Exploring Kensington London

October 25, 2018

London is one of my favourite cities, I love exploring all the different areas. Back in the Summer I took a walk through Shoreditch, but I’ve decided to switch East for West. Kensington isn’t an area of London that I am familiar with, so I decided to go and explore. Home to many ...

Rome – A 3 Day Adventure

October 18, 2018

At the beginning of the month myself and Jesse went away for a 3 day mini holiday to Rome, Italy. It was our first holiday away from Clem. We actually booked it last Christmas as Jesse gave me a voucher from Buyagift. The voucher was originally for a 2 night stay in the UK. But we ...

Planning for a holiday abroad

July 26, 2018

It’s the summer holidays and it seems like we are the only ones not going away. However at the end of the summer Jesse has a week off and we had talked about booking something last-minute. So I’ve been having a sneaky look to see if I can find any good deals online. Whenever I start ...

Travel Bucket List for 2018

January 11, 2018

January is probably my least favourite month of the whole year. The weather isn’t great, it’s been grey and cold here for days now. I am definitely dreaming of warmer and sunnier times. For Christmas I was given a voucher for a 2 night break, so at the moment we are trying to work ...

Half-term fun – Boo at the zoo

October 24, 2017

It’s half-term for the majority of the country – in fact we are on week two! It’s a time when you need to keep the kids entertained all the time. I know you can’t always rely on good weather, but if you are near London here’s a good idea. We were very kindly invited by Attraction Tix to ...

Summer Holiday Time

August 17, 2017

We decided fairly early in the year that we wanted to have a summer holiday this year. In the past we have done a package holiday with someone like Thomson etc… but this time we wanted something a little different. We didn’t have many requirements, other than somewhere warm, with a ...

Carcassonne – UNESCO World Heritage Site

July 28, 2017

Whilst we were on holiday in France we decided to visit the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Carcassonne. Now I will fully admit that the only reason we went here is that Jesse is a board game geek. There is a game called Carcassonne, and after going in almost every shop, he actually managed to ...

Stuck in the Terminal

June 27, 2017

Ahh holiday time. The moment when you can relax and not worry about anything. At least that’s how it should be. You wake up super early for the early flight you are booked onto. Drive to the airport, park the car, head towards the terminal. Breeze through check-in and baggage drop off. ...
