A Week in the French Riviera – Part One
Visiting the south of France has been on my bucket list since I was a child. Hearing stories from my mum about soaking up the sun on a beach in Nice, enjoying the beauty of Monaco’s coastline, and browsing the boutiques of Cannes made me so excited to visit one day. We decided to stay…

A Weekend in London
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.

Our Istanbul trip was a reunion with one of my partner’s friends who currently lives in Serbia, and what a whirlwind it turned out to be! We landed at 4am, groggy but excited, and managed to sleep off the flight before heading out for a much-needed coffee and our first taste of Turkish lunch. One…

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…

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…
