London Birthday Trip
I was lucky enough to have two of my best friends come to London as part of their European holidays, so we organised to meet up in London and see some of the sights together. We actually met just over two years ago while I was travelling through Central Europe, so I felt very lucky…

South Eastern English Castles & Gardens
There’s nothing I love more than exploring a castle. The history, the intrigue, the beautiful architecture and décor, I love it all. I’ve always been a fan of royal families ever since I learned what a princess was, and I love getting to see the kind of life they lived. One of my favourite things…

Canterbury
I’d heard many good things about Canterbury, and was excited to visit the historic town. From its famous cathedral, to the river flowing through the town, it has all the things that make a lovely English village. We visited in October, and got to enjoy a rare bit of autumn sun. We started our day…

Having lived here for half a year, you’d think I would’ve made it to the capital by now. But no, in June 2025 we did our first weekend getaway to London, and made sure to hit a bunch of the tourist hotspots. Buckingham Palace The palace felt like the natural place to start. There was…

A trip to the Hundred Acre Wood
My partner surprised me with a visit to the charming village of Hartfield, and it was such a nostalgic treat — especially since Winnie the Pooh has always been my favourite story. We started the day at Pooh Corner café, where we enjoyed the cutest breakfast: bear-shaped toast topped with golden honey and sweet jam.…

We visited in May, which…

Cornwall is a must-visit if you’re staying in the UK – it is absolutely worth the long drive. Travelling by a car is ideal, but it is doable using public…

A Weekend in Brighton
I still remember the first time I heard of Brighton. It was the early 2010s, and I was deep in the world of YouTube — watching Zoella’s vlogs filled with soft fairy lights, candles, and cozy chats in a pastel-toned flat by the sea. Back then, Brighton felt like a whimsical place from another universe…

Alfriston
Alfriston is a small village a twenty minute drive from Eastbourne. Its quaint streets and historic buildings make it a lovely place to explore, with plenty of walking paths nearby that offer stunning views of the surrounding countryside. The entire village takes about 20 minutes to walk through and is well connected by little paths…

Lewes
One of my favourite day trips from home was to Lewes, a town that somehow manages to feel both deeply historic and vibrantly alive. Set against the rolling South Downs, Lewes wears its medieval character with ease — all cobbled streets, crooked chimneys, and independent shops that look like they’ve been pulled straight out of a…
