In 2019 I’ve decided to try something new and set myself a monthly challenge for every month of the year. I’m one of those people who wants to do everything and this is my way of doing ALL THE THINGS but focusing on one thing at a time rather than jumping in all guns blazing …
I wasn’t going to write this post because, like every year I’ve ever written a ‘highlights from my year’ kind of post, I’ve initially thought I didn’t have enough interesting stuff to put in it! It’s funny (and also very telling about where my priorities are right now!) but when I think about my year …
It’s day 5 of Podmas and the prompt for today is: ‘I am ….. because …..’ I listened to Lucy’s answer to this in her podcast and she chose to go for, ‘I am vegan because….’ I found this quite a hard prompt because I don’t feel like I put labels on myself …

Earlier this year we took our second Mark Warner holiday and we loved our second just as much as the first. Our first was a winter holiday to Tignes and our second was a summer holiday to Turkey. There were a lot of similarities between the holidays, with the obvious exception of swapping snow for …
First of all, I feel the need to apologise to my friends and family; since returning from Phokaia Beach Resort in Turkey with Mark Warner Holidays, I have not stopped raving about it. My friends, my family, my neighbours, the lady who works in the corner shop, even my postman has heard all about it …
I sent this email out to my newsletter list last week but I thought I’d share it here too for those of you who don’t do emails/have been snowed under with GDPR emails they haven’t been able to wade through and actually read anything! The past 8 weeks have been a bit crazy. Some days …

It includes staying in two different hotels/resorts and has a really nice range of activities for the whole family. Here’s my Dubai …
This is what we all want really? Isn’t it? For our lives to be happy, our bodies to be healthy, our minds to be organised and to generally be more efficient so you can finally get through that to-do list that’s longer than your leg! And then maybe even have a little time to relax. …
2017. What a year. 22 flights. Approximately 20 trips. Lots of staycations. Lots of glamping. Lots of laughs. Lots of good food with good friends and long evenings under the stars. But most of all…lots of memories. This is my favourite thing about travelling, the memories you make and treasure for a lifetime. For me, …
The one thing I forget about every year when winter comes around is just how dark it is most of the day! It’s like it totally catches me by surprise yet it’s the same feeling every year. This year more than anything I want to rent one of these big, gorgeous luxury beach homes and have …

This post was sponsored by Yogi Tea Hands up if you start each morning with a cup of tea? Yes, we Brits love our tea and I can’t imagine starting the day any other way. There’s something gorgeously comforting about holding a hot mug between your hands and inhaling the sweet or spicy or …
One of my favourite bloggers is Love Taza and she writes a feature called Little Letters where she basically writes little letters to anyone and anything she has a little message for. It’s a simple idea and doesn’t sound that interesting but it’s one of my favourite features on her blog so I thought I’d …

I’ve got a good one for you today, guys! As you probably already know through reading this blog, Thailand is one of my favourite countries in the world. Thailand has it all, it’s got the gorgeous beaches, beautiful weather, lovely people, delicious food (hello Thai red curry!), cultural attractions, outdoor activities and amazing hotels. Seriously, …
Cheap family travel. Now there are three words you don’t find together very often. I remember the days when I could have a weekend away for under £100. I’d book a last minute flight and stay in a grimy hostel, get all my meals from a street food vendor and drink nothing but cheap beer …
You know you’ve been busy when you’re almost a week late announcing it was your birthday on your blog! I have been busy but in the very best ways possible. Last Saturday was a very special day for me for two reasons. Firstly, I watched one of my very best friends get married and it …
When people ask me what my favourite destination is (and as a travel blogger I’m asked this a lot!) my automatic response is always Thailand. I spent two months travelling around Thailand while I was backpacking and even after all that time I still didn’t want to leave. It’s an old cliché but Thailand really …
Hang on a minute. You hadn’t heard? Yep, slippers have suddenly become cool. Slippers are no longer the unwanted Christmas gift you get every year from your nan.
