Sometimes, things don’t always go to plan. Sometimes, those things are a trip to one of the most recognised parts of the world, as my friend Beth and I figured out on a long, stressful day in Toronto. Although we made it to the gushing waters of North America’s famous falls, our journey that led […]
Doggy Afternoon Tea at Egerton House Hotel
Apart from walks in the park and the occasional pub or beer garden, it can be a struggle to think of ways to keep your pooch entertained in London.

Bottomless Sunday Roast at South Place Chop House
The word ‘bottomless’ has described a lot of my meals recently. And I am not complaining.

Enchanting Nights at Walt Disney World Resort Hotels
After recovering from jet lag / severe sunshine and Disney depression last week, I’ve finally sorted out my 1000 + photos from Orlando.

10 Places Around the World That Took me By Surprise
