As a travel blogger I’m so lucky that I get to visit lots of different countries but one of my favourite things is to re-visit a place that I’ve already been and loved. On my first visit I’m like a rabbit in the headlights with wide eyes and a slack jaw as I try to …

Last year I took part in a yoga retreat with Azul Fit on the island of Fuerteventura. It was a fantastic week and it left me feeling fitter, healthier, slimmer and more relaxed. I vowed to make yoga retreats a yearly ritual and I’m desperate to take another one this year. Ibiza looks like the …

Massive thanks to Jessica from The Belle Voyage for today’s post about immersing yourself into a new culture while you travel.

While there’s something to be said for crossing tourist attractions off your proverbial list, I think …
I visited Dominica last year and I feel like I haven’t shown this gorgeous little island enough love. Seriously, I can’t even begin to tell you how much I loved my time there. It’s a Caribbean island for adventurous people, what’s not to love about that!? So today I’m going to tell you about all …
