Having recently flown for the first time since the pandemic began, I witnessed first-hand how different flying is now compared to what we were used to pre-pandemic. In this blog post, I have compiled a list of top tips for you to consider when you take to the skies again!
Last week, I went on my first flights since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. It was the best feeling to be back on a plane after 17 months! I flew with British Airways for my trip to Edinburgh, out of London City Airport, and then returning back into London Heathrow Airport.
This was my first time flying from City Airport and the unique route out of London definitely makes for some great shots of the O2 arena and the city! At the end of my trip, the sunshine and blue skies on arrival into my favourite airport, Heathrow, presented me with an amazing view of Windsor Castle. I have missed flying so much, as I am sure you have too, and so this blog post is dedicated to the photos from both flights! Enjoy…
Portsmouth is known as the UK’s ‘great waterfront city’, featuring a historic dockyard and naval base. Its location on England’s south coast makes it the perfect destination for a day trip or weekend staycation from London. I visited this port city at the end of June for the first time and loved it!

After over a year of lockdowns, I have been craving a holiday for a very long time. Despite the fact that restrictions are starting to ease, the UK’s travel traffic light system realistically means that a holiday abroad still feels quite far from reach. With that in mind, I am planning to go on a few UK staycations, which I hope inspire you to explore your home country too! I went to Brighton, in East Sussex, during the end of May bank holiday weekend and with great company, sizzling sunshine and blue seas, definitely had the best time! Here are the top things to do whilst on a staycation in this vibrant city by the sea.
San Francisco, famously known as the City by the Bay, is one of the United States’ most eclectic and vibrant cities, with an endless amount of things to see and do! If you are a first-time visitor and are looking for the best way to spend a week in the city, look no further as this post features a day-by-day one week itinerary to help you plan your trip. From the iconic Golden Gate Bridge to the soaring Transamerica Pyramid, you will quickly realise why the West Coast is the best coast!
South Korea’s capital, Seoul, is a photographer’s dream city. It is a metropolis of stark contrasts. From its historic neighbourhoods and palaces, to the bustling shopping streets and skyscrapers of the modern city, you will be spoilt for choice for photo spots.
In this blog, I list my four top places to photograph when you visit Seoul, with pictures that I took whilst I was in the city. As you will see, I used some interesting photography props, from Scrabble letters to my favourite glass ball, and doing the ‘follow me to’ trend.
There are so many beautiful cities in Europe, but Lisbon is definitely one of the best I have visited. It is the oldest city in Western Europe, with incredible historical sights, majestic panoramic views and vintage wooden trams. Lisbon is known as ‘the city of light’, owing to the sunshine which brightens the entire capital, with approximately 220 days of sunlight each year! I flew to Lisbon for a weekend break and carefully planned my trip beforehand, to make the most of my 48 hours there. Is Lisbon on your list of places to visit? Continue reading to see the best that the Portuguese capital has to offer!
Today, the snow brightened up another lockdown Sunday and brought with it some much needed cheer and happiness!
This continues to be an unprecedented time for travellers, with countries in lockdown, borders closed and flights cancelled. With the new strains of COVID-19 dampening any optimism of travelling abroad in the near future, I have compiled a new list for 2021, on how you can keep your wanderlust alive, from the comfort of your own home.
I launched my travel blog in February 2020. I was so excited to be able to document my travels on this new platform, that I jetted off to beautiful Greece for my first adventure of the year at the end of February. Little did I know at the time that this would be my first and only trip abroad this year.
In 2020, I was looking forward to exploring new cities in North and South America and Asia, and blogging about my next adventures. I would never have imagined that within weeks of my first trip, travelling the world would come to such an abrupt stop. With borders closed internationally, the COVID-19 pandemic quickly turned 2020 into the lost year for travel.
