Lisbon has officially ruined me…in the best possible way. I don’t know what it is about this city, but something clicked almost instantly. Maybe it’s the way the light hits the buildings or how every street seems to lead to another viewpoint. Maybe it’s the feeling that life here is meant to be lived slowly…even…

Lisbon Day 1: Wandering, Views & Falling a Little in Love
Day one in Lisbon was insane! My only goal for the day was simple: see as much of Lisbon as possible. With the city’s famous hills (and my very real desire to save my legs), I booked a tuk-tuk tour with Get Your Guide – Lisbon: Old Town Tuk-Tuk Tour – Alfama & Scenic Viewpoints…
Lisbon Day 2: the Coast, Sintra & Fairytale Energy
Day two was all about leaving the city behind and chasing a different kind of magic. I joined another Get your Guide tour – From Lisbon: Sintra, Pena Palace, Regaleira, Cabo da Roca, and Cascais – they have different options with different prices. I highly recommend the Regaleira and the exterior of Pena Palace. We…
Lisbon Day 3: Belém, Creativity & Slowing Down
My last day in Lisbon was gentler the kind of day where you soak things in instead of racing through them. I started in Belém, wandering along the river and stopping at Pastéis de Belém for the original custard tarts. Warm, flaky, creamy…exactly as good as everyone says they are. From there, I headed at…
Lisbon: Where to Eat
Lisbon is such a foodie city. 100% a surprise and easily one of the biggest highlights of this trip! I expected beautiful views, tiled buildings and golden light (which, yes, you absolutely get). What I didn’t expect was to eat this well the entire time. From slow mornings with coffee and pastries to seafood and…
Lisbon: Where to Stay
Found my little Lisbon base and as a solo traveler, location was everything. When I booked my stay at Solar dos Poetas, I knew I wanted somewhere central, safe and surrounded by everything I had carefully added to my very full itinerary (because yes…there was definitely planning involved!). Perfectly positioned between Chiado and Bairro Alto,…
Egypt: Not for the Amateur Traveller (Why You Need a Group Tour)
Let me start with the truth:Egypt is not the kind of place you pop into with a backpack, no plan, and a carefree “I’ll just wing it” attitude. In the words of our guide Ash and he was right:“Egypt is not for the amateur traveller.” And after 10 days navigating the country’s glorious chaos, I…
Egypt: 3 Holidays in 1 – Culture, Adventure & Relax
If someone had told me that Egypt would become one of my favourite trips ever, I probably would’ve nodded politely and thought: “Sure, pyramids…sunshine…camels… lovely.” But here I am, writing this from 30,000 feet on my flight home, already planning my return. Because Egypt?Egypt is three holidays in one and an experience you will NEVER…
