I looked around at my fellow bloggers who had mixed expressions. Some were smiling fondly at their California rolls like proud parents while others looked completely bewildered as their …
One thing a travel lover can never answer is the question that pops up all the time. ‘Where’s the best place you’ve ever been?’ I’m asked this all the time and usually refuse to answer because there are just too many options. It depends on your mood, who you’re with, your budget, the season and …
Looking for the perfect Christmas gift for a travel lover? Read on for unique and affordable gifts they’ll love… For the first time in my life I’m actually feeling pretty organised about Christmas. Lots of my presents are bought and even wrapped already and I’ve sent my Christmas list to Santa. (I know this sounds …
It’s hard to give tips about anything to do with pregnancy because every woman is so different and everyone has a different experience. So today I’m going to share what travelling while pregnant has been like for me and some tips that made it easier. This post may not apply to every pregnant woman. I’m …
It may be a few years ago now but my favourite travel experience is from my time travelling around Australia in a campervan.

Every time I think about that battered old, green campervan I get a little tingle of excitement …
pintrk(‘load’,’2612413566639′); pintrk(‘page’); pintrk(‘track’, ‘pagevisit’); How do I start a blog and get free stuff? This is a question I’m asked a lot. Actually, it’s the question I’m asked the most so it makes sense I write a blog post about it. This also means I can give a more detailed answer than I ever could …
Has it really been nearly 2 months since I posted a Weekend Reads? It’s been such a busy few months I’ve barely had time to write, never mind read! What I’ve been Writing A Blood and Earth Cookery Course in Dublin with Domestic Godless A sneaky peak at Lavazza’s gorgeous 2015 calendar with Steve McCurry …
‘What would you do if you had £500 to spend on a UK adventure?’ This is the question put to all of us by UNIQLO for their latest #ULDadventure competition. (More about the competition at the end of this post) I’m a big fan of a good old staycation and I really believe we have …
Last month I travelled to Turin in Italy for the launch of Lavazza’s latest calendar. This isn’t the kind of trip I normally take but the photos were taken by Steve McCurry and I’m a huge fan of his travel photography. I was also keen to find out more about this year’s calenadar theme, Earth Defenders. Lavazza produce a …
Thank you so much for all of your lovely comments and congratulations from Tuesday’s post. In case you missed it, yes, I’m pregnant! Despite a growing bump and five long months to get my head around this, I’m still totally in shock. I actually cannot believe I’m going to be a mum. Each kick and …
There’s no denying Ryanair has a bad reputation in the airline industry. The staff are rude, the additional fees are outrageous, they’re always late and an annoying horn sounds every time you land. You know how it goes: “Dooo do dooloooo, that’s another on time flight!” Me: “Yes it might be on time but you …
