I love my food. Food for me should be an experience, not just something for survival's sake. That's one of the reasons that anytime I travel I like to find out as much as I can about the local cuisine.

Normally when I travel anywhere I don't tend to go on tours. Instead, I prefer to do a little research online and see places on my own schedule. This time in Porto however, I saw a trip that really interested me. It was a walking tour of the city, with the emphasis on viewing much of the street...
So I decided to take my first trip to Porto as I have heard so many positive things about the place.
I got out the good old Kayak app and found a great deal for a return flight from London Stansted to Porto for £44. That's cheaper than going by train to Manchester and back! Although the only...
I had heard a lot about Seville Cathedral or The Cathedral of Saint Mary of the See as it's really called and the Giralda. As I love to find out about the local heritage and history when I travel I decided to take a trip down there to see...

Before I left England, I had...
Hidden just outside the town centre on Camino de los Pinares is a little secret that few tourists know about. The Molino de Inca Botanical Gardens.
Just behind the Aqualand Water Park is this small, beautifully laid out, tranquil botanical feast. Just over 20 minutes walk from the centre...
I felt it was time for another trip, so I logged into Kayak and started to look for somewhere to go. The only rules I laid down was that it had to be somewhere sunny (out went Bilbao) and had to be no more than three hours flying time from the UK.
After a little research, I decided on a...
