Finally, after so many years trying to plan a visit to Rome, me and my wife managed to enjoy an amazing short break together in this amazing city and luckily the weather was perfect too. It is ironic that many have heard the Italian saying of the ‘Dolce far niente’, which practically means ‘the pleasure […]

For over three years now, I’ve been sitting in the sauna three or four times a week. What started as a way to unwind after training has become one of the most consistent habits in my life. There’s real substance behind why it feels so good. Regular sauna use is linked to better heart health, […]

Earlier this year we made our first family trip abroad since the birth of our son to Menorca. Having manoeuvred our way through a 2-year old’s first flight which didn’t prove to be as traumatic as it could have been, we welcomed the break of our week away. Positioned in the northern coast of Menorca, […]

I recently had the chance to visit Lucerne, Switzerland this past July, and if I had to describe the city in one word, it would be ‘picturesque’. I stayed near Lucerne’s old town, which features medieval architecture and cobblestone alleyways. Some monuments I visited included The Lion Monument, a lion sculpture carved into a cliff, […]

I had the pleasure of visiting Beijing last month; a city filled with some of the most historic and iconic sites. This year, China seems to have re-become a popular travel destination for many after covid as everyone seems to be going there. With the 20c+ sunny weather most days over there I was not […]

Living in Kent provides me plenty of opportunities to get outdoors and make the most of the countryside and the fresh air. Often referred to as the Garden of England, there are many walkable green spaces, woodland trails, and public footpaths to explore, offering some fantastic views along the way. As someone that doesn’t get […]

There are a number of things that one immediately notices when one lands in the Himalayan SAR or the Chinese Special Administrative Region of Tibet. The landscape is dramatic with towering mountains, vast plains, powerful and fast moving rivers and wide largely empty highways except for endless convoys of military trucks. The SAR designation is […]

I visited the beautiful city of Toulouse back in April. Rich in medieval history, the city is commonly known as “La Ville Rose” (The Pink City) because the historic centre is almost entirely built from locally sourced pink clay bricks. Stunning architecture can be found throughout the city, including famous landmarks such as the Capitole, […]

A regular thing we do amongst friends in the city during the warmer summer months is to try out some of the more popular rooftop bars. This time did not disappoint with a well spent summer evening at Wagtail, perched high above the City of London it feels like stepping into a world where the […]

I travelled to New York for the first time, and it felt like stepping into a movie scene that I had only ever seen in the movies. From the moment I arrived, the city had an energy unlike anywhere else I had visited. The streets were full of life, bright lights, music, and people from […]

Three weeks ago, over the Easter Bank Holiday weekend, three friends and I made our way to Barcelona. A city I’d never visited before and hadn’t heard a bad word about, so I was keen to see what the fuss was about and discover the Catalonian culture. In typical tourist-style we first visited the works […]

Today, we celebrate England’s patron saint and the rich heritage, traditions, and community spirit.  We’re marking the occasion with a touch of tradition and – most importantly – a slice of something sweet!
