Scrumptious food, beautiful weather, stunning architecture and Tinto de Verano all day long! Seville no doubt made it to my top-3 city break destinations. I visited in the latter part of the summer, a great time to squeeze in a quick weekender to prolong the fading season with a few more delicious rays. On arrival, [...]
This trail takes you on a stunningly beautiful hike along the Algarve's coastline, skimming the cliff-edge the entire way, treating your eyes to views for more or less a four hour adventure - just short of 8 miles. We decided to lengthen our trail slightly by starting at Algar Seco (usually the walk would begin or end at Centeanes).

Heritage Suites is a boutique gem located just far enough from Pub Street [...]
El Nido I was first told about El Nido by my Filipina mum. It was this area of Palawan and also the island of Boracay that her descriptions would spark my imagination with visions of immaculate white beaches, secret coves and crystal blue waters. My insta-feed has since been showered with gazillions of ridiculous photos [...]
I would describe Zürich as a polished metropolis, fused with a stunning burst of rural scenery. The buzzy city is situated next to serene Lake Zürich, set against a majestic backdrop of snow-capped mountains. It really is a beautiful place. My weekender began at the train station, where me and my beau made the short 10 [...]
