OOO | THE WEEKENDER
I hate to be away from home comforts for too long hence I am the perfect weekend traveller, Friday to Monday type deal because for some reason I get itchy feet to be home. Not that I have not been away for longer, but a short stop is my ideal kind of get away. The…

SUMMER ROAD TRIP- RYE
The beautiful market town of Rye in Sussex is one perfect for a day trip exploration. Between rolling hills and the English channel, it is abundant in history and charm. It is a short hop from Hastings, that of the battle, trapped in a moment in time; timbered houses, little lanes, cobbled streets, quirky shops,…

Get ready to see London in all its wonderful glory, because there is nowhere quite like London in the summer, it is pure vibes and good times.

STRANGERS IN PARIS

FLORENCE in 120 Minutes- ESCHER

EDINBURGH, THE ENDEARING
You know how everyone has a happy place? Well Edinburgh is that place, that happy place for me. Besides the book festival which is the best time to be there because the city is buzzing, but never crowded, the city makes you feel like a part of it; like you are among kindred. Winter is…

SUMMER ROAD TRIP- OXFORD
Because airlines are moving reckless these days, we need to find other ways to get away and if planes are not doing the job, then trains and automobiles will have to do. There are places of great beauty to visit on these isles, beauty and history which is why I tend to never go away…

WILD, WILD, SCOTLAND – GLENEAGLES, THE UNFORGETTABLE
It is unfair that a place be so magical and pretty and historic and enchanting all at once with EVERYTHING… every single thing, to do and more. It is unfair that at every corner awaits a surprise, a charming reveal, you feel spoiled upon walking in because everyone is falling over themselves to cater to…
