Fancy going through all of our past travels? You’ve come to the right place!
In 2020, on our way from Panormos in the north to Spili located in south, we took a route via Margarites and Moni Arkadi. Not only was the drive incredibly scenic, but the two destinations en route were very much worth stopping by- and we’d recommend the same to any...
Rethymno has a lot to offer- a stunning fortress, beautiful (and delicious) baked goods, incredible architecture and quaint streets covered with flowering bougainvillea... This city is certainly worth visiting, and this post talks about our favourite places- both...
Undoubtedly the most famous gorge in Crete, and most probably one of the most famous in the whole of Europe, the Samaria Gorge is a must-do for those that love hiking, and we would say all visitors to the island in general. Located in the region of Chania, the hike is...
Riad Jemaa ElfnaIn early 2020, before the pandmic engulfed the planet and temporarily put all travel plans on hold, Wally and I were very lucky to escape to Marrakesh. Only a few hours flight from London, Marrakesh was the perfect option for some winter sun, as well...
In November 2019, Wally and I spent a long weekend in Budapest, primarily to visit the Christmas markets. We had previously visited the Christmas markets in Prague (see our blog post here to read more about that trip), so decided to visit another city this time...

During our week's holiday in Palermo (read more here), we did a couple of day trips to explore a bit more of Sicily- including a day trip to Cefalu, and then slightly further away to Agrigento. In this post, we've put together our recommendations for things to do and...
In May 2021, following some easing of lockdown restrictions in England, Wally and I were lucky enough to escape London for a week in Dorset. Instead of hiring a car from near home in London, we decided to get the train out of London to Winchester, and then hire a car...
Kingston Lacy is located in Dorset and is a great place to visit for a day, especially if the weather is good. This is a country house which was home of the Bankes family for over 300 years, after their home at Corfe Castle was destroyed... click here to read more...
On our penultimate day in Dorset, we decided to make the most of the sunny weather and head to the coast, explore Lulworth Cove and then walk along the coast to Durdle Door. We then drove to Kingston Lacy (click here to read more on the latter)...Lulworth CoveMap of...
