When I decided to book a trip to Copenhagen recently I couldn’t help but plan a day trip to Malmö to see what Sweden was like. Much like when I visited Tallinn and took a day trip to Helsinki, I wanted to visit another country on this trip also and really feel like I made…Continue Reading “A Day In Malmö”
Washington D.C isn’t really somewhere I ever thought about visiting too much. I’ve been to America quite a few times before and D.C was never too high on my list. But as fate would have it my aunt has lived in Virginia for many years and it was about time that I set off on…Continue Reading “24 Hours In Washington D.C”
My sister and I had wanted to visit Krakow for some time, so we decided this year instead of birthday presents we would just pay for our flights to go. Initially we wanted to visit for the Christmas markets but with our birthdays both being in March it felt too hard to wait that long!…Continue Reading “Discovering Krakow”
Although I was in Athens for longer than 24 hours (3.5 days to be exact!) I was working for two of the days and the entirety of the last day was spent in the airport for our flight home – so the only day we really had to play around with was Sunday. Since I…Continue Reading “24 Hours In Athens”
Tallinn, Estonia is definitely an under rated city in Europe. Having not known many people who have gone there (only one person to be honest!) we blindly made a decision to go – and I’m so happy we did! I will pull no punches and say that there isn’t a huge amount of things to…Continue Reading “Discovering Tallinn Old Town”
Have you ever seen the film Eurotrip? The film from 2004 documents a group of teenagers travelling across Europe where they end up in Bratislava. This is the only time I was ever really exposed to Bratislava on TV and let me tell you – it is not a good depiction of how amazing the…Continue Reading “24 Hours In Bratislava”
When you hear the words Stairway to Heaven immediately Led Zepplin comes to mind. The Cuilcagh Legnabrocky (say that 3 times fast!) trail in the Cuilcagh Mountains in Fermanagh has also been given the nickname ‘Stairway to Heaven’ and for a very good reason. The Cuilagh Mountains which lay on the border of Cavan and…Continue Reading “The Stairway To Heaven”
There is so much to do in Lisbon it might not occur to you to take a day trip from there. But if you have an extra day to spare, I would highly recommend taking time out to visit the wonder that is Sintra. Sintra is a resort town at a foothill of the Sintra…Continue Reading “A Day In Sintra”
I said I was going to explore more of Ireland this Summer, and since I am currently living in Dublin what better place to start?! Over the last few weekends (and parts of last year too) I have made it my business to explore this county beyond Grafton Street and its surroundings. The city has…Continue Reading “Eight Walks To Do In Dublin”
Have you ever visited somewhere and you just weren’t that sure about it? That’s how I felt after my short stay in Dubrovnik. Admittedly I spent less than 48 hours in Dubrovnik, so there is definitely a lot for me to still see and do there. Nevertheless, my short visited has led me to have quite…Continue Reading “48 Hours In Dubrovnik”
