I’ll start by explaining how I come to end up in Budapest. I had taken some time off work because of a really bad episode of my depression. I was supposed to go to Sweden during my 4 days off work but I couldn’t face going. I got everything packed and the morning of I […]
With this trip, I wanted to get as far away from my house, my job, Peterborough as my budget would allow. My budget allowed for Warsaw. I got the flights and accommodation for just under £87. A no brainer so I booked it. I spent a full 7 days here. I love Poland. It is […]
When trying to decide where to go for this trip, I wanted to go somewhere different and a country I had never visited before. I looked at the map and for some reason Riga stood out – that was where I was going to go.I guess i’ve always had a fascination with the former Eastern […]
We decided that one of the places we wanted to go but have never gone was to the Norwegian Fjords. I have been to Oslo but Jamie hadn’t been to Norway at all and wanted to go so she could cross of the Nordic countries (Norway was the last of them that she hadn’t been […]
This trip came about because I got an email from Eurostar and just couldn’t help myself. I got this email around September/October time and decided that I would head to Brussels and that I would want to go somewhere from there.

My whole reason for going to Kraków was to see an Andre Rieu concert. I had bought tickets to see him in December of 2012, but we decided to embark on a Mediterranean cruise instead which meant I couldn’t see him. I was glad we went on the cruise, but also always a little bit […]
I managed to find a good deal on a trip to Prague. I have always wanted to go there from the very first time I heard Moldau from Smetana’s Má Vlast suite. As soon as I found the deal I booked it. It managed to find a hostel to stay in for a lovely £4 […]
I decided that I wanted to go to Paris as I got a really good email offer from Eurostar. They were offering one way seats for £29 each – that’s right, £29 each. Who wouldn’t go for an offer like that! I didn’t worry about where I would stay, I just decided I wanted […]
So, I decided that after my last couple of trips I would like to travel some more. I have made a deal with myself that I would try to travel somewhere once a month. Even before I made the deal, I got an email in November or December last year telling me about a deal […]
