Experiencing the Beginner Brewing Course at London’s UBREW

June 2, 2016 Inspiration, london, Nightlife, Pubs, Quirky, United Kingdom

  A great idea is often born out of necessity; at least, that was the case for the UBREW founders Matt and Wilf. In a post-recession Britain, the avid beer drinker is turning to home brewing to create their own booze, harking back to a time honoured tradition the nation once held before the arrival Read Post

Review of Novaya Carry-on Backpack by Arcido

May 22, 2016 Inspiration, Travel musings

  Everyone knows bringing hold luggage on short flights is pretty much pointless, especially given the reasonable cabin allowance you get for free and fact that hold luggage can cost you almost as much as your seat. In the interest of fighting costs, passengers have resorted to all sorts of creativity: tough wheelie bags made Read Post

Why You Should Actually Visit Hull

Why You Should Actually Visit Hull

May 17, 2016 Inspiration, United Kingdom

  As a Brit, it’s so easy to believe the common conception of a place without really forming your own opinion. So when Kasha and I informed people we would be visiting Kingston Upon Hull, the raised eyebrows, quizzical looks and aghast reactions we received said it all; Hull, it would seem, is not the kind Read Post

6 Reasons to Visit Lincoln: The Royal Cathedral City

April 4, 2016 Inspiration, United Kingdom

  Growing up, my parents took my brothers and I on holidays across the UK, but one particular attraction was always a must on the itinerary, castles.

Why Travel Has Changed For Me

Why Travel Has Changed For Me

March 22, 2016 Inspiration, Travel musings

  When I first went travelling I believed every ounce of travel rhetoric, that travel would change me, that it would be the most important thing I could do with my time and that I would be a lesser person without the experience.

February 10, 2016 Inspiration, United Kingdom

  Tree houses hidden in deep forests, house sized yurts, converted courthouses and seaside lookouts; the UK has some of the most gorgeous and unique accommodation you can find anywhere in the world.

February 4, 2016 France, Inspiration

  A port city in northern Normandy, Le Havre is a place that will truly surprise you. Being a popular ferry crossing point, many people simply pass through the city, onward south towards warmer climes or toward the delights of Brittany.
