In August this year I decided to explore Oia, Santorini. After travelling Greece for over 4 years, I wanted to visit one of it’s most iconic islands. I opted to stay in Perissa, which lies on the opposite side of the island to Oia and Fira, Santorini’s most recognisable villages – and the busiest tourist hot spots. Perissa is… Read More
We landed at the airport in Pescara to meet the most beautiful and excited bride. It was the evening and it was warm in Italy. Coming from London, this was something that made me very happy. We found our way to the car, loaded our bags and headed out of the parking lot and down the highway towards Chieuti.… Read More
Last September I had the pleasure of visiting Italy with an actual Italian – my gorgeous friend, Roberta – when we flew over to cover a traditional Italian wedding and ended up exploring the little town of Vasto as well. The wedding, which will be blogged soon, took place in the Puglia region, in southeast Italy. It was… Read More
Almost exactly two years ago, I was on a plane making my way to Italy’s Eternal City; Rome. Given I have always had a love affair with art, history and architecture, to say I was excited was an understatement. Arriving in the afternoon, I made my way to the hotel, unpacked, refreshed and was out the door to explore… Read More
Venice… The sinking city. I had dreamt about visiting for so long – it had been on my bucket list of places to see, along with Rome, Paris, Valencia and Athens – and in August 2014 that dream finally came true. I got to spend 3 days and 2 nights in one of the most romantic cities… Read More
Amsterdam, the city of canals, cyclists and tulips… and last year in September I got to visit for the second time. The first time I went to Amsterdam I fell in love with it’s pretty streets and canal side cafe’s and restaurants. I loved the sound of bicycle bells and eating stroopwafel’s in the morning… Read More
When I was about 5 one of my teachers asked me what I wanted to do when I grew up. I said I wanted to go to Paris. She thought I didn’t understand the question. I think she just didn’t understand me. I have no idea how, at 5 years old and growing up in South… Read More
At present I am living on the island of Ithaca, one of the smaller Ionian Islands off the west coast of Greece. Having completely fallen in love with the island last year, I spent a total of 2 months exploring it before deciding to spend the summer months here this year. So I thought it was… Read More
I am a firm believer in the notion that one is never so good at a particular thing, that there is nothing new for them to learn. I believe this on both a personal and a professional level and every year I set aside money to put towards growing my photography skills. Last year I used my ‘Growth Fund’… Read More
Sunday’s were made for relaxing, enjoying time with friends and apparently, island hopping. If you are planning a wedding, honeymoon or summer holiday to Ithaca, be sure to include this as one of your weekend activities… and Kastos is the perfect island to visit. This tiny island is about 1.5 hours from Ithaca by boat… Read More
