Keen to unlock the treasure troves of the Red City, I exchanged grey English weather for Marrakech’s warm light and century-old sights. In little over three hours, the plane descended to reveal a terracotta city overlooked by the snow-capped peaks of the Atlas mountains. Enchanting accommodation Upon arrival, we made our way to our home…

A Travel Guide to Bergen
With my parents having lived in Bergen in their twenties, it has always been a point of reference in their stories and anecdotes, making me feel immediately closer to a city that I had not yet visited. This summer marked the perfect time to explore the places spoken about so fondly during my youth. While…
Schlappin, Klosters-Serneus
Tucked away above the village of Klosters-Dorf lies Schlappin, a peaceful valley with varied walking trails and a lake fit for energetic puppies.

Ibiza’s Suite Life

Unlike its two predecessors, the Ibizan venture is joined by 105 Suites: seven luxurious apartments each accommodating two to four people. Inspired by the French Riviera…
Guide to Valencia
On recommendation from one cool Spanish-speaking señorita and after months of half-hearted attempts at planning a group holiday, we finally decided on a trip to Spain’s east coast for a week of sunshine and sangrias. What we didn’t realise was that we struck gold. Valencia is by no means a tourist-overloaded city where English is…
Paris en août
Wow, it’s been a long time since I last posted on here but it’s been a truly busy year. The highlight of which was the news that I will be spending a year abroad in Paris, a city that I have dreamed of living in for a long time now. After the kerfuffle of setting…
