A WEEKEND IN MUNICH

Over the past month we've been posting about our Christmas Trip to Munich; something we highly recommend everyone experiences! We've written in detail on our experiences whilst we were there already, but I thought it might be helpful to give you a mini overview of everything else - where we stayed, how we got about, … Continue reading A WEEKEND IN MUNICH

AN UNSUCCESSFUL AFTERNOON | MUNICH

With only 3 days in beautiful Munich, we decided to conquer as many tourist spots as we possibly could. Hence in one afternoon, we jumped on a train with the intention of visiting the BMW Museum, the Olympic Park AND Nymphemburg Palace. Perhaps a little ambitious, but nothing we haven't done before. First things first, logistics. … Continue reading AN UNSUCCESSFUL AFTERNOON | MUNICH

NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM’S ICE RINK | LONDON

Not long ago I filmed at the Natural History Museum ice rink, and adjoining alpine bar for work. And it was beaut. Yes, it's a bit overpriced and crowded, but it's Christmas in London - where isn't? Now, I'm not actually a big fan of ice skating but that doesn't mean I can't appreciate a … Continue reading NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM’S ICE RINK | LONDON

NATIONAL TRUST AT CHRISTMAS

Sadly, I can't find it for you all to enjoy, but believe me, it was good. I do remember all the lyrics to the … Continue reading NATIONAL TRUST AT CHRISTMAS

A WEEKEND OF WEIHNACHTEN | MUNICH

Last week, Hamilton and I spent 3 days wrapped up in Christmas spirit; visiting the gorgeous German city of Munich, where we went to markets, wandered through gardens and drank all of the beer. I'd never been to Germany before this trip, but I did have a picture in my mind of what it would be like... (Aka all the … Continue reading A WEEKEND OF WEIHNACHTEN | MUNICH

Culture, Country and Christmas: London Day Out

Sadly, this post is not centred around one countrified christmas museum, or tour, or event or anything. Because if so, I would probably be there every single day. It is about a damn good day though;last Sunday, when Naomi, Hamilton and I took advantage of lots of different things happening at the same time in … Continue reading Culture, Country and Christmas: London Day Out

CHRISTMAS, CULTURE AND CAKE | AMSTERDAM | WEEKEND WANDERING

In December of last year (2014), I took a trip to see my very good friend, Karolina, who lives in Amersfoort. As she is an excellent and incredibly lovely person, she welcomed me into her home and then showed me around. Now, I know Christmas travels aren't always at the front of people's minds as Christmas … Continue reading CHRISTMAS, CULTURE AND CAKE | AMSTERDAM | WEEKEND WANDERING
