Thailand: Your Comprehensive Packing List

I’ve been to Thailand several times, almost always during peak season (end of November through January). With my parents living in Bangkok for 3 years, it became an easy holiday destination with reasonably cheap direct flights from London (if you book in advance). What I’ve learned during my trips is 1) don’t over pack, 2) bring comfortable walking shoes, and 3) bring a day pack … Continue reading Thailand: Your Comprehensive Packing List

Travelling Light – What’s in my carry on for a weekend trip?

When I travel on the weekends, or even for a week long trip, I only carry a carry on bag. Most of the time this includes a small purse that can be put into the carry on when I fly with airlines like EasyJet, who won’t let you on the air plane with a second item. I’ve also backpacked in Europe twice for 3 weeks … Continue reading Travelling Light – What’s in my carry on for a weekend trip?

A Long Weekend on Islay

Over Easter Weekend, my boyfriend and I headed to Islay with another couple to escape London and explore the Scottish countryside. 

Islay is the fifth largest island in Scotland – home to many of the famous Scottish Whiskey brands as the island due to its climate. Only a few thousand people call the island home. I have to admit, before this trip, I had no idea where Islay was or why anyone would want to visit… Continue reading A Long Weekend on Islay
