunning archipelago that’s so beautiful to visit. Interestingly, it’s a part of Spain and actually closer to Morocco, which makes for a sun-soaked climate for a great holiday. Though it’s not just the sun that makes the Canary Islands so special, there’s actually a Shed load of natural beauty … Continue Reading
As you can probably already tell from our Instagram and Twitter! đ We’ve also done some of the solid staple stuff to do in Valencia of course and I have so much to tell you but as per usual, I have very little time to do so right now as I need to leave the … Continue Reading
It’s Spanish tapas… not as you know it! From the moment I first heard about Sa Brisa in Ibiza (or was it when I first saw photos of it…?), I knew I had to check this out at some point in between having what turned out to be a rather lazy day at the Giri for my birthday, I mustered … Continue Reading
One of the biggest things I learnt this past weekend visiting Gipuzkoa is that the Basque language is very different from Spanish (or indeed French). I’d been to Spain quite a few times in the past and so I assumed that I would be able to throw around all the Spanish phrases I’d learned (which … Continue Reading

I’d been meaning on putting this post up for ages! đ Essentially, we’d been exploring Gipuzkoa (in the Basque Country) for a couple of days and after this humongous lunch, we ventured across the river from Pasai Donibane (the town we were in) to the neighbouring town. It has been raining just before but in true Basque … Continue Reading
And it’s pretty hard to get into, though not for the reasons you might think! (More about that further down) The northern part of Ibiza couldn’t be any more different from the south! Granted it’s still got the same beautiful scenery and amazing spots to watch the sunset but the North is quiet, serene and … Continue Reading
When we went rowing around Menorca, I remember one of the guys saying something about a hidden club in the caves and the idea of that just seemed so ridiculous (and so âAlibaba and the 40 thievesâ-esque) that I thought it was just some kind of urban legend/fable and dismissed it entirely.
