I would go back to New York in a heartbeat, as it is such an awesome city, and it’s only 7 hours by plane from the UK. Compared to some parts of the USA that isn’t bad at all. As first time visitors in NYC last year, we were literally blown away by it. There are…

Until recently Berlin hadn’t been a city I’d really thought about visiting.

Birthdays aren’t complete unless you are having fun with family and friends. It also helps if they feature pizza and prosecco. I think the two go very well together and one of the best places to enjoy all of the above is in the relaxed atmosphere of a Pizza Express restaurant with the exciting new Spring…
