My Viking Adventure
review
City Guide – Edinburgh
I’ve been a fan of Edinburgh for many years, so much so I almost moved there a few year ago. I’d not been in a long time so I recently decided to pay a last minute visit to the city. I’ve always found the city to have an energy and charm about it. Perhaps it’s […]
Ship Visit: MSC Preziosa
Recently I spent time on board MSC Preziosa as part of #BlogCampOnBoard, organised by Trips 100. The purpose of the day was to meet fellow bloggers, undertake blogging workshops, as well as experience everything that MSC Cruises is known about. I’ve previously spent some time on board MSC Splendida, the sister to Preziosa, so I […]
2016 – Year in review
I started this, as I always do, thinking that it’s been a relatively quiet year, but as I started to delve deeper into the past 12 months it quickly became clear that the year has been anything but! 2016 has been a year of highs and lows, both globally, nationally and personally. There are a […]
Visting the Cinque Terre Region, Italy

Cinque Terre, literally meaning five lands, is comprised of five villages spread across a rugged and dramatic coastline, all of which are classed as […]
Interview on TV Cruise Channel

Ship review – Caribbean Princess
I recently spent a day on board Princess Cruises’ Caribbean Princess whilst she was docked in Southampton. She entered service in 2004, so is one of the older ships in Princess’ fleet, however, she thoroughly embodies what Princess is all about. She is the fourth Grand Class ship and comes in just under 113,000-tons, with […]

Focus on Naples – The Borbonico Tunnel
What lies beneath Naples? I’ve visited Naples a number of times over the past few years, so when I visited the city once again during a day visit by Royal Caribbean’s Allure of the Seas I had to put my thinking cap on as to what I could do. Having done some research to find […]
Review – Harmony of the Seas
Harmony of the Seas, the latest ship in the Royal Caribbean fleet, is the largest cruise ship in the world. At over 225,000-tons, she has the total capacity for up to 6,410 people. Taking the best parts from both the Quantum Class and the Oasis class, she represents something new for the industry, together with […]
