Roam the world, record the moments, relive the memories!
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected everyone and everything, including quickly changing the way cities now look and operate.
In London, as in many cities around the world, health protection has been built into the urban landscape, in order for day-to-day activities to resume safely. Whilst tourist numbers are down in London, those who do come can be reassured by the safety measures in place.
This photo blog portrays some of the initiatives that have been adopted in the capital, including widened pavements to enable social distancing, hand sanitisers in key locations such as Piccadilly Circus, and clear signs and road markings to remind people on how to prevent the virus from spreading.
Greece is one of the first countries to allow tourists back in following the Covid-19 pandemic. Are you thinking about visiting and looking for a hotel in Athens which offers a first-class service and has the most incredible views of the city? Located right near the Acropolis and Temple of Zeus, the luxurious Athens Gate Hotel is the perfect place to stay in the city.
I had the pleasure of staying here during my week in Athens earlier this year – from my spacious suite to the delicious food, from the breathtaking roof terrace views to the impeccable staff service – check out my review of the hotel!
For my first adventure of the decade, I visited Athens and without a doubt, it exceeded my expectations! This city is filled with centuries of ancient history and colourful neighbourhoods, coupled with iconic sights, incredible views and breathtaking sunsets. It is one of the oldest cities in the world with a history that goes back over 3,000 years. The Greek capital is the perfect European destination for the gram, so look no further as I share with you the most Instagrammable spots in Athens!
After Christmas and New Year, the next thing I always look forward to is the deLIGHTful Canary Wharf Winter Lights display!
January saw the return of the award-winning displays for the sixth year. This year was the busiest it’s ever been, with thousands of people going to see the 25 dazzling installations.
London always knows how to ring in a new year in style. Since I was little, I’ve always watched London’s dazzling fireworks display on TV – it’s the best in the world – but I’ve never been able to go and see them in person…until this year.
2020 is a big year. It’s a new decade. So if there was any year I went to see the fireworks from the prime spot right opposite the London Eye, it had to be this year. And I am so glad I did!
