I think we should go to Bonifacio tomorrow… We’ll set out super early to get there before anyone else, so we won’t have to deal with the snaking traffic that can back up along the road leading down to the harbour – if you leave a minute too late. No, don’t worry about something to […]

Sunday Photo – Shopping Day – Corsica
Sunday Photo – Corsican Light
First thing in the morning in Corsica. We have spent the past week here (hence my quietness on’t blog!) and the light is just gorgeous… Back soon.
An Ex Insider’s Guide to Munich (and surrounds) with Kids
I get a lot of emails asking for advice on what to see in Munich, so I thought it might be useful to keep an expanding list here, in the hope that it helps others plan their trips (I made it a “what to do and see in Munich with Kids” type post, as […]

You can’t really miss it in thanks to a couple of reasons, its distinctive wavy roof caused by gentle subsidence, and the […]
Norway with Loki
I remember speaking on a Travel Panel at BritMums a few years ago where I was asked whether you should bother writing about a destination if it had been written about many times before. “Absolutely” I replied, your personal experience of a place is never going to be the same as someone else’s is […]
Sunday Photo – Below Tintagel
A sea view taken below medieval Tintagel Castle in Cornwall… England can be so beautiful, especially at wildflower time!
Surfing with George
I am very much of the opinion that you only get once chance at life. It’s often shorter than you think, and you should absolutely grasp every opportunity you get to see new places, and try new things… Whatever or wherever it is, it might be the best thing you have ever seen/done after […]
A Taste of Cornwall
Mention Cornwall to a lot of Brits, and watch as their eyes mist over with memories of many a childhood Cornish holiday. It is up there as a favourite holiday destination for the staycationers amongst us for so many reasons… Even Mr R became misty eyed when someone suggested Cornwall after a family discussion about […]
