Thanks to the amazing weather in Florida all year round, there are a whole host of things to do when you visit Florida but one of the key attractions is most definitely taking a visit to The Everglades. The Everglades is a UNESCO World Heritage site and is the largest designated sub-tropical wilderness reserve on … Continue Reading

Arriving into Peru, we were the tired-est I’ve ever been on our travels! First off we started in Amsterdam, then carried on to London (transiting for a few hours in London), followed by a 12 hour flight to Lima (Peru) followed by an 8 hour overnight transit at the airport overnight, of which we planned to … Continue Reading

Today was our final full day in Tignes and we planned to make the most of every second. Drawing the curtains of our chalet, we were greeted with the best weather ever! The sky was clear, there was no wind and the slopes looked so inviting. After a hearty breakfast of eggs, meats and plenty … Continue Reading

One place I knew I really wanted to visit on this trip was Bhaktapur. I’d heard so much about it since we arrived and knew it would have to be added to our itinerary as soon as I knew about it. After leaving the historic town of Panauti, we headed straight for Bhaktapur – which … Continue Reading

Before we arrived into France’s Dordogne Valley, I’d never heard about Sarlat. This changed almost the minute we walked outside of the airport as everyone we spoke to recommended that we visit – a recommendation we took very much to heart! After leaving the beautiful sleepy French town of Martel, we made our way over … Continue Reading

We are in Dordogne and you know what that means – photo updates time! It’s our very first time visiting and now that we’re here, we honestly don’t know what took us so long to visit. Seriously, everyone (back at home) we’ve been speaking to about this area keeps going on about how beautiful the … Continue Reading

Now where was I? Oh yes, just as the sun was setting, we were off to find our new home in the Maldives – The Angsana Ihuru. Little did we know what they had in store for us… Our excitement meant that we could barely sit down in the boat as we edge close and closer … Continue Reading

Right after leaving Milan, we hit the open roads of Italy and started off our first proper drive in the rickshaw. I think it’s safe to say that this is the most terrified I was on the entire trip. Everything was so new and everyone on the roads was moving much faster than we were … 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

After all the hoops we had to jump to get to Antarctica (in our previous post), here we finally were. Antarctica! Like, this took a little while for it to sink in. I remember wanting to visit for like 10 years and then it took lots of planning to finally get to this point and … Continue Reading

Today, we got an alert saying that Hand Luggage Only (yup, the very same one you’re reading this on right now), just hit the 1 million monthly page views milestone. 1 Million!!! WOW!!! 🎉 I can’t even fully process it – mostly because I can’t picture 1 million of one thing in the same place. … Continue Reading

I’ve gotta give credit to Lloyd for finding this gem! He and Georgia pored the internet for hours before coming up with this place. He found it on Airbnb and although he went on and on about how he’d come up with a brilliant find. I was so preoccupied with so many other things that … Continue Reading

I just got a new camera and I’m chuffed to bits about it. I started to feel a bit like I’d outgrown my other camera (I’d had it for years) and I finally decided to go up a notch and get a full-frame camera. The only thing is I now have the whole ‘new camera’ … Continue Reading

A trip to Cape Verde is definitely one I recommend! I had an amazing time on this gem of an island and have put together a little guide to the amazing holiday destination. Cape Verde boasts pristine sandy beaches and amazing sand dunes – the water on the beach is the perfect temperature and the people … Continue Reading
