A while back, I posted about the delight of wandering the pretty mews in London – but did you know there are also mews in Edinburgh? Neither did I until I started spending more time in upmarket Stockbridge, and from there I discovered there are quite a few more dotted around, too. While the Old …
If you ask me for my favourite places I’ve been to in Scotland, I’ll reel off a list of popular haunts, but there’s one you might not have even heard of: the Isle Of May. I’ve now been to the Isle Of May twice, yet for some reason I’m only writing about it now. On …
I’ve been meaning to put together lots of London photos for a while, as my last few visits have been spent enjoying taking photos of the city. As I’ve got more into photography, too, I’ve appreciated a lot more about different parts of London, and it’s taken me to areas that I haven’t thought to …
Well folks, it’s been a while since I did a Photo Friday post! In fact, I don’t think I managed to do any last year, as I was so busy with all the regular blog posts. I have edited and uploaded far more photos of Lake Como than I used in my last blog post, …
Digital art museums appear to be gaining worldwide momentum in the form of events like the interactive Van Gogh exhibitions around Europe – but TeamLab have been at the forefront of digital art galleries for years, and Borderless was one place I really wanted to visit in Tokyo.

Our time in Zanzibar was mostly spent relaxing by a beach, but – and call me weird if you like – one thing I was really looking forward to seeing was the Zanzibari doors of Stone Town. The doors of Stone Town are intricate, interesting and beautifully carved, and while I have a penchant for …
I have so much to write about our safari honeymoon that it’s hard to know where to actually begin. I can, however, share a whole bunch of photos from the trip to give you a preview of what’s to come. It’s taken me a long time to sort them, let alone edit them – as …
Before we visited Malta, I knew virtually nothing of its capital, Valletta. One of the smallest capital cities in Europe, Valletta looks surprisingly imposing from the outside, St Paul’s Cathedral towering high above the surrounding buildings to dominate the skyline, yet once inside the city walls, it doesn’t need much time to explore. In fact, …
Surprise – I just returned from ICELAND!! Yes, after a long, long two and a half years, I finally set foot outside the UK, and I absolutely made the most of every second. If you follow me on social media, you’ll know about some of the trip already – I went with a friend who …
