Hello! Hi! Remember me? *slowly creeps out from the rock under which I have been cosily hibernating for about 3 years* It’s been a minute since I last posted on here, but a quick peek at my stats page tells me that you guys are still here… so thank you for sticking around! The big […]

One of the things I’m really struggling with during the lockdown is the fact that we can’t travel. For me, my mind only seems to truly switch off when I’m exploring somewhere new. Travelling is my way of hitting my mental ‘refresh’ button. It’s almost as though by processing more immediate physical decisions like “which […]

This week I went on a work trip to Leiden, a beautiful city in the Netherlands.

To reach the fjord, we flew into Bergen – Norway’s second largest city. On the last day of our trip our flight home wasn’t until around […]

If I had one piece of travel advice, it would be to rent a car whenever you can. Sure a group tour can save you a few pennies, but the freedom that comes with your own set of wheels is worth the extra splurge! We recently travelled to Norway for a long weekend with our […]

The morning after our hike to Trolltunga we ignored our aching muscles and started a second hike in the Hardangerfjord region to the Buarbreen Glacier. The photo above is the view from the parking lot – the glacier was such a striking shade of blue! The first part of the hike took us through a […]

At the end of last month I flew to Norway with Aled and some friends, and hiked Trolltunga! You can read more about the hike itself here. Trolltunga was my first black-rated hike, and so I took a lot of time reading blogs and doing my research before I left. Something that I thought would […]
