Alhambra is a palace in Spain and it is truly magnificent. Being centuries-old, having its origins back in 889, it’s an amazing piece of architecture. As you can imagine, of course, it is now a UNESCO World Heritage site (and rightly so) and a source of inspiration and awe for visitors to Spain from all … Continue Reading
The last few days have been hectic but oh so fun-filled! If you’ve been on Instagram lately (@HandLuggageOnly), then you’ll have seen that we’ve been in Spain exploring Malaga. Before I run out of the door though, I just had to send a few postcards to you from Spain. From Malaga… From Ronda… From the … Continue Reading
These last few weeks have been manic! Just looking through Instagram (and our calendar), in the past couple of months, with like just a day in between (sometimes with no days in between). We’ve been on a road trip through Germany, explore 4 cities in Japan, then to New York, then Rio, then back to … Continue Reading
Remember when I said to you how you can go on Safari in Scotland? Well, the idea has been stuck in my head since then and I finally got round to going! The safari park is called Blair Drummond Safari and Adventure Park and it was such a fun-filled day. This is meant to be a photo … Continue Reading
![Vernazza in Cinque Terre, Italy - The Photo Diary! [4 of 5] (7)](jpg/cinque-terre-08514cf.jpg?fit=1600%2C1066&ssl=1)
These are the photos from our trip to Cinque Terre in Italy! Each of these 5 UNESCO World Heritage sites is so unique and so beautiful that I genuinely struggled to cram all the photos taken into one blog post (even for a photo heavy blog post, it would have been way too many photos) … Continue Reading
Bali is a truly diverse holiday destination to visit, with so many things to see. From stunning lakes and beaches to amazing views of volcanoes, Bali’s diverse scenery is rivalled only by the diversity of its people and here are some of them; along with the skills they possess: 1.) The Weaver 2.) The Food … Continue Reading
Before I headed out to Antigua, I’d heard rumours of how beautiful the beaches in Antigua are and how amazing it was for snorkelling so after a relaxing day exploring, I knew the very first activity I wanted to get up to was snorkelling! I arrived bright and early to sign up for snorkelling at … Continue Reading
These are not even the full blog posts yet! 🙂 There are photos that were meant to go on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook (I took them on my phone) but seeing as I ended up taking so many, it’s proven to be a struggle to get them all up on any of those so I figured … Continue Reading
A trip to Antigua would be incomplete without a little visit to St John’s – the capital of the island. I visited outside of the main hours most visitors on the island tend to visit – unintentionally I might add, I just happened to have rented a car and subsequently decided to make the most … Continue Reading
Hi! This is gonna be a really quick post! 🙂 If you’ve been on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook lately then you probably have a sense of what we have been getting up to in our 48-hour challenge across the Nordics with Scandic Hotels. It has been amazing! 🙂 We’ve done and seen so many amazing stuff that I … Continue Reading
So, I spent last week in France (as you can probably tell from our Instagram) and it was something of a strange week. On one side, I had a rather weird experience (absolutely unrelated to France) which I will share with you once I get round to writing about it properly but on the flip … Continue Reading
As you already from our instagram (@HandLuggageOnly), we just spent in Bratislava with friends (brilliant city by the way, so much more than I was expecting) and while there’s so much to tell you about, I just couldn’t wait to share a few pictures from Bratislava with you! I will do a proper set of blog … Continue Reading
Berlin is one of those European cities that has been defined by war. Everywhere you go, the city’s painful past is evident – from the ruins of one grand structures to the eclectic mix of houses built at different times by different generations, Berlin has truly been shaped by the wars its seen. I remember … Continue Reading
Leaving El Nido, we decided to go for a “different experience” in the Philippines. Well, not so much a “different experience“, as much as a different island. In our prosecco-induced booking haze, we kinda already knew Bohol was a great place to visit in the Philippines (as well as Siargao – which is a lot … Continue Reading
