Valentines day is a great excuse to treat your loved ones, whether that's your other half, your family, girlfriends or simply yourself. I've always been one to go over the top on the day of love, single or in a relationship. Back when Ollie and I...

I hadn't planned on doing another blog post on Vienna but my recent trip to Paris really inspired me to put this one up. I absolutely adored Vienna, dare I say it, even more than Paris. I hadn't expected to fall in love with it as much as I did...

Those of you who have read my last few posts will know that I extended my Christmas break for a week in the South West. I had wanted to go to North Devon the whole trip but the fog that week was...

And just like that Christmas and New Year came to an end. Thankfully I have extended my stay in Devon (home) till the end of the week for a family celebration this weekend. It has been the best excuse to spend some extra time with everyone...

Happy New Year! I hope you all had the chance to ring in 2017 with the ones you love. Ollie and I spent the evening at the Lighter Inn in Topsham with family, I've celebrated so many New Years in that pub and have such fond memories...

The Viennese are famous for their cafe culture, sipping their coffee and reading the paper with no inclination to leave before the sun goes down. And so as they say ‘when in Rome’ (or Vienna) we spent most of our first day eating our...

More then ever over the last few years my family and I have been savouring the time we spend together over the Christmas break. While my brother and I were at school and university we would take full advantage of those month long holidays...

St James Park is no secret. It's nestled in between some of London’s most iconic buildings and attracts millions of tourists, and Londoner’s alike each year. In my opinion the best time to visit is now, the autumn leaves are still bursting with...

For our last day in the Cotswolds we certainly saved the best till last. Castle Combe's old English charm of an age gone by made it my favourite by far. It's wonderfully well kept, and it looks like Jane Austen could step out of a door...

The Victoria & Albert Museum takes me back to my first year at University studying a Foundation Degree in Art and Design at Central St Martins. I would spend hours wondering the vast rooms and corridors, filling sketchbooks...

Day three in the Cotswolds was spent in Stow-on-the-Wold and Naunton, every village name in the Cotswolds seems to come straight out of the Wind-in-the-willows story book. It was a beautiful crisp, sunny autumn day and all we wanted to do was...

With our first full day of exploring the Cotswolds ahead of us, Ollie and I were ready to head out quite early. Apparently an evening spent in a spa is the key to a good nights sleep, who knew?! Bibury was about an hours drive north-east...

I have been wanting to visit the Cotswold ever since I saw the film 'The Holiday' back in 2006, it's one of my favourite movies and although it was filmed in Surrey, Iris's cottage was based off one from the Cotswolds...

Its official, summer is over. Although I have to say I'm welcoming Autumn with open arms, every change of season makes me optimistic for what's coming next. Luckily, last weekend we had what seemed like the last few days of summer with an...

Putsborough Sands feels like home. It’s my favourite beach in the UK and holds so many memories, predominantly camping as a late teen. Living in London I have times of pining over the fresh air in the South West, long beach walks and a dog...

I love wedding season! Partly because most of my friendship group aren't married yet and so every time I get invited to one its a great excuse to buy a pretty dress and dance the night away. Not that I need an excuse to buy pretty dresses...

Most of our days in Mykonos were spent out on the beach until the sun was nearly setting. We didn't make much of a point of glaming up for an evening out like we usually do on holiday. Mykonos is a very relaxed island and that follows through...

As I mentioned in the last post, we fell in love with Kiki's beach and couldn't wait to return. We were amazed when we came over the top of the hill the next day and saw the beach empty yet again...

Ollie is always on the look out for adventure, he’s happiest camping, hiking and doing any other activity involving the great outdoors. This day in Mykonos was a typical Ollie planned day! As soon as we landed he wanted to hire a quad bike...

We planned most of our trips in Mykonos to bring us back to the town at the end of the day. It certainly came alive after the sun went down. In Greece no one really eats until around 10pm! But we would arrive early to watch the sunset...
