There’s no question, a trip to England’s New Forest just isn’t complete without visiting some of its wonderful pubs! From historic spots to flower-adorned gardens, dog-friendly to family-friendly, there’s a huge range of pubs within this national park that really are a classic part of the experience here. Which means visiting at least one […]

Ah the beauty of Wales knows no bounds! Honestly, the one good thing about the pandemic is that it gave me the opportunity to fall in love with this country because, rather embarrassingly I just hadn’t explored this area until 2020 swung around. But being stranded in the UK and forced to discover more […]
One of the UK’s most remarkable parks (not to mention one of its oldest), the Brecon Beacons is a phenomenally scenic part of Wales that should absolutely be on your British bucket list! Encompassing a dramatic mountain range in South Wales, this is a rugged, ancient land that is ideal if you want to […]
Disclaimer! I’m going to be straight up from the start and say I’m not a huge fan of tours, especially to destinations like Iguazu Falls where they are not really needed. Yes that’s right, you don’t need a tour to go to Iguazu Falls! Easy to access via flight or bus, easy to sightsee […]
Looking for an amazing day in Vietnam you won’t forget in a hurry? Then visiting the Phong Nha caves in the centre of the country could be just the answer!

Boasting 2 coastlines, with stunning beaches and an array of islands, cool highlands, steamy jungles, dazzling cities and some UNESCO-listed heritage towns, Malaysia really is quite a traveller treasure trove. It seems something of a shame, therefore, that this country is so regularly left of many Southeast Asia travel itineraries, often overshadowed by the more […]
By the time I reached the tropical Perhentian Islands off Malaysia’s east coast I’d be travelling non-stop in Southeast Asia for over 2 months. And I was exhausted. I was especially exhausted of the noisy cities, hectic pollution and piles of trash. And so it was that the beautiful paradise pearls of the Perhentian […]
Cat Ba Island is one of the best places to visit in Vietnam in my opinion, but it’s also a spot many travellers miss off their itinerary in this country… and what a shame. #1 Because Cat Ba Island has a lovely national park at its heart – a great place to enjoy some […]
Before my arrival into Peru, I have to admit I’d never even heard of Huaraz, let alone considered travelling there. As such a huge country and with a tight travel timeframe, I’d already pretty much mapped out my time in Peru before my arrival into Lima in September as I fled the impending winter […]
