You may wonder if I’m biased. As the #wombatstraveller Ambassador for wombat’s Hostels, there is no way I’d give an honest review of the wombat’s London, right? Wrong! I loved this hostel, not only is it easily the best hostel in London, it is one of my favourite hostels EVER. And I’ve stayed in a […]
I remember going to the Tower of London when I was a kid, I must have been less than 10 years old so we’re talking maybe 25 years ago (wow that makes me feel old)! The only thing I remember was the beautiful purple velvet crown in the Crown Jewels, and nothing else. So, when […]
I am a sucker for a good view, and for that, you usually have to go up high. However, Venice is full of beautiful vistas from the ground up, so you don’t need to get vertigo while enjoying a beautiful view. Here are my favourite places to visit with the best views in Venice – […]
Gin is the most English of spirits, and one of my favourite tipples! On my recent visit to London as #wombatsTraveller ambassador for wombat’s Hostels, I decided to visit the Beefeater Gin Distillery London, the most famous gin distillery in London.

Budapest is a beautiful city, yet still relatively off the beaten track for many people travelling around Europe. However, the wonderful food, wine, architecture, history and buzzing nightlife in Budapest is more than enough to tempt visitors. Deciding where to stay in Budapest might not be the easiest task, but I’m here to help! If […]
I hadn’t realised that wine was such a big deal in Hungary, but apparently, it is a BIG deal. As I don’t drink beer I was on the look-out for fun things to do in Budapest that don’t involve beer, so I was thrilled when I came across a wine tasting in Budapest, which started […]

The brand-new wombat’s VENICE Mestre […]
I recently went to Venice Italy for the first time, and I fell in love. I admit I had mixed expectations, I wasn’t sure how I would react to the over-tourism, gaudy souvenirs and constant stream of people in gondolas. However, once I’d spent a couple of days exploring the narrow streets, I realised that […]
I adore street art. I’ve seen some incredible street art all over the world, in cities like Belfast, Bogota and Sao Paulo, so checking out the street art was high up on my list of things to do in Budapest. From colourful murals to tiny details that are easily missed, street art in Budapest is […]

From trivial things like no phone credit or poor wi-fi to having your passport stolen or needing medical assistance, we all have travel problems that pop up every now and again. To help you overcome these issues, I’ve put together some […]
