Most people have never even heard of La Gomera, and neither had I until earlier this year. Having stumbled across it whilst doing some travel research, the more I read, the more I knew I had to go. My boyfriend and I booked a flight straight away, and left the rest as a mystery until we […]
I’ve always dreamed of going to a beautiful secluded island where you sleep in bamboo huts meters away from the ocean. Where there’s nothing to do but lounge in hammocks all day, sip cocktails and get completely engrossed in a book. This is exactly what we did at Sangat Island Dive Resort, the only resort on […]
Shipwreck diving in Coron Bay, Philippines is world famous for a reason. It’s more spectacular and epic than you could imagine. Our time here was world’s apart from island hopping in El Nido or Boracay! After reading about the many WW2 Japanese ships that were attacked by US forces on September 24th 1944, and how you […]
After an incredible time on El Nido, our next stop was Coron Town on the island of Busuanga (also in the province of Palawan). Coron is the main town on the island for diving the world famous WW2 ship wrecks (read all about my Shipwreck diving in Coron Bay). Not to get confused, there’s also […]
Arriving in El Nido was an island dream come true. With the long journey to get there and the fact that it is still relatively untraveled, it really felt like a special kind of paradise. As I mentioned in my last El Nido post, the true beauty of this protected area is when you reach […]
Sometimes, we just want to be spoiled. We work hard, study hard, take care of our families and sometimes all we want is to be spoiled and pampered for a little bit. Some of my friends are soon heading off on a luxurious trip to Bali (their only requirements). They recently asked me for advice on the […]
My sister is getting married soon, so we set off for Koh Samui on mission ‘Wedding Resort Hunting’. Thailand is our favourite country, and we have such wonderful memories from the island, so it wasn’t a difficult decision. We made a list of top resorts to check out, booked appointments for all before heading off on our […]
When I was searching hotels for my recent stay in Mykonos, one of the first ones I discovered was San Giorgio Hotel, from the Design Hotels group. As soon as I saw the photos on their website, I booked it straight away. I just loved the authentic, bohemian decor. (And it really is just like in […]
During my recent stay in Mykonos, my sister and I had the most wonderful day (if not a little too windy) wondering through the cute town of Mykonos. The compact seaside town is filled with little, winding alleys, stylish boutique stores and cafes. It felt like we we exploring a blue and white themed make-believe village, […]
My first solo travel trip was 6 weeks spent exploring around Bali and the east coast of Australia. Airlie Beach and the Whitsunday Islands were at the top of my list. I really appreciated how there was something for everyone, whether to go diving, sailing, sky jump, party or just relax. Off the state of Queensland in […]
