WASHINGTON TO CHICAGO | USA ROAD TRIP 2016

Sorry about the radio silence from us! I am currently sitting in a motel near Detroit, watching TV and living the absolute high life (sarcasm), after a week of hiking, partying, sightseeing, driving, and eating absolutely all of the food, in lovely locations in very lucky weather. I cannot believe how quickly this trip has gone … Continue reading WASHINGTON TO CHICAGO | USA ROAD TRIP 2016

BIKE RIDING IN DC | USA ROAD TRIP 2016

As you may recall me mentioning, our first day of Washington DC did not go quite as expected; there was rain, sleet, hail... All in the space of one bike tour. If you can't quite picture it, don't worry, as we've made a little vlog to go with it. https://youtu.be/EUhrmebRMNw   I have a few … Continue reading BIKE RIDING IN DC | USA ROAD TRIP 2016

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

THAT TIME MY PICTURE WAS USED IN A TRAVEL ADVERT

Well, the title pretty much says it all with this one, but nonetheless, I shall explain; in 2013 I did the Americana Road Trip tour with Trek America. As part of that trip, we went to Monument Valley, where this photograph was taken:   Trek America asked for people to send in pictures from their … Continue reading THAT TIME MY PICTURE WAS USED IN A TRAVEL ADVERT

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

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

WORST TRAVEL MOMENTS 2015

With this year coming to a close; Christmas over, and 2016 rapidly encroaching, we decided it was time to reflect on the highs and lows of 2015. When asked 'Do you want the good news first, or the bad news?' it's customary to say bad news first. Hence, we're posting our worst moments of 2015 before … Continue reading WORST TRAVEL MOMENTS 2015

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

THE WORLD’S MOST FAMOUS TRAIN | ORIENT EXPRESS

I tweeted about this a couple of weeks ago, but I'm still thinking about it. The TV show, 'The World's Most Famous Train' was (in the UK) on Channel 4 at 8pm on Monday 30th November, and was a one off behind the scenes look at the historical Orient Express train that travels from London to Venice. The trailer can … Continue reading THE WORLD’S MOST FAMOUS TRAIN | ORIENT EXPRESS
