🌍 The best souvenirs aren't things—they're moments like this

Watching the balloons emerge from the valleys and drift silently across the landscape felt almost surreal. One minute there was nothing there, the next they were appearing from behind the rock formations and floating overhead. (This one may have come a little closer than expected! 😅)

It's strange to think this was only two weeks ago. Now it's back to emails, school runs, meetings, and the usual rhythm of everyday life.

But that's the thing about travel. The trip may end, but the memories have a way of staying with you. The places that surprise you, the moments you didn't plan for, and the experiences shared with the people who matter most ❤️

✨ This memory is made.

❓Where will you make your next one?

💚 Environment Day 💚

Want to travel more sustainably? 🚆 These iconic train journeys belong on every bucket list...✨

Train travel offers a slower, more immersive journey while helping to reduce your environmental impact 🌍

From crossing the Peruvian Andes aboard the luxurious Andean Explorer, to winding through the Canadian Rockies on the Rocky Mountaineer, some of the world's most unforgettable travel experiences happen on rails.

✨ Iconic train journeys to add to your bucket list:
🚂 Andean Explorer, Peru
🚂 Rocky Mountaineer, Canada
🚂 Golden Eagle Danube Express, Europe
🚂 Northern Belle, UK
🚂 Rovos Rail, Southern Africa
🚂 Venice Simplon-Orient-Express
🚂 Bernina Express, Switzerland
🚂 Jungfrau Railway, Switzerland

Sometimes the journey really is just as spectacular as the destination.

Which rail adventure would be at the top of your list? 👇

Throw back Thursday...

Today's first Test match of the summer has taken me back to Lords cricket Ground 2023. My first live sporting experience - I didn't know what to expect, and it was an eventful three days with many a story to tell! 🤭

Little did I know that I would be arranging worldwide travel and running my own travel business then! 😲

Now I am looking forward to arranging a trip to South Africa for the Cape Town Tour test experience for some special clients 💛

Epic cricket, luxury travel, and once‑in‑a-lifetime moments in Cape Town🏏
They will step into the ultimate hosted sports escape with my fully curated Cape Town Test Tour experience, including:

✨ Luxury accommodation and all transfers throughout
✨ Fully hosted tour with former England captain Mike Gatting & dedicated hosting team
✨ Hospitality tickets for ALL FIVE DAYS of South Africa v England at Newlands in a private suite
✨ Unlimited premium drinks, 3‑course lunch & afternoon tea each match day
✨ Exclusive events, including Welcome Drinks in Cape Town, “State of Play” evening with special cricket guests & a Farewell Dinner
✨ On‑the‑ground support and personalised concierge for restaurant reservations, tours & experiences

🇯🇵 Japan is one of the world's most sought-after destinations right now—and it's easy to see why.

From ancient temples and neon-lit cities to snow-covered mountains, cherry blossoms, and incredible food, Japan offers something magical in every season. ✨

📅 When is the best time to visit?

🎿 January – Winter Wonderland
Head north to Hokkaido for some of the best skiing and snowboarding in the world. Think powder snow, hot springs, snow festivals, and postcard-perfect scenery. ❄️⛷️

🌸 April – Cherry Blossom Season
Japan transforms into a sea of pink as Sakura season arrives. Stroll through parks, enjoy traditional picnics, and witness one of the most beautiful natural spectacles on Earth. 🌸🌸

🌿 June – Vibrant Gardens & Green Landscapes
Lush gardens burst into colour, hydrangeas bloom, and the countryside is at its most vibrant. It's a wonderful time to experience Japan's quieter side. 🌺🌳

🥾 July – Hike Mount Fuji
The official climbing season begins, offering the chance to conquer Japan's most iconic peak. Watch the sunrise from above the clouds and enjoy breathtaking views across the country. 🌄🏔️

🍁 September – Beat the Crowds
Enjoy warm temperatures, fewer tourists, and fantastic value while exploring iconic sights from Kyoto's temples to Tokyo's bustling neighbourhoods. 🚄✨

🏙️ November – Explore Tokyo & Autumn Colours
Cool, comfortable weather makes this the perfect time for city exploration. Discover Tokyo's energy, incredible cuisine, and stunning autumn foliage. 🍂🍜🌆

Whether you're seeking adventure, culture, cuisine, or natural beauty, there's never a bad time to visit Japan—just the perfect season for your travel style. 🇯🇵❤️

I have just travelled through the EU with the new EES system and still ended up running for my connection… 😅

So, here are my top 3 tips to make things smoother next time you fly via an EU country ✈️

1/ Arrive early - 3hrs before departure is the recommended time allowance

2/ Have boarding and passport ready to present

3/ Have a charged power bank in case your battery gets low on your phone

4/ Water/drinks and snacks!

Happy travels ✨
