Summer Travel: Join The #Vanlife
Yesterday I posted about how the coming of Spring, and lighter nights and warmer days, automatically turns our thoughts to our Summer holidays. But the coming of Summer doesn’t have to mean that we have to go abroad in order to escape from the rat race. Brexit, which led to the weakening of our pound led many people to looking more closely at the British Isles when it comes to Summer vacation – no need for passports, currency, holiday jabs or those lovely long queues at the airport as they bring in yet another way to scan your passport. The British Isles are full of natural stunning beauty, and with…

Travel Focus – Wonderful Singapore
Continuing with my travel series of wonderful places to visit I am turning my attention to Singapore, the jewel in Malaysia’s crown. Singapore is one of the best places I have visited, with gleaming pavements, a ban on chewing gum, and old colonial style buildings carefully meshing into an ultra modern city.

My Favourite Holiday Moment
When our thoughts turn to Spring, a lot of people also turn their thoughts to their Summer holiday. Whether you are planning a long haul trip, something with a short flight, or even a UK break, a holiday is a time to create wonderful new memories, and our choice of destination can often be influenced by previous, fabulous holidays. I have yet to book for this year, but have been browsing and have often found a cheaper deal here. One of the places we have been considering is Cyprus, where we not only spent our holiday over the last couple of years, but also watched my little brother get married.…
