There are so many places to eat and drink in Amsterdam so I’ve picked a few of my favourites so you can give them a go when you’re next in town! Breakfast For me, there is only place to go for breakfast, Bagels & Beans. I am all about the cream cheese bagel with wild salmon as I always feel like that’s the breakfast of…

When it comes to Amsterdam, I love it there, but I don’t go for the ‘naughty side’ as many tourists do. I go for how stunning it is, the amount of history there and how good the food is! After spending some time with Clink Hostels over in Noord I took Penny out into Centraal Amsterdam before catching our flight home. Here’s how we spent…

As part of our day out in Noord we visited the A’DAM Lookout Tower. I’m a sucker for a good view out over a city so I was dead up for this! With an entry of a mere €12.50 it’s something I’d now make the trip over to Noord just to do. Here’s what you can expect from the awesome A’DAM Lookout! The experience starts from…

On my most recent trip abroad, I headed to Amsterdam with Clink to stay in their ClinkNoord Hostel. As I had never even heard of Noord before despite this being my third visit to Dam I was super excited to get out with the team and explore! We had a fun packed day, walked over 25,000 steps and saw some great sites so here’s my…

Two of them are in London; I stayed in one back in 2015 and it was a converted courthouse (where Punk band The…

When it comes to cars, we all know how much I love them. I so miss having a car of my own, but financially it makes so much more sense for Mike and I to continue to share as we don’t use it much. We often discuss the next type of car we’re going to get once we’ve bought our house, so for now, dreaming…

 Since having my eyes lasered back in January 2016, I’ve been really careful with my eyes. I wear sunglasses as soon as there is the slightest glimmer of sunlight, I use the night shift setting on my phone from 9pm, and I try to limit my computer use outside of work but I had no idea that eating certain foods can help prevent damage to your…

My favourite time of year is just around the corner and it is time to begin preparing. Nope, it’s not Christmas, it’s Halloween! So I have combined two of my most favourite thing; dogs bring us all kinds of joy and we enjoy having them around during all types of celebrations so Halloween is no exception. Together with natural dog food suppliers Feedem, I’ve taken…
