After our accidental 12 hour sleep, we awoke for our first full day in Berlin. We were pretty damn hungry seeing as we'd missed dinner the night before, so got up, got showered and dressed, then headed out onto the streets of Mitte, where we were staying. We'd noticed a health food cafe just down … Continue reading NO SITTING DOWN | BERLIN | WEEKEND WANDERING

WHY DO BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO GOOD PEOPLE? | BERLIN | WEEKEND WANDERING
Day 1 of our trip to Berlin. After roughly 3 hours sleep, Naomi and I jumped (/slithered slightly unwillingly) out of bed and into plane appropriate clothing, before zipping up our suitcases, calling an Uber and arriving at Victoria station in London ready for a train down to Gatwick Airport in order to catch … Continue reading WHY DO BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO GOOD PEOPLE? | BERLIN | WEEKEND WANDERING
BUT, WE’VE JUST GOT HERE? | BERLIN | WEEKEND WANDERING
I mentioned in last Sunday's post that Naomi and I would be in Berlin this weekend. I wasn't lying. What I didn't imagine, was just how busy my working week would be, meaning that I would have zero time to do proper research or write any posts in the build up. Or that I would … Continue reading BUT, WE’VE JUST GOT HERE? | BERLIN | WEEKEND WANDERING
EXPLORING WASHINGTON DC | USA ROAD TRIP 2016
After yesterday's freak hail stones / blizzard, miraculously today was beautiful sunny weather; not a cloud in the sky, which we were very happy about. We walked all around the basin, and took in the sights our rain filled eyes weren't quite able to fully appreciate yesterday. We walked almost constantly for about 10 hours. … Continue reading EXPLORING WASHINGTON DC | USA ROAD TRIP 2016
LONDON | VLOG | WEEKEND WANDERING
After what feels like an age (#countrysidewifiproblems) my vlog has FINALLY uploaded. It's genuinely taken since last Saturday. So, please, please give it a watch! It features Hamilton, Dan and I; three musketeers that ventured around London to see what's what in the English capital. Suffice to say, we had a lot of fun. Find … Continue reading LONDON | VLOG | WEEKEND WANDERING
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
MUNICH RESIDENZ AND THE ENGLISCHER GARTEN | CHRISTMAS IN MUNICH
After our unfortunate attempt to visit Nymphemburg Palace (read about it here), we were very excited about seeing the Munich Residenz, which was previously a Royal Palace. This time, it was open and we actually made it inside, which was a good start. Ok, there's potential we walked around the building a couple of times … Continue reading MUNICH RESIDENZ AND THE ENGLISCHER GARTEN | CHRISTMAS IN MUNICH
THE ART DISTRICT | MUNICH
I still can’t believe quite how much we managed to fit into our short time in Munich, which was in early December 2015; visiting (closed) palaces, the science and technology museum, Christmas markets, beer halls and more. Amazingly, including this one, there are two posts to go just on the subject of what we did! … Continue reading THE ART DISTRICT | MUNICH
END OF THE ROAD | EDINBURGH | SCOTTISH ROAD TRIP
Our two final nights were spent in the unique and charming city of Edinburgh. I'd always wanted to go and in all honesty had no idea how to go about planning our time there. The rest of our road trip in Scotland was mostly spent in rural areas, so I knew a city would … Continue reading END OF THE ROAD | EDINBURGH | SCOTTISH ROAD TRIP
MONKEYS, MUSEUMS AND MODERN ART | STOCKHOLM | WEEKEND WANDERING
Sweden is beautiful. In all senses. The people, the place, the food. I’m sure this is something I probably said about Norway last year, as I found Stockholm (surprise, surprise) to be almost an amalgamation of the different places I visited whilst road tripping around Norway. Due to work commitments, we only had 3 days … Continue reading MONKEYS, MUSEUMS AND MODERN ART | STOCKHOLM | WEEKEND WANDERING
