Sunglasses are the one travel accessory I never forget to pack. The slighest hint of sunshine, and my shades are out. On average I take a flight every other month, sometimes more. In fact, when I looked back on the past 6 years of travelling, I average at 21 flights per year. This year alone, I have taken 16 individual flights. As a frequent traveller, you would...
“Oh, they’re on offer!” I exclaim, as I throw a share bag of chocolate buttons into the trolley. “They’re only a pound” I say to my husband as he looks at me disapprovingly. An additional £1 isn’t going to make a difference on our weekly shopping cost. However, for some people £1 may be their budget to feed themselves for the...
Yay, it is June. Summer is here, which also means that ‘wedding season’ is here too (though if you want to save money, you’ll get married out of season). I have been married for 3 months, so it now feels like good time to share a post wedding blog with you. There is nothing quite like a major life event, or milestone to provoke people asking those...
The way in which we live has had a huge impact on our world. You are never too far away from a headline about how human activity is ruining our earth. From pollution to global warming. We are literally destroying our world just by living. As well as killing our world, we are also killing the precious things in it. According to the International Union for Conservation...
Weddings are momentous occasions, but planning them can feel like quite a mamoth task. There are so many elements to them, and deciding on each can take weeks. Last spring, I got engaged whilst on a trip in Switzerland. It was an exciting time, and we had lots of celebrations with friends and family initially afterwards. Our celebrations quickly progressed into full...
This is a post that I have wanted to write for some time. I have touched on it in a few other posts in the past. That is, social media and its influence in our lives. I’ve written about how blogging can make you unsocial, the Korean (and now the World’s) love of technology and how to have a socal media free Christmas. However in this, I wanted to talk...
In a todays tecnhnology driven World, staying connected is of paramount importance. As a travel blogger, having access to the internet is fundamental. I use it to check and reply to emails, as well as plan different aspects to my trip. Nowadays many mobile providers offer data when roaming, but this can come at heafty price tag. When travelling in Montenengro and...
Staying safe and healthy when travelling is normally the number one concern travellers have whe preparing for a trip. Insuring belongings is often at the top of the priority list for travellers. Especially if travelling with high tech cameras and eqipment. Insurance is always good to protect you if your flight gets delayed. Accidents, illnessness and injuries can...
The World in which we live has changed greatly in the past few decades. The majority of what we do is focused online, and with the busyness of life, more people are using the internet as a resource to find goods and services. I am no different. I plan all of my trips online, and book everything from flights, and accomoodation to tours and experiences. It is...
The World is an incredible place, and over the past decade of moving around, I have been privileged to have lived in some stunning places. From the Idyllic city of Lancaster, on the edge of the Lake District in England, to New Zealand’s South Island, and now the South-East of England. The more I have travelled, the more it inspires me to get outside and see my...
