Life is an adventure
These days, my destination wish list is longer than ever. At one point, I had the next 4 years’ worth of holiday destinations planned and scheduled…yeah, thanks COVID. But back when I was just beginning to get a taste for adventure, the world was such a big place – add to the fact that I’d …
Probably THE most iconic hotel on the Vegas strip, the Bellagio is famous for its elegance, luxury and dancing fountains. And I’m sure we’d all love to stay there too, right? It’s somewhere I’ve always wanted to go – the Bellagio that is, not Vegas. If I could just spend one night there, I’d be …
If anyone tells you Vegas is expensive, they lied. Okay, so they only lied a little bit and yes, it does depend on what you want to do. But we categorically proved that a 2-week trip to Vegas doesn’t have to cost the earth. Lee had been to Vegas before – twice – so we …
A trip to South Africa wouldn’t be complete without a safari. Not wanting to miss out on a true African experience, we booked a day at Aquila Private Game Reserve. When researching nearby safaris.

All-inclusive can be a great option for those who love to relax, enjoy the beach and really take time out from their busy life – after all, that’s what a holiday’s about right? (*the first time we’ve ever relaxed in our lives!) The downside of all-inclusive is that sometimes it can be EXPENSIVE. And you …
Commemorating the 100th anniversary of the discovery of Tutankhamun’s tomb, the Saatchi Gallery is currently exhibiting a wide collection of artefacts, many of which have never before been outside of Egypt. It will be the last time these priceless exhibits will tour internationally and so for many, it’s a once in a lifetime opportunity to …
All the images in this post were taken on an iPhone 11 or iPhone XR. New York City. The Big Apple. Capital City. The City that Never Sleeps. It’s an iconic bucket-list destination with a skyline the whole world knows. For some, it’s a dream destination – to go shopping down 5th Avenue, see a …
It’s no secret I’m an animal lover. So when Lee asked me what I wanted to do for my birthday, I had a bucketlist adventure waiting.
