There are hoards of castles in Poland to explore, in fact, the country has hundreds to see. It doesn’t matter if you’re visiting for a little city break or a longer road trip, you’ll easily find a fair few of the best castles in Poland dotted all across the country. Now while places like England, […]

Choosing where to go skilling can be a tricky old thing – after all, it’s fundamentally snow and mountains… plus there are just soooooo many places to choose from! The more you ski though, the more you start to pick up on the subtle difference between the different types of ski resorts and start to […]

Let’s be honest, Europe is awash with thousands of pretty little villages to explore, but there are always those select few that really stand out. One of the things I love most about Europe is how diverse our continent is. After all, no two countries are the same and you’re really spoilt for choice when […]

Portugal easily brags about having some of the best weather in Europe so understandably it’s a popular destination for some of the more ‘weather-challenged parts of Europe’ (I’m looking at you the UK and Ireland) to visit. That being said, there are so many amazing cities and towns in Portugal absolutely worth visiting and it […]

Erected over 30 years ago, this landscape has been created by volunteers that look after this one-of-a-kind spot. And to be honest, it’s easy to see why… it’s so unique. That’s why I wanted to share some more […]

You have seven days, a rental car, and a vague idea that Switzerland is full of mountains and chocolate. That’s enough to get you to the airport, but not enough to avoid spending half your trip stuck in traffic on the A2 near Gotthard. A Swiss road trip looks simple on a map. It isn’t. […]

You book a week in southern Italy. The photos looked extraordinary — cobalt water, pastel fishing villages, cliffs dropping straight into the sea. Then the planning starts and you realize there are dozens of islands with no obvious way to compare them. Capri? Sicily? That volcanic one with the famous eruptions? The Sardinia place with […]

Most people planning a trip to Brittany make the same mistake: they put Mont Saint-Michel on their itinerary. That abbey is in Normandy.
