Since the first day I stepped foot in Malta, I have developed a Maltese balcony obsession. Malta’s balconies, otherwise known as the gallarija, are traditional elements of the country’s architecture.

I stayed at the newly-opened Courtyard by Marriott Glasgow SEC in November during the COP26 climate change summit. Being in Glasgow for over two weeks meant I was keen to stay at a hotel that was in a good and convenient location, which provided comfort, and the Courtyard offered just that!
Milan is a city of contrasts, with historic landmarks towering over some of the most modern and trendy buildings. I spent a few days in the world’s fashion capital in October, and it has easily become one of my favourite cities in Europe! All the main attractions are located literally within minutes of each other, so it is very walkable and do-able if you are under time constraints.
