This year I have come to realise that Germany is a fantastic destination for family travel. When I was given the opportunity to visit the country again to find out about the best things to do in Hamburg with kids, I knew I wanted to share it with Brook, my 3 year old daughter. We left…
On our final day in Hamburg my daughter and I headed across town from the Holiday Inn we were staying at to find Tierpark Hagenbeck (Hamburg Zoo). We managed the bus and subway journey just fine, until an over helpful passerby tried to put us on the wrong S Ban. It was quickly resolved and…
It was pretty grey and damp when we arrived in Hamburg, so I was really pleased that the first activity we had planned was a visit to Chocoversum in the heart of the city’s historic centre. If you are looking for things to do when it’s raining in Hamburg, Chocoversum is a great place to…

If you are thinking about which city to visit in Europe I can definitely recommend Berlin for so many reasons. There’s lots of interesting historic and modern places of interest in Berlin…
I left my house at 3am to make the 2 hour car journey to London Stansted Airport to catch my flight to Berlin that weekend. The kids had both decided to visit me at 1am to rob me of the precious sleep I needed this particular night, so by the time I arrived in Berlin…
It was an absolute delight to be invited back to Chamäleon Theatre in Berlin so soon after seeing the previous show, Scotch & Soda back in March. When I received the email asking me if I would like to see the latest show, PARADE, I knew I couldn’t turn it down. I was so excited to…
When you think of booking a holiday to the UK, everyone one thinks that London is the best city to go to. Don’t get me wrong, London is a great city to visit, but the UK has a number of cities that offer great sight seeing opportunities and lots of things to do for…
Our holiday in Menorca left a big impression on us to be honest. The main reason was because it gave us the perfect balance of fun, sight seeing and the option to visit some great local restaurants in Son Bou. We loved our stay at Royal Son Bou Family Club and we also enjoyed visiting different…

What do you look for in a family holiday? Is quality holiday accommodation like they have at Yelloh! Village Les Grands Pins at Lacanau Ocean? Do you like to be surrounded by natural beauty?

We took our young children to Royal Son Bou Family Club in Menorca for a holiday recently and can honestly say we were very impressed with this all inclusive holiday resort for lots of reasons. If you follow my Instagram account you might have caught a glimpse of what we got up to. I’ve got a…
Until recently Berlin hadn’t been a city I’d really thought about visiting. I was lucky enough to be invited to the city by the Chamäleon Theatre, who were keen to showcase what Berlin had to offer as well as their latest show, Scotch and Soda. My whirlwind tour of city definitely changed my opinion of Berlin as…
I was very excited about arriving in Berlin. Not only were the next 24 hours going to be a lot of fun, but the hotel also looked like it was going to be pretty amazing too. I was going to be staying at the 25Hours Hotel Bikini Berlin, and it already looked like…
Krakow is Poland’s most charming city where majestic history meets world-class infrastructure and service. Its beautiful monumental vistas, high safety standards, and hearty cuisine attract hordes of tourists annually, and a great number of them arrive in Krakow from other parts of the EU by car. With a new sense of adventure inspired by my…
The alarm was set, but the clocks were due to go back in the early hours. I foolishly put my faith in my smart phone to update to the new time automatically, and wake me with enough time to get ready before leaving for the airport. The alarm went and low and behold, I was…
