Holiday Travels – 24 Hours in Florence

Following our trip to beautiful Montepulciano in Tuscany last summer, we headed to Florence for a whistle-stop tour before coming back to Blighty. We arrived around lunchtime and flew back the following afternoon, so we had a limited time available. We focused on a couple of things we really wanted to do, and built some time in […]

Holiday Travels – 48 Hours in Bologna

It’s about that time of year when we start thinking about where to spend our summer holiday. Italy is always a fantastic choice and last summer (I know, I’m ashamed it’s taken me so long to write about it!), the city of Bologna was one of our destinations. Hands down Bologna is now one of […]

Holiday Travels – Thailand: Bangkok (Part 1)

So despite getting back from Thailand three weeks ago, I’ve only just sat down to write this post – oh the shame! Obviously catching up with work and the lead-up to Christmas was a busy time, so I’ll let myself off 🙂 Anyway, Thailand was magnificent, incredible and just a joy to explore. We spent […]

Holiday Travels – Budapest

Last week I had the pleasure of going to Budapest on a joint stag and hen do of our friends (the ‘Sten Do’ as we lovingly nicknamed it) for five days. It was great fun and we did a variety of activities – not just the traditional drinking kind. As there was a large group […]

Holiday Travels – Dittisham, Devon, England

Having taken rather a long hiatus from blogging due to dreary marketing assignments, I finally have some spare time to write again, yippee! I thought I would kick off with my most recent holiday to Dittisham, a delightful village by the River Dart in South Devon. I used to come here with my family for […]

Holiday Travels – Lisbon, Portugal

A rather belated Part II of my Portugal holiday post, see here for Part I: Holiday Travels, Sintra. After a delightful few days in Sintra, we took our hire car back to Lisbon Airport and took an Uber into Lisbon. Sidenote: Ubers in Lisbon are super cheap, and the drivers are so friendly and love […]

Holiday Travels – Sintra, Portugal

I have taken rather a long hiatus from writing blog posts due to work and studying, so I thought it would be good to kick off with a good ol’ holiday blog post. Sit down and make a cup of tea, this is quite a long one! Three weeks ago we were in Sintra, which […]

Holiday Travels – Berlin

At the beginning of December I took a lovely post-birthday, four-day trip to Berlin, and it was amazing. Such a fascinating and vibrant city, with so much to see and do, and particularly lovely before Christmas. Luke and I found a good flight + hotel deal on lastminute.com and stayed in the Park Inn by Radisson […]

Holiday Travels – Prague

In a similar vein to my last post, Holiday Travels – Krakow, this is really part 2 of that trip, but I thought I would break it up a bit as it was super looong. So, first things first, after our sleeper train journey from Krakow, we arrived bleary eyed in Prague and got a […]
