2020 has been a bad year for travel in general. Back in January, many of us had our breaks and getaways all planned out. Many of us were planning on jetting away overseas and enjoying some sun, sea and sand in far off locations. Chances are, by now, these plans have been cancelled. Many holiday providers, flight companies and other companies are no longer allowing these trips to go ahead due to travel restrictions that have been put in place as a result of the coronavirus and Covid-19 pandemic.

​​Everyone dreams of enjoying a nice vacation even if it is just for a short time. If leaving the city and going on a road trip is not an option, then consider a respite right in your own city.

In the height of summer, when its too hot to even sit still... we escape the sweltering heat and head to the  breezy beautiful coast of Atlanterra. It a favourite among the locals, for obvious reasons! in my view, one of the most beautiful beaches in Andalusia...I say "one of"  because I have yet to see them all! 

Sundays were made for luxuriation and indulgence with the one you love (that can and should be yourself) and if there is another you love... well that's just the icing on the cake isn't it! 
Speaking of cake, the Hub's and I spend this Sunday doing all of the relaxing things we love. Gardening, sunbathing and eating cake. 

Almost every wedding has a DJ. It’s a relatively cheap upgrade for your wedding entertainment (at least, compared to some of the things you’ll have to pay for!) and a skilled DJ can rock the venue and make it ten times more memorable. So if you want to pick the perfect DJ for your needs, here are a couple of key questions that you need to ask them before hiring.

I realised that I haven't shared any of our guest rooms on my blog and what good a time as any to share them than while we are in lock down and I have some time to photograph them! ​

I mentioned in my previous post that I'd been spending most of my time during lock down cleaning, tiding and re organising our villa as it seems most of you guys are too. Seeing people posting on social media about how they are investing in their homes has been really inspiring to me. 

In the post-pandemic world, we may not be as financially well off as we are now. However, this shouldn’t mean that you cannot enjoy your big day. You have been looking forward to getting married (finally), and nothing should prevent you from beginning the next chapter of your life with your soulmate. Getting married on a budget doesn’t mean foregoing the flowers, having a smaller cake, or going for a hand-me-down wedding dress. You simply need to know where to look to find excellent deals and set yourself a workable budget. Take a look at how you can get hitched without breaking the bank.

Like most of us during the Corona virus pandemic, I'm left during lock down to dream of the travel that we lost and the travel that we will do when all of this is over.  Its always my favourite places that I wanderlust for... Provence, Italy and Marrakesh are all front of mind.
