Buying Luxury Items from Abroad

Buying Luxury Items from Abroad

There has been a debate about whether buying luxury items abroad is a better deal than importing them to one’s home country. In fact, a recent study has shown that travelers spend more money on luxury goods in foreign countries than in their home countries.

The reason for this is that in some jurisdictions, there are a plethora of taxes that can make a drastic difference in the overall price of…

Get Taxi Savvy in London this Summer

Get Taxi Savvy in London this Summer

The biggest advantage that taxicabs have over buses and the ubiquitous ‘Tube’ are that they can pick you up right from your doorstep. This not only eliminates the hassle of walking to the station or the bus stop at odd hours of the day and night (often in inclement weather) but also takes away the stress commonly associated with public transport. As a result, you arrive on your destination as…

Goodbye Birmingham, 안녕 서울! This time last year, I was sat on the floor of Heathrow's Terminal 5, waiting to board a one way flight to the other side of the world.

Keeping Up To Date When You're Far From Home with The Sunday Times

Keeping Up To Date When You’re Far From Home with The Sunday Times

One of the things I miss when I’m abroad is being able to curl up on a sofa at the end of the day, and read the newspaper. Over the last few years, my main source of news has switched to Facebook, and we all know how irritating the comments section can be. So, whenever I find myself at home, I always pick up some daily newspapers to get myself back up to date, and let’s face it, is there anything…

A Beginner’s Guide to Cruising

A Beginner’s Guide to Cruising

Cruising is a great way to see the world at a different pace.

If you’ve never been on a cruise, it’s important to know how it differs from other kinds of holiday. Here’s our rundown of the most important things to keep in mind before booking…

Surviving the Subarctic with Snugpak

Surviving the Subarctic with Snugpak

It’s safe to say; I think I’m a warm weather girl…

If you’ve been following me on any of my social media accounts over the last week or so, you might have noticed that my feeds have been filled with gloriously wintry snaps of Finland, but with the mountains of crisp, white snow came temperatures lower than anything I’ve ever experienced before. Now, I’m no stranger to the great outdoors during…

Keeping the Magic Alive this Christmas I've been away from home for most of this year, and as I'm now in the final stages of procuring an international teaching visa (more about that another day!), this could well be the last Christmas I have in the UK for the foreseeable future.

Sunsets and Stargazing on Mt Teide

Sunsets and Stargazing on Mt Teide

Despite absolutely loving my stay at the Puravida Jardín Tropical Hotel, the surrounding area of Costa Adeje was personally doing nothing for me, and as such I found myself not enjoying my time in Tenerife as much as I had in the rest of the Canary Islands. Having ventured out on several occasions in search of things to do, exciting places to photograph or even just to buy some water, I felt as…

Volcanos and Vineyards in Lanzarote

Volcanos and Vineyards in Lanzarote

After spending a day under the blazing Moroccan sun in Agadir less than twelve hours prior to our arrival in Lanzarote, I was optimistic that the good weather would have followed us back to the Canary Islands; it wasn’t to be. I awoke early to heavy rain pounding on my cabin window, and in the hope that it would stop by the time I left for the final shore excursion on my Thomson Colourful Coasts…

Off-Roading in Agadir

After setting sail from Funchal two nights previously and spending a full 36 hours at sea, by the time we arrived in the city of Agadir on Morocco‘s west coast, I was thankful to have both of my feet back on surface that wasn’t moving. Although I hadn’t suffered from any real motion sickness whilst on the ship, the rocking of boat had left me with the same symptoms as severe inner ear infection;…
