Amsterdam is such a beautiful city and I fell in love with its uniqueness. It was the last stop on our interrail trip so by the time we arrived, I was exhausted from travelling. Due to this and a number of other factors, I was stressed the majority of the time and that perhaps prevented…

The True Cost of Interrailing
Let’s be real, going away on holiday for weeks on end is never going to be overly cheap but how much does it actually cost to go interrailing? It’s something that I had wanted to do for years so last Summer I decided to properly save for it by setting aside my wages from work…
48 Hours in Budapest: A Guide
As we lost a day to travelling, we only got to spend little over 48 hours in Budapest, the first stop on our interrail trip. I was super excited to explore the city so I was gutted when our flight was delayed and we missed out on time there. Budapest is absolutely gorgeous and I’m…
Three Days in Berlin: A Guide
Berlin was my favourite city of the six I visited on my interrail trip. It was at the top of my list of places to go when the trip was its planning stages and I sincerely hope it won’t be too long before I visit again. It reminded me of London as it’s more diverse,…
Hello from a European Train
As I write this I’m on a train somewhere in the Czech Republic on my way from Prague to Berlin (and now proof reading this in a Berlin coffee shop). There’s a small town to my left and rolling hills to my right with the sun beaming down on it all. The trains on mainland…
A Guide to the Avengers in Edinburgh
Sunshine on Leith and Trainspotting are some famous examples of films that were shot in Edinburgh. The Scottish capital obviously plays a huge role in those movies, as most locations do, so when the huge Marvel franchise strayed away from New York and Wakanda to film Infinity War here, it was a pleasant surprise. It…
Edinburgh During Christmas
Happy December! If you’re not in the festive spirit yet then what are you waiting for? Get those Christmas tunes blasting and turn on your fairy lights and may as well snack on a mince pie or two whilst you’re at it. Edinburgh at Christmas is wonderful as the whole city transforms into a Winter…
The Edinburgh Grand
Opened in June 2018 in a former bank on St Andrew’s Square, the Edinburgh Grand is one of the Scottish capital’s most luxurious hotels consisting of 50 apartments. It boasts interiors oozing with opulence and views that are unmatched, especially in the penthouse which offers a 360-degree lookout over Edinburgh. Every detail has been carefully…
My 2018 Paris Travel Diary
“Paris is not a city, it is a world.” Have truer words ever been spoken? Paris has a manner about it that makes it distinct from other capital cities. Despite being just as busy, inhabited by irritable citizens and teaming with tourists, it still captures my heart like no other place ever has. I often…
My Day at Disneyland Paris
I couldn’t contain my excitement as I stepped off the RER at Gare de Marne-la-Vallée, surrounded by many other Disney fans. I was literally skipping through the barriers after scanning my ticket, probably as I did when I last visited at eight years old. It had been a decade since I was last at Disneyland…
