A Guide to Interrail Italy in 10 days
If you're looking to explore a new country, in a limited amount of time and on a budget, then this is the trip for you!

Then I discovered Interrail which enabled me to travel to Milan, Venice, Pisa, Florence, Rome, Naples and Sorrento all within ten days.
10 Best Things to do in Dubrovnik, Croatia
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Dubrovnik is one of my favourite places on the planet. The combination of the dramatic coastline, turquoise waters, orange-roofed buildings, the mountainous backdrop and the European summer feels, are the best. Dubrovnik has become quite the hotspot in recent years due to the accessibility of surrounding countries and, of course, Game of Thrones fans. Walking around the Old Town, swimming in the Adriatic sea and the view from Mount Srd are all my highlights.
A Day Trip to Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina
This was a totally spontaneous trip that turned into one of my all-time favourites. My sister and I were enjoying an all-inclusive holiday in Croatia when we decided we wanted more than just the beach, pool and cocktails. We had already discussed a day trip to the Krka National Park and knew we needed a car to get there. So, we arranged a hire car from the hotel, for two days and thought why not travel to another country? As you do. This is when Europe has its perks.
Best Breakfasts in Dubai
Avo with scrambled eggies and a caramel latte, please…
Oh, I’d rather have a breakfast date than a dinner date, especially in Dubai as they know how to start their mornings right. I’ve been to a lot of breakfasts spots in the city, but there’s still so many more to see. Dubai has the advantage of being a city on the coast, which means you can enjoy both restaurants on the beach and at the top of skyscrapers.
A Christmassy Weekend in London
London is a hotspot at Christmas time, with endless markets, pantomimes, shopping and of course, Winter Wonderland. There is nothing better than walking down Carnaby Street with a hot coffee warming your hands. Going into the shops, hearing the Christmas music and seeing the lights turn on. If you’re lucky, you may even see some snow!
Best Staycations in the UAE
‘Staycation’ is THE word of 2020, except for Covid of course. With travel being so limited right now, going on holiday in our home countries is the new norm.

The UAE is ever-expanding with dreamy resorts in the desert, honeymoon worthy hotels along the coast and endless 5-star luxury in the big cities.

Rome is one of Europe’s oldest and most popular cities. Rich in history, iconic landmarks and architecture. Not to forget that it’s THE place to immerse yourself in Italian cuisine.

17 Best Places to Visit in Berlin, Germany
I must have visited Berlin over 10 times in my life. As I mentioned in my bio, I’m a quarter German and have a Great Auntie who lives in the city. It kind of feels like a second home.
Berlin is a vibrant, quirky, historical and exciting place to visit. I love the abstract buildings, graffiti and underground stations. You can’t go very far without seeing one of these three things.

10 Photos to Inspire You to Visit Prague
Prague is the capital city of Czechia or most commonly known as the Czech Republic. The city is now one of Europe’s most famous and most visited, as millions of tourists visit each year. As part of my European road trip in January 2014, I managed to squeeze in a memorable 24 hours in the city. I remember falling in love instantly with the buildings, streets and that true European feel. I also remember being completely frozen - it was so cold! Hot chocolate, crepes and cosy pubs kept us going!
