(Somewhat) Boujee and Accessible Backpacking
Share this… Facebook Pinterest Twitter And we’re off, after over a year of planning, nearly 8 years of talking about it, and spending our entire life’s savings, we finally boarded a one-way flight (note: we found our flights through Skyscanner, check the current prices here) all the way to Singapore. (Side note, you can watch …
Share this… Facebook Pinterest Twitter If you’ve not realised by now (where have you been?), we’re jetting off to the other side of the world next month (31st August) on a one-way flight. Like any 20-something year old Brit, we’ve had the realisation that if we’re going to be miserable and penniless, we mayswell be …
Share this… Facebook Pinterest Twitter You might already know Nathan’s been battling hip pain for months, an unwelcome travel companion. Then came New York, where the pain went from annoying to unbearable. Fun fact: it nearly ruined his dream proposal because he couldn’t even bend properly, despite practicing on one knee for weeks! Talk about …
Share this… Facebook Pinterest Twitter What are you supposed to say when you get a spontaneous text about £50 return flights to Geneva? Yes, obviously. A combo of chocolate, cheese, lakeside walks, and the promise of Eurovision 2025 (albeit, the wrong city)—it was always going to be a fun one. That said, most travel blogs …
Share this… Facebook Pinterest Twitter Our first time in New York Christmas Itinerary New York, New York, it’s a hell of a town! Those words have echoed in my mind ever since I first saw the city that never sleeps on my TV. As a self-declared Yulephile (definition: someone who loves Christmas), I dreamt of …
Share this… Facebook Pinterest Twitter Picture stunning beaches, perfect weather, delicious food, a world-famous zoo, and an overall laid-back vibe. Of course, I must be talking about San Diego! After my last trip, I was so lucky to head back to one of my favourite work events in one of my favourite places. However, this …
Share this… Facebook Pinterest Twitter It’s only taken me a month to write this blog, but it’s been a month of covid, then a cold, then busy weekends with weddings, dog shows, Swiftogeddon, and more so please forgive me… However, I’m still basking in the afterglow from possibly the best weekend of my life. And …
Share this… Facebook Pinterest Twitter “I can’t sleep ’cause what if I dream of going back to San Diego” I absolutely know what Blink-182 were talking about… Ever since I visited San Diego a year ago, I’ve become obsessed. I’d only visited California once before for Disneyland (of course) but I’ve always wanted to go …
I was doing my weekly Sunday morning scroll when I spotted that the Titanic Spa in Huddersfield had a 2-for-1 offer on including the spa facilities, lunch, dinner, overnight stay, and breakfast. One definitely not to be missed.
The UK’s first eco spa, the Titanic Spa prides itself on being a pioneer of sustainability, with an energy-efficient building, their own water source and organic and locally sourced food. As a lover and regular goer of spas, many of my friends have recommended that I go along, so we made sure to get on the phone asap and book the deal.
The one and only time I have ever kept a secret. Surprisingly, I only accidentally told Nathan once that I’d booked a secret weekend getaway to Copenhagen for his birthday (which I don’t think he remembered, or if he did, he’s very good at acting).
When I first made the decision to go away for his birthday, I was struck with decision paralysis. Belgium, where he used to live? Italy, which had always been a dream? Amsterdam, after a failed attempt scuppered by lockdown, or Billund, to commemorate our meeting at the Lego store.
