With Spring on our doorstep, and with lots of annual leave to take, I decided that it was about time to take a trip to the seaside. As per my travel goals for 2018, this year I want to make a conscious effort to visit more places in the UK, which will focus on both…

Two days in Paris
After a stressful few months, we were feeling very frazzled and knew it was time to escape London for a day or two. After the excitement of Christmas and my 24th birthday had fizzled out, I was looking for something to work towards, a little break to help me plough through the long, dreary days…
My travel goals for 2018
My travel bucket list is ever growing; there’s so much of the world I want to see. Over the past two years I’ve gained a lot of stamps in my passport (much like that girl Drake refers to in ‘Hotline Bling’) and I want to keep the momentum going in 2018. At this present moment…
What 2017 has taught me
2017 was always going to be an eventful year for me. At the end of 2016 I was home from my first ever backpacking trip and I was unsure about what the next year ahead would have in store for me. Although I had a good job to come home to and was surrounded by…
A Sunday well-spent in Greenwich
As it was my turn to be in charge of Sunday activities (see my 'Staycation' blogpost for more info) I decided that my safest bet would be a trip to Greenwich. There's plenty going on, festivities would be in full swing and we awoke to glorious weather; it was going to be a good day.…

My do’s and don’t’s of Barcelona
Follow my blog with Bloglovin Barcelona is a big city and it has a lot to offer. It is the perfect in between for anyone who is unsure as to whether they want a city break or a beachy holiday as it has both (I'm pretty sure the phrase 'the best of both worlds' was…
My backpacking essentials
It's important that before you go off on a trip that you have packed all the goodies you need. There is nothing more soul destroying than scurrying off to pastures unknown only to realise that you don't have the basic tools to survive (ok survive is a little strong, but you see where I'm going…
Why I love Laos
If you're thinking of taking a trip to South East Asia then you must visit Laos. There are no ifs or buts about it (first and only song reference in this post I promise!). No doubts or uncertainties. Laos is the place for you. I should probably start by saying that Laos was not originally…
Why I chose to travel
For me, backpacking around Asia has always been a must. I've known from a young age that the life of a traveller would be perfectly suited for yours truly - from explorations to lazing in the sun, I wanted in. I'm a London girl, born and bred, and although I love the fast pace city…
