Most of the beaches I post about here are in exotic locations like Oaxaca in Mexico or Bali, but there certainly is a charm to British beaches that I haven’t seen replicated anywhere abroad. Back in Britain, I’ve been lucky enough to always have family living by the sea; I’m half Cornish so have a […]

Britain: that little island in north Europe where tea is heralded and people sound different every twenty kilometres. Britain is certainly not without its quirks – but there’s so much more to this country. It is home to a staggering amount of history, with amazing sights throughout the country. It is also the place of thousands of famous actors and musicians, it has some unique cities, and don’t forget the tranquil British countryside. Are you ready to explore Britain?

I’ve always been a massive nerd. I used to be that kid that would stay in reading instead of going out to play, and I still am that adult that stays in reading rather than going out to play. BUT when I was a young adult I developed this love for travel, and suddenly found […]

Even though I spend a large amount of time not in the UK, I will admit that there are many places worth visiting in the country. I’m from London, one of the best cities in Europe, and it’s the most popular British destination with tourists by a long shot. But there are so many more […]

I know what you’re thinking when a trip to Wales is suggested. Mountains and castles. Strictly, you’re right – Wales is home to an amazing range of mountains, including the superstar of Snowdonia, the walker’s dream of the Brecon Beacons and the fabulously named Sugar Loaf mountain.

It’s no secret how much I love Bristol. If you have read any of my older blog posts, or follow me on Instagram, you’ll know I’m damn right obsessed with the place. Like, so obsessed it’s a little creepy and I hope Bristol doesn’t get freaked out. Bristol is just so many levels of awesome. […]

It’s no secret how much I love Bristol – I’ve been around the world (I’m repressing the urge to break into Lisa Stansfield lyrics here) and it’s still my favourite city. Yes, from travels over all six continents, Bristol still comes out number one. It might have some sentimental attachment for me, but trust me, […]

There’s something special about road tripping. Packing up the car with everything you need for a few days and hitting that open road has a real magic to it – and it’s something that made me love travelling in Australia. So much so that I road tripped around the continent for 8 months solid. But […]
