A two-week round trip to the beautiful tropical islands of Bali and Gili in Indonesia with stopovers at the contrasting modern cities of Dubai and Singapore. An amazing holiday retreat so varied in landscape, history and culture.
A long Easter weekend walking and relaxing away from the chaos of city life, staying in a luxury boutique hotel surrounded by the most beautiful scenery England has to offer, we are of course visiting the much-loved Lake District.
This impromptu trip to Lake Garda to celebrate Karina’s birthday become an eye opener to the beauty and diversity of Italian landscape, with so many unique sights and explorations in and around the Lakes.
Hi, we are Karina and Chris and this is our travel blog. We both have full time jobs in London so are not fortunate enough to travel the world full time, maybe one day, but that being said we do manage to get a fair amount of travelling under our belts.
We like to explore and do things our way. Very rarely will you find us on an excursion bus or tour guide! Our preferred means of travel is a car packed with a change of clothes, plenty of food and a battery pack to keep our devices running. Our accommodation choices range from camping (Chris) to boutique hotels (Karina) and we hardly ever sit still with a full day of activities planned out well in advance.
We use a lot of other people’s blogs when planning our trips so wanted to give back with our own insights and experiences. When writing the posts we try to eliminate any questions we had to help others save time and money and have the best experiences on their travels. We are those annoying people who love to talk about where we’ve been and share the never-ending reel of photos with friends and family. Our posts hopefully provide a succinct summary of these. Feel free to peruse the photo galleries too if you have time!
Most importantly, this blog is a very recent hobby of ours and we’re learning a lot so any questions or advice you have please drop us a comment below. We’re very excited to hear from our fellow travellers.
