Hey there, You may have noticed a reduced rate of blog posts lately and for that I apologise. In the past few weeks, I’ve been at the end of my degree at Cambridge Uni and it’s pretty much eaten up every bit of free time I had. Now, that Uni days are finally over expect a … Continue Reading

We had such grand plans for lunch in Calgary. We had recommendations from Instagram, we had locals recommend stuff to us and even did some research in advance. Leaving lunch as late as we did, however, threw all of those plans out of the window as we hot-footed it to what was one of the … Continue Reading

First things first, get yourself down to Antigua! HOW TO GET THERE Once you’re in Antigua, head on down to Stingray city. It’s fairly popular, in fact, I think it’s the first thing I saw at immigration. You’ll need a taxi to get here unless you happen to be based in Seaton Village. Or if … Continue Reading

On our final day at the Dusit Thani Maldives, we decided to make the most of the infinity pool and so we got up bright and early! Had breakfast and headed down to the pool. The thing is, the snorkelling here is so great that the infinity pool had kinda been overlooked from our end … Continue Reading

After getting to Argentina (which you can read here), we’re finally off sailing the Drake Passage to Antarctica. Truth be told, it’s part of the trip that we were the most anxious about. Especially as this crossing can take up to 48 hours. I’ll explain why. Before that, just to quickly recap, so far we’d … Continue Reading

Many many summers ago, I was sat at my desk on a trading floor in an Investment Bank in London, watching an intense game at Wimbledon out of the corner of my eye. It was a big match so most of the floor had stopped to watch the match (I was still fairly new to … Continue Reading

Before I even get started, I’d just like to say – Croatia is one of the most beautiful countries we’ve had the pleasure of visiting this year. Morning drives (which usually means a quick nap for me – I’m a sucker for naps when someone else is driving) were so different here as your eyes … Continue Reading

Visiting Pompeii was perhaps one of the most rewarding yet one of the most stressful last-minute decisions I’ve ever made travelling. I’d really wanted to visit Pompeii for quite a while and the road trip seemed like the perfect opportunity to do so however due to the fact that we’d arrive in The Amalfi coast … Continue Reading

Making our way over from KölnTriangle to the city centre, we decided to pop into the fairgrounds for some more toffee apples (anyone who’s ever eaten a soggy supermarket toffee apple) will understand why we (but especially Lloyd) is obsessed with the stuff. We got a couple to go and walked over the bridge in … Continue Reading

Morocco is one of the more memorable places I’ve had the pleasure of visiting and particularly so is the city of Marrakesh! I’m not entirely sure what it is about it that makes it so exciting – perhaps it’s the raw unpretentiousness of it all, the Arabic heritage, the hustle and bustle of people going about … Continue Reading

Leaving those adorable beavers behind, our next stop in Quebec was hard to pronounce (at least, in my experience 😄) Outaouais. More specifically, in Outaouais we stayed in Gatineau, a city right next to Canada’s capital city of Ottawa (like literally across the river – you can see the Parliament of Canada from here!) *Took … Continue Reading

Our second day in Yorkshire begun the way every good morning in England should – with a full English breakfast complete with all the works. Fed and ready to explore even more of this beautiful part of England, we hot-footed it from our lodge at the Ravenshall Hotel over to nearby Robin Hood Bay. Now, … Continue Reading

Budapest is one of the largest cities in Europe and one steeped in history and culture! I was looking forward to visiting long before we’d even booked tickets to go though I wasn’t expecting to be in awe of the city as much as I was upon arrival. First things first, things in Budapest are … Continue Reading

We’re heading to Italy again and are looking forward to an actual warm holiday! As it turns out, we’ve been on quite a few icy trips so far this year (at least 4 of the countries we’ve visited so far had snow on the ground) so it’s a welcome change to try out a sunny … Continue Reading
