If you do one thing when you're in Positano, make sure it's booking a table at Da Adolfo. The best Italian food I've had in Italy. Period. I'd heard a lot about this place whilst doing research on the Amalfi Coast. And boy did it live up to expectations. Don't you love it when that… Continue reading Da Adolfo – magnifico!

Positano – sun, sea and lots of stairs!
"Positano bites deep. It is a dream place that isn't quite real when you are there and becomes beckoningly real after you have gone" - John Steinbeck All I can say is that the above quote is spot on! I have wanted to go to the Amalfi Coast for years. Has anyone seen the 90s movie… Continue reading Positano – sun, sea and lots of stairs!
Exploring Istanbul – part 2
Welcome back to part 2 of my post on Istanbul! We were absolutely exhausted after my friend's wedding so had a slightly later start the next day. I love walking in Istanbul - it feels very safe and there's an interesting building or ruin around nearly every corner. We first headed to the Basilica Cistern,… Continue reading Exploring Istanbul – part 2
East meets West in Istanbul
It's been 13 years since I last went to Istanbul. On that trip, I made a promise to myself that I'd be back one day. Istanbul really captured my heart on my first visit and so I was slightly nervous that it might not live up to my memories the second time around. I'm glad to say… Continue reading East meets West in Istanbul
Punting in Cambridge

I have however decided to be a bit more spontaneous and venture past the M25. Last weekend, I visited the beautiful town of Cambridge. It’s somewhere I’ve wanted to… Continue reading Punting in Cambridge

Travelling solo
'Life begins at the end of your comfort zone' I used to be one of those people who could never imagine travelling on my own. After all, how could this be fun in any way? But last year, this impression changed completely. In between jobs, I had some time off and wanted to travel and… Continue reading Travelling solo
Weekend in Paris
Hi everyone! Hope you're all having a great weekend. Last week, I had to go to Paris for work on very short notice. As I was there just before the weekend, I thought I'd stay on - you know what they say, we'll always have Paris! *total movie geek* I've been to Paris a couple… Continue reading Weekend in Paris

Cliff-side hike Picking up where we left off, on our third day on the island, we decide to do the walk/hike along the… Continue reading Santorini dreaming – part deux
Island life – Santorini
Santorini was beautiful - there are not enough adjectives to describe this wonderful island! It's also the reason why I've decided to do two posts - there's so much to show! On this trip, I was with two of my friends who i'd never been on holiday with before. We had the best time with a… Continue reading Island life – Santorini
