When planning a travel itinerary that includes a week at a music festival, it’s a good idea to make the next destination a place for rest and recovery. Which is exactly why we booked a couple of nights in the peaceful town of Bled, in the mountains of Slovenia. That, and because it’d been on… Continue reading Lake Bled

Sziget
Budapest- One of the best experiences to have whilst traveling is camping for a week at a music festival. It’s not glamorous, in no way, but its worth it. Sziget had been on my list of music festivals to go to for quite a while & finally I had my opportunity to go. A rather… Continue reading Sziget
Poland
Warsaw- The first leg of the long journey home started by leaving London for Poland.

Fortunately for the first 3… Continue reading Poland

We landed in Tromso in the evening but decided the negative temps and darkness wasn’t… Continue reading Northern Lights Chasing in Norway
18 Months in London
February 26th 2019 marked 18 months living in London. Only 6 more months left until the UK Government kicks me out. 6 months left to cram in as much fun and experiences as possible. I wouldn’t have made it this far if it weren’t for the amazing and motivating people I’ve met along the way,… Continue reading 18 Months in London

A Winter Wonderland in Salzburg
Finally getting posting again for my 2019 adventures in Europe. I’ve had a lot going on during the start of this new year so I’ve fallen behind on posting about my trips. 2019 marks my final year living in the UK so I’m hoping to hit up as many places as possible in the time… Continue reading A Winter Wonderland in Salzburg
Christmas in Belgium
This was my last chance for a winter European Christmas, so this year I chose to spend it in Belgium. Another country to check off the list. I was lucky enough to have a friend accompany me for this trip. We were up early, after a long, tiring 7 days at work, to head to… Continue reading Christmas in Belgium
