Fancy going through all of our past travels? You’ve come to the right place!
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...
In September 2019, Wally and I spent a week or so in Sicily. A friend decided to have a thirtieth birthday weekend there, and given we've never been to Sicily before, we decided to make the most of it and fly out a few days in advance and explore the island. We hired...
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...

Bennetts Water Gardens, the Abbotsbury Swannery and the Abbotsbury Subtropical Gardens are all located not too far from each other- so you could easily visit all three sites within one day. Depending on how much time you have available, and your preferences, you could...
On the second day of our trip to Dorset, we drove to Corfe Castle and then to Studland to see Old Harry Rocks and the surrounding countryside and coast. By chance, we realised that our route to Corfe castle would take us past the Cerne Giant, so we decided to stop by...
Perhaps most famous as being the filming spot for the Hot Fuzz film, Wells is a not a very big city and is in fact England's smallest city. The city is very walkable, with a number of tourist attractions- most notably the Cathedral, but also the Bishop's Palace and...
We visited Stonehenge as part of our trip to Dorset, and for this particular part of our trip, we've put together a separate post as there is quite a lot to see and quite a few photos we'd like to share from our trip to Stonehenge...Stonehenge with the Slaughter Stone...
