Having visited Dubrovnik for one night during interrailing, I have to admit it didn’t much of a lasting impression of me. Having returned to visit friends I have come to realise I just didn’t spend enough time in the town to fully appreciate everything that it has to offer and I ended up really, REALLY…Continue Reading “A Weekend in Dubrovik”
In Ireland we have a saying that ‘West is Best’, and I might be slightly bias after a weekend in Connemara but there is a reason that saying exists!

I had an absolutely amazing 2017 where I got to visit ten…Continue Reading “The Panic And Expectations Of A New Year”
With the wonder that is Ryanair, my friend and I managed to bag flights to Cologne for only €19.99 return. There were just two catches to our trip.

I’m heading away in the first week of December I am really getting into the Christmas mood! Christmas markets have such a magical aura about them.

Call me old fashioned but give me a pen and paper over typing on a computer any day. (hypocritical I know, since I am literally writing something on a computer right now). I’m not sure why I like it exactly. Just seeing my thoughts written in my own hand writing from whenever I wrote it just…Continue Reading “The Beauty Of Keeping A Travel Diary”
I have seen a few types of posts like these on blogs before, most notably Retro Flame and her lessons learned in NYC.
