There is no place I’d rather be than sipping a fanta lemon coated in blistering sunshine on a beach in Ibiza. There is something so magical about this place that seems to run through the veins of the island over the salt flats and deep into the mountains. Whilst I love a night at Ushuaïa…

Prepare for sultry Mediterranean hues, deep-dish pizzas and a rooftop with sunsets so postcard-perfect you’ll forget the beach and curl up poolside from dawn till dusk. The hotly anticipated Hoxton Poblenou, Barcelona has opened its doors ready for summer 2022 and if it isn’t on your list, you better add it now. Expect the group’s…

There was no better place to bring my journey to a close than the Czech capital. I tried trdelník for the first time, took a river cruise, danced the night away in central Europe’s largest nightclub and got to drive a hot pink motorcycle round the city. This post is short and sweet as I was…

2020 has made staycationing the new norm and to be honest, it’s something I can really get behind. Whilst this year I may not have had Italian sand between my toes, staycationing has made me appreciate what I have on my doorstep and helped the planet out a whole bunch too. Every Brit has flooded…
