I have always wanted to visit Matera and often see pictures of it pop up on my Instagram feed. When we visited it honestly felt like we had stepped back in time.
Things to do in Lake Bled
It feels strange looking back on this holiday as it was one of the last times we travelled before lockdown began. The idea of cramming onto an aeroplane and sharing a buffet breakfast with hundreds of other tourists doesn’t seem quite so appealing now! I had always wanted to go to Lake Bled and January […]
10 Days in Portugal!
I think Portugal is fast becoming one of my favourite countries to visit! It has everything – good food, friendly people and beautiful beaches. Last year we were invited to our friend’s wedding there and it seemed like a good excuse to extend the celebrations into a 10 day holiday! Porto We began our trip […]
My Favourite Photo – Inle Lake
I know it’s been a while since I last wrote about my time in Myanmar but I was looking through my photos and one really stuck out to me: I took this photo on Inle Lake of a fisherman that we came across during our boat tour. I only took this photo with my phone, […]

You can’t visit Bagan without spending at least a day exploring them, however there are some other activities that are not to be missed too! […]
Where to Stay in Bagan
The next stop on our trip to Myanmar was Bagan. We flew here from Yangon with Golden Myanmar airlines. Flying was more expensive than taking a bus but as we only had two weeks we wanted to spend as much of it as possible exploring the country rather than in a bus! I am going […]
What to do in Yangon
In my previous Myanmar blog post I covered where to stay and eat in Yangon so now I am going to run through what there is to do in the city. Considering how few tourists there are there is a lot of opportunity for sight seeing and some major landmarks that you can’t miss […]
3 Days in Padua, Venice and Lake Garda
Day 1 – Padova A few weeks ago I took a trip to my favourite Italian city, Padova! I have written about previous holidays to Padova before but this trip was extra special as I was showing one of my favourite people my favourite place for the first time. We flew from Stanstead to Venice […]
