Getting your holiday hype on
A recent You Gov poll found that only 31% off people get excited when packing for a holiday, and that, once they are there, 1 in 3 woman spend time every day worrying about their weight.

Before Joe was born, I was lucky enough to spend a lot of time traveling, and loved the excitement of discovering new places. I visited lots of different and diverse places, from the Art Capitals of Europe, to the ultra modern skyscrapers of Dubai and Kuala Lumpur, to the blissful idyllic beaches of Thailand, the land of smiles.
