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”
Everyone loves a good, relaxing weekend – and my last weekend was just that. I had the pleasure of spending one night in Monart, a ‘destination spa’ down in Wexford. Nestled away at the edge of Enniscorthy this five-star hotel is a little slice of paradise. I spent a Friday night here recently as a…Continue Reading “A Night at Monart Destination Spa”
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”
As spoken about previously, my first experience of Spain wasn’t exactly a good one. Different things appeal to different people, and personally I love the charm of Eastern Europe and find that charm is sometimes lacking in some of the larger central European cities – like Barcelona. I visited here with my friends and while…Continue Reading “Discovering Barcelona”
On a recent trip to Estonia, I was adamant to visit Helsinki while I was there. These two countries are surprisingly only an hour and a half apart by boat when you take the Linda Line Express. This ferry which costs €35 return is for passengers only, but there are plenty other ferry lines which…Continue Reading “A Day In Helsinki”

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”
It’s hard to say where your favourite place in the world is, since comparing the bustling streets of New York is vastly different to the deserts in Namibia. But, that being said…. Montenegro is my favourite place! Montenegro to me is the perfect country with scenery that is yet to be rivaled in my eyes….Continue Reading “Montenegro: Europes Under-Rated Destination”
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”
Budapest was the first stop on my little European tour this Summer. The city definitely has a lot to offer and their architecture is really stunning with buildings resembling the grandeur of those in Rome. There is a nice mix of things to do in Budapest so I think it is definitely somewhere that has something…Continue Reading “Exploring Budapest”
