The landscape of how individuals travel sure has changed since my last backpacking tour of Europe in 2010. Five years ago, when I would ask fellow travellers where they were staying, 99% would list off…
Before my partner and I embarked on our European adventure, we spent some time on the beautiful Caribbean island of Grenada. We have been blessed to visit numerous times (it helps when you have family…
Here is a photo recap of our wonderful time in Portugal. I hope you enjoy!
Our time in Portugal is slowly coming to an end. We have three days left in this beautiful country, splitting our last few days between Carvoeiro and Faro. I don’t know if it is physically,…
If you caught my posts last week, you would know that I’ve become enamoured with the world of travel blogging. It’s like a black hole you can get lost in, every further click leading to a…
I’ve never been one for planning too far in advance, in any aspect of my life, especially with travel. I don’t like having things ‘too planned’. I’m all for a general guideline of the days…
If you have been following this blog for the past week, you know that my partner and I have been cruising around the Algarve in a fancy new Fiat. Fifi as I endearingly refer to…
I’ve been doing a lot of research on the Algarve in an attempt to determine what will be on tap for the next week. Here are our top five contenders; these could change at a moments notice, but…
We spent last weekend enjoying the sights and sounds of Lisbon. Walking through the narrow streets, the smell of clean laundry on the line, taking in the tiled buildings and views from all corners of…
We recently spent five days in Lisbon, the capital and tourist centre of Portugal. The selfie sticks, fanny packs, and Tilley hats were everywhere. However, since we were visiting during shoulder season, I’m sure it…
I have learned many things about Portugal in the short two weeks I have been here. For instance, the ‘jegging’ fad is still going strong, you can get a decent glass of wine for $1.50,…
Have you ever wondered to yourself, “what have the Portuguese done to help solve world hunger”? Me neither, until today. On the advice of a tour guide, I set out to find a local sandwich…
After reviewing my posts this week I realized that I left out a critical piece of information. Where are we, and what the heck have we been up to!? Therefore, I have decided to create…
Starting this week, I’m going to do a regular post titled “Thursday’s Three Things”. These things will change week to week. For example, it could be “Three Things I Loved”, or “Three Things to Avoid”,…
All week the weather in London had been bearable. Truthfully, for London during March it was almost exceptional. There was no rain, the sun was out everyday and it was about thirteen degrees. Totally doable.…
Well, after the first day’s epic journey, I doubt my stylin’ Lucky Brand ankle boots were made for walking. Or, maybe it’s not the boots fault, maybe it’s the fact that I spent the past…
I have always had this fascination with London. It began long before I had ever visited the mega city. I don’t exactly know when it started or why but I always envisioned myself a transplant…
We are definitely not the first, nor will we be the last, but wow, that was a long time to be on a runway. Our departure from Grenada was going smoothly, we had our last…
Well, look at that, a whole month has flown by without a single update from yours truly. Now, I can make all the excuses in the world for why I haven’t posted anything since our…
Two more sleeps and we will be leaving the comforts of home to wander parts of the globe for six months. I couldn’t be more excited!
