Cambridge is jam packed full of interesting museums.
And most of them will only take you a couple of hours to explore – or longer if you prefer! Continue reading
4 Mini Museums to Visit in Cambridge
England
2019 Travel Goals
Yes! Another year of travel is upon us and I can’t wait to get planning, Brexit be damned.
I will not let the unknown of ‘transport contracts within Europe’ ruin it for me. I shall make my travel master plan anyway and hope for the best!
I always find travel planning such an exciting time, but I always find myself lost with the amount of places I want to visit. I know that I can’t visit everywhere, so cutting it down to only a few places is always REALLY hard! Continue reading
10 Festive Things to Do in London
I love spending time in London during the festive period.
The city goes all out for Christmas and we’ve been visiting every year since we were kids. We’ve had so many fun memories over the years, so I thought I’d share a few of my favourite things to do. It’s likely that most of these are things you can do in every city in England, but London just has the biggest variety! Continue reading
Lunch at Trinity
If you saw my post a few weeks back, you’ll know that I made a fair few new food discoveries while I was home in Cambridge for the summer. One of those was Trinity.
Trinity is right in the centre of town, not surprisingly on Trinity Street and just across from the university college of the same name. Continue reading
Postcards from the Cornish Seaside
Sadly, this is my last Cornish post, but it’s a good one!
We spent the day visiting 3 different towns and villages on the south Cornish coast; eating, drinking and exploring every little nook. The lovely thing about the little villages in Cornwall, are their endless winding lanes filled with pubs, tea shops, ice cream, fish & chips, and interesting boutiques. Continue reading
In The Footsteps of King Arthur at Tintagel Castle
Tintagel Castle lies on the north coast of Cornwall and was supposedly home, at one point, to the legendary King Arthur.
Padella & The Best Gnocchi of My Life
Padella is a restaurant on the edge of Borough Market in London and they serve up some of the most exquisite pasta I have ever eaten.
Be prepared to wait a long old while to get a seat though, as they are super popular and it’s first come, first served. But it’s all completely worth it. I promise. Continue reading
Down to Lansallos Cove
Back in July, we made a little trip down to Lansallos Cove on the south coast of Cornwall.
The coastline is super dramatic, with jagged cliffs and rocks jutting out all over the place. Continue reading
Cambridge – 12 New Food Discoveries
Every time I go back home to Cambridge I love to visit my old favourites, obviously, but I also really enjoy trying new places and dishes too.
I always make a list of places that have opened that have tempted me to try, or recommendations from friends, or even places that are others’ tried and tested favourites that I haven’t had the chance to visit yet.
2018 was a good year of new food for me and although there was more than there is on this list, I’ve rounded it out to 12 of them. Plus, I’ve also added one of my boyfriend’s new favourites that he genuinely couldn’t get enough of while we were there. I’d like to say that a couple of these places are not new discoveries, but the dishes are and they just had to be shared. Continue reading
Sunday River Walk in Cornwall
I love visiting the West Country.
I find Devon & Cornwall, in the south west of the UK, to be so green and lush, and their hilly landscape makes for a refreshing change from the flats of the Fenland around Cambridge. Continue reading
Sunday Lunch at Pint Shop in Cambridge
My home town of Cambridge has some amazing places to eat.
Pint Shop is a restaurant/bar located just off of Market Square in the centre of Cambridge. The decor is the perfect balance between rustic pub and modern eatery, and the food is just amazing. Their drinks list is pretty special too, with a changing draft beer list and a selection of around 100 gins including one of their own. Continue reading

This week is Bees’ Needs Week, which was created to raise awareness of how we can help our wonderful little pollinators.
