Plan Your Next City Break!
  • Nine years. NINE WHOLE YEARS. Of us against the world, working on our marriage and growing up together. This year has had its share of glorious ups and difficult downs but our team is ever stronger. Happy Anniversary Mr S - you’re the mountain to my sea, the tonic to my gin and the best friend I could have ever wished to build a life with 💜

  • I adore cities. Old architecture butts up against modern living to create a rich tapestry that’s always changing. This picture from Munich sums it up for me - I wonder what it will be like in a few years time? . I’m also interrupting this moody cityscape to let you know that voting for the Post Office #TravelBloggerAwards closes tomorrow and I’d love your vote. It means the world to me to be even shortlisted - but to win would be the cherry on top of an awesome summer. The link is in my bio if you have time to vote today! 💛

  • I’ve just started writing about my brilliant day trip I took way back at Easter to Nuremberg. Just a short train ride from Munich, it was great to wander round its pretty medieval buildings and waterways as well as understand its importance in World War II history. . Germany is fast becoming top of my list to explore more deeply. Buzzy cities, sleepy towns and rolling countryside make it a perfect location, and yet its rarely on the radar for many. Have you visited Germany? Where’s your favourite spot? 🇩🇪

  • Always happiest with trainers on my feet, a camera round my neck and curiosity in my heart. 💜✈️☀️ . 📷 = @packyourpassport

  • I’m no cyclist, but I’m really drawn to the idea of hiring a bike and cycling in Amsterdam. Unlike so many other cities, it feels like it is set up for it in a way that is safe and accessible. That means a beginner like me could give it a go! . Some of my favourite pictures from Amsterdam are those with piles of bikes racked up, ready for the residents to go about their day. Have you ever cycled around a city when you’ve travelled there? I’d love to find other places that are good for cyclists, old and new! 🚲

  • If you followed my stories last week you’ll know that I spent most of my time in Amsterdam eating, or wandering the gorgeous back streets in my favourite neighbourhood, De Pijp. There’s so much gorgeous street art there, but inspired by @charliedistracted we headed to this piece to take some photos! . Obviously when we got there, there was a van parked in the way, but undeterred @packyourpassport snapped this photo of me from the side, wearing my new favourite t-shirt from the marvel that is @mutha.hood 💛 . I don’t want to be famous, be a star or be in movies when I grow up. I love my life of relative obscurity, prioritising my family, my friends and my thirst for travel. But...if you’d like to vote for me in the Post Office Travel Blogger Awards I’d be pleased as punch. Link to vote is in my bio - thank you 🎉 #travelbloggerawards
