I’ve just returned from a Montenegro holiday and wow, just wow. I cannot believe how gorgeous Montenegro is but, mostly, I cannot believe what a little-known and underrated destination it is. While I was there I was based in Herceg Novi, a lovely coastal town close to the Croatian border and at the entrance to …

I’d seen photos of Mont Saint-Michel before but, if I’m honest, I didn’t know much about this incredible island in Normandy, France. I didn’t know a lot about it other than the fact that it looked like a magical town that would fit perfectly between the pages of Harry Potter novel. It appeared in my …

You’d be forgiven if you’d never heard of Miyazaki Prefecture in Japan. I did a poll on my Instagram stories and 95% of people said they didn’t know where it was and I have a sneaking suspicion that the 5% who did know about Miyazaki were the friends I told in the pub the night …

Does anyone else struggle with all their online passwords? I remember being a child and the only password I needed was the one to get into my tree den. My older brother would guard the doorway with outstretched arms as though I were an intruder in disguise as a six year old girl. ‘Secret …
Here’s my review of The East London Hotel in London. Affordable luxury at its best at the new east London hotel. This is different.
