The Amalfi coast has so many beautiful towns and villages. You could easily spend weeks here, moving from one place to another. Sadly, I only had one week so I visited the standard 'must-see' places, including Ravello, which can be reached by bus from Amalfi. Amalfi has a very different vibe to Positano and is a lot… Continue reading Reaching heights in Ravello

Movie magic in Capri
Ah Capri, you are one heck of an island! I think Capri is definitely one of my favourite places in all of Italy (and that's saying something)! Capri is a dream, literally like being on the set of a glamorous movie. The minute you approach the island on the ferry, the colour of the water hits… Continue reading Movie magic in Capri
Da Adolfo – magnifico!
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!

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
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

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
