Bali is a country rich with an ornate heritage and strong cultural beliefs. Whilst the party scene may be enticing and the beautiful beaches hard to say no to, the temples in Bali are often one of the main reasons why tourists visit this land. If you are planning a trip to Bali to visit […]
Photo Of The Week – Cairo From Above
January 20, 2012 by 2 Comments
If you’re living in the Northern Hemisphere, especially Europe, then an Egypt holiday can be a godsend during the winter months. Two years ago I visited Cairo and it was so sunny, bright and interesting that I’ve been dying to go back and explore some more ever since. There’s so much more to do and […]
Photo of The Week – The Washington Monument Mounted Police
January 13, 2012 by 3 Comments
I’m not entirely sure they exist only to protect the Washington Monument, but I imagined these Police did so at the time anyway – it seemed like a cool and heroic thing to be doing for a job, after all. There was something about their blue uniform against the white stone and green grass that […]
Photo Of The Week – Helsingborg Square
December 30, 2011 by Leave a Comment
I love Sweden, especially getting off the well-trodden tourist trail of Stockholm and getting out to see some of the lesser known cities – like Helsingborg. Located in the south of the country, and only a short train ride from Copenhagen, this seaside city is small, quaint and makes you feel like you’ve walked straight […]
Photo Of The Week – Kennington Tube Station
December 23, 2011 by 8 Comments
I recently watched a documentary about ghost sightings on the London Underground and found it absolutely fascinating – I’ve never been one to believe in the supernatural, but the many tube workers speaking of their experiences over the last 100 years certainly got me thinking. There is apparently a man who walks the tunnels of […]
Photo Of The Week – Tivoli Gardens, Copenhagen
December 9, 2011 by 2 Comments
Tivoli Gardens the famous amusement park in central Copenhagen has been ‘amusing’ people since 1843 – not a bad run considering rollercoasters were only invented in 1885! And while I would hope they have replaced the wheels since then, I loved the olden day feel of the Gardens, in particular their grand entrance lit up […]
Photo Of The Week – A Very Grand Central Terminal
December 2, 2011 by 5 Comments
I love New York for it’s Art Deco design mixed with the unusual and unexpected – which is exactly what I found Grand Central Terminal to be. I loved the aquamarine ceiling swirled with romantic astronomy details and fairy lights dotted in amongst them. It certainly is one of the grandest places to be seen […]
Photo Of The Week – A Dreamy English Country Lane
November 25, 2011 by 2 Comments
I visited the north of England a couple of weeks ago and I forgot how beautiful the countryside here could be – especially since I’m not often walking along country laneways – it’s more cobbled streets here in London! I loved the dreaminess of this particular day – the way the shadows and sunlight […]

Photo of The Week – Arlington Cemetery In Autumn
October 28, 2011 by 6 Comments
Everyone will recall seeing the rows and rows of snow-white gravestones at some point in their lives, and in the flesh, it’s even more eerie than you could ever imagine. Housing the gravestones of all American soldiers to have died in combat since the Civil War right through to the ongoing conflict in Afghanistan, the […]
