A detour to the Moroccan ski town of Ifrane led to a hike through Ifrane National Park- an incredible alpine forest which is home to troops of wild monkeys. Here's why you should include it on your road trip through Morocco. (Even if you've got a slight monkey fear, like moi). *This site uses affiliate… Continue reading Ifrane National Park • Close Encounters of the Macaque Kind
The Riad Sidrat Fes is a tranquil haven amongst the chaos of the medina, and our stay here was my favourite on our recent trip through Morocco. Not only was the traditional riad exquisitely beautiful, but the level of warmth and hospitality we received was second to none. If you're going to visit Fes, this… Continue reading The Riad Sidrat Fes • An oasis of calm in the medina
Autumn in Europe is one of the best times of year- and that's coming from a summer baby through and through. Ya know why? European summer is overrated. It's overcrowded, hot, sticky and (especially in the Mediterranean), it can be overwhelming. There, I said it. What you want to do, pals, is to head over… Continue reading Autumn in Europe • My Favourite Fall Destinations
Of all the things to do in Visby, if I'm completely honest, seeing Bob was always at the top of my list. We would leave the port and walk through a little park to get to the medieval town, and without fail a very large tabby cat with tufty ears would trot out of hiding… Continue reading The Best Things to Do in Visby • Fairytale town of Gotland
A day trip from Halifax to Peggy's Cove was the first port of call at our second port of call on our cruise around the world. I'd still say it was one of the best days of the entire four month trip, partly because of the beauty of Nova Scotia and partly thanks to the… Continue reading From Halifax to Peggy’s Cove • Beautiful Nova Scotia
Greetings, dear pals! I'm back from a world cruise! That's right, a literal cruise around the literal, actual world. It was amazing. It was intense. It was exhausting. And obviously I took my camera with me, to document the entire thing. So where did the world cruise actually go? Well, we set off from Hamburg,… Continue reading World Cruise Photo Diary
What an absolute joy it is to visit a new place and not rely solely on the internet to govern what you see and do. Or even why you go there in the first place. Hertfordshire is, it turns out, a really beautiful part of England, but I'm not writing this to persuade you to… Continue reading This is Not Your Sign to Visit Hertfordshire
One day in Tangier was the perfect start to our time in Morocco, and wandering the streets with a camera in hand is my favourite way to explore a new place. Here's my complete photo diary, along with everything we loved and everything I recommend you check out for yourself. *This site uses affiliate links,… Continue reading One Day in Tangier • A Photo Diary
I'll be completely honest. The reason we flew into Tangier was that it was the cheapest entry point to fly from London to Morocco. (It did mean flying out of Stansted, my least favourite of all the London airports, but that's another story.) 'Is Tangier worth visiting?' seemed to have been asked a thousand times… Continue reading Is Tangier Worth Visiting? • The perfect introduction to Morocco
There's a little bit of confusion on the internet, pals. And it makes sense. There are actually two Cartagena cruise ports in this big wide world. The first, Cartagena de Indias, is in Colombia. Although arguably that's actually the second Cartagena, as it's named after a city in Spain. (Colonialism and all that.) So to… Continue reading The Complete Guide to Cartagena Spain Cruise Port
