Things to do in Besalu Spain
Besalú is one of the most popular medieval villages in the Catalonia region of Spain. It’s easy to reach from Girona or as a day trip from Barcelona, and we’ve visited a number of times. Based on our experiences, we wanted to share with you a guide to things to do in Besalu – beyond […]
How to stay in a Villa for less than the price of a Hostel
When I lived in the UK, friends and I would often band together and go on holidays to giant houses in remote parts of the country, including the Scottish Highlands or the Lake District. We usually hired extravagantly huge houses for these adventures. I remember one on a 10,000 acre estate which came complete with […]
The Street Art of Rio de Janeiro
Ah, Rio! It’s an amazing city for many reasons, although one of them might not come to mind as easily as, say for example, the beaches. I’m talking about Rio’s street art, which, once you’re there, you’ll find pretty much everywhere – yes, on the aforementioned beaches, too! I dearly love street art, because I […]
One Day in Helsinki: What to Do, What to Skip (2026)
One day in Helsinki is enough to feel like you’ve seen the place. Not enough to feel like you’ve got to know it, but enough to tick off the things that actually matter and leave with a handle on what Helsinki is. I’ve been here several times now, in summer and in winter, and a […]

If you’re anything like me, you’re probably thinking of sun kissed beaches and turquoise waters, with palm trees flapping around lazily in the breeze. Maybe there’s […]
Things to do in Finland in Summer: Summer Activities in Finland
Here are three things I didn’t know about Finland: it’s made up of a lot of water and islands, Finnish people are crazy about the outdoors, and there are almost as many saunas as there are people. Perhaps these things don’t come as a surprise to you, but this was my first visit to the […]
Where to Eat in Poznan: Summer Edition
Maybe you recall that we went to Poznan in Poland recently. Maybe you even remember that it was our second time; our first visit happening last November. Back then we did a post on the food of Poznan, covering a lot of options of where to eat in Poznan. Anyway, you can imagine we were […]
In photos: Dubai
Early on in 2014 I whizzed across to Dubai to take part in the Arabian Travel Market – a very large travel show where I was speaking on a variety of topics, from working with professional travel bloggers, through to the importance of mobile in today’s tourism industry. Yep, I do more than take pictures […]
20 Spectacular Photos From Around The World: XV
And so we roll around to version 15 of this post, where I highlight some of my most popular pictures I’ve shared on my Facebook Page from the last month or two. I’ve renamed the series to mark the fifteenth edition, but other than a prettier label, the filling remains the same. Since the last […]
