When we booked my South African adventure, Andre recommended booking Amakhala Game Reserve and after checking their website and seeing their conservation efforts I thought it…Continue Reading “Amakhala Game Reserve”
If you happen to follow me on Instagram you will know that I recently visited South Africa for one of my longest trips away to date along the Garden Route. I honestly hadn’t thought much further than our game reserve stay which was at the beginning of our trip so to say I was pleasantly…Continue Reading “Garden Route Itinerary – Sixteen Days”
For anyone that knows me, they know that I like to travel around places that are a little less popular or well known. That’s not to say that I don’t enjoy large tourist attractions like the Colosseum or the Eiffel Tower, but exploring countries in places like Eastern Europe is more exciting for me because…Continue Reading “Roadtrip Around Lake Constance, Switzerland and Bavaria”

Located roughly 8km from Westport, Croagh Patrick…Continue Reading “Climbing Croagh Patrick: The Full Guide”

This is one of the reasons why it took me so long to venture as far as Donegal. Donegal is one of the most…Continue Reading “Two Day Donegal Itinerary”
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”
Recently I was looking for somewhere to have a nice, relaxing weekend break away. I thought, hey, I’ve never been to Denmark so why not travel to Copenhagen?! Flights are quite cheap from Ireland with Ryanair and the flight time is roughly two and a half hours – the only thing holding me back until…Continue Reading “A Weekend In Copenhagen”
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”
