I have wanted to go back to Spain for a while and just never found anywhere that I wanted to go. I started to look at the flight sites and saw Seville for £50. I booked it straight away and then found a cheap hostel and booked that. I was telling Ken that I was […]
I had no intention of going anywhere after I had abandoned my Edinburgh trip (weather-related). As I am often wont to do, I started looking at flights for this week and I was looking to see where was cheapest. The place that was always showing up as the cheapest was Jeddah in Saudi Arabia. I […]
So… this was a really impromptu trip. I booked it on Tuesday when I was on my way back to Marrakech from Essaouira and I was going to leave on the Sunday but I couldn’t get to Heathrow because of rail works closing the line between Peterborough and London. I looked on the Saturday and […]
I have wanted to come to Marrakesh for a good few years now. I tried to get here in 202 but the pandemic put pay to that. I tried again in 2021, but the pandemic still had other ideas for me. I had almost given up on coming to Morocco, but I found some flights […]
Back in February I was supposed to go to Chișinău (pronounce Kishinow) but the airline messed around with the flights and I would have gotten only about 14 hours here if I had done it the way they had wanted instead of the 4 days I was planning. I had pretty much given up on […]
When I was looking for places to visit in 2025, I started looking at the Central Asia Stans. Like I mentioned in my post about Uzbekistan, I had never been to this part of the world, so 2025 would be my opportunity to see this part of the world. I looked to see which of […]
The day of leaving Peterborough and the day of getting to Tashkent are pretty much one and the same for me. I left Peterborough on the 16:30 train and as I was heading to London, I got a notification to say that the flight from Gatwick to Istanbul was delayed by about 2 hours. Why […]
As you may (or may not) already know, Poland is a favourite destination of mine. So far this month, I have been here 3 times. I was in Szczecin, then Warsaw and now Gdansk. I have been to Gdansk 4 times already. At this point, it is a yearly ritual to be in Gdansk and […]
I have wanted to go to Taiwan for a while but have never found a price on flights that I was willing to pay. I finally found them and decided I would book. I booked for the week over my birthday since I have been in Asia over that time for the last few years. […]
I’m not sure if it’s clear how much I love Poland. If it isn’t, I love Poland so much. I feel at home whenever I am here. Everything feels familiar. Everything feels natural. I have been to Warsaw several times before. You can read about those here, here, here, here. I have a friend who […]
