📍 Cala Millor, Majorca

I'm back in the office today after five blissful days soaking up the sun, sea, and strawberry daiquiris with my family. Early morning swims at sunrise offered the perfect moment of calm to completely unwind — and now, I'm feeling refreshed and ready to help you plan your own relaxing escape.

If Cala Millor happens to be your next stop (and I highly recommend it!), here are a few of my personal favourites from the trip to get you started:

𝕎𝕙𝕖𝕣𝕖 𝕎𝕖 𝕊𝕥𝕒𝕪𝕖𝕕

🛎️ Bahia Hipotels – An adults-only haven with warm, friendly service, delicious food (plenty of variety!), and a beautiful pool area lined with junior suites and sea-view balconies.

My highlight? A private path that takes you straight from your poolside lounger to the sea. Heaven.

Travelling with family? Just a short beach-front stroll away, Hipotels also offers a fantastic family-friendly resort with inclusive stays and activities for all ages.

𝔹𝕒𝕣𝕤 & 𝔻𝕚𝕟𝕚𝕟𝕘

🍓 After trying quite a few frozen daiquiris, it’s hard to pick a favourite — but for a laid-back afternoon in the sun, Sa Caleta was perfect.

🌮 Just steps away, The Coconut Shack is a must-visit for an ice-cold cocktail and the best chicken tacos.

🐙 For dinner, Ame treated us to a gorgeous octopus paella, elegant ambiance, and smooth background saxophone – an unforgettable evening.

🍹 Playa Hotels also hosts a lively beachside bar with a wide cocktail selection and uninterrupted ocean views. Great vibes, day or night.

✨Yesterday I turned 23! Which feels like a pretty good reason to look back and reflect over some of my travel highlights since starting my business back in November 2023 when I was just 21 years old...

In the past 18 months I've been lucky enough to visit 10 new destinations, Amsterdam, Prague, Malta, Montenegro, Paris x2, Berlin, Madrid, Edinburgh, Tenerife and Copenhagen! Each and every trip has enabled me to fall in love with travel beyond the photos, experiencing new cultures, indulging in cuisines I'd never try at home and its ultimately given me a new, more positive outlook on life!

I also had the chance to experience my first ever river cruise back in March, a trip that was made possible by being part of the TC community, all be it it was also the trip that reminded me to always be prepared with motion sickness tablets in future...

In just a few days i'll be headed back to Majorca with my family (the first time I will have ever been abroad with them!) Truly taking 'with us, it's personal' to a new meaning as their travel agent, packer, airport concierge and the rest🌍

From attending last years CLIA conference in Southampton with our amazing suppliers, TCs and of course the amazing girlys from all walks of the travel industry, to meeting up with other agents at out TC mini conference in Birmingham and of course getting glam for the gala dinner at our yearly conference in Manchester ... the lesson is when you work in travel ... you'll be travelling all over.

I've grown from a journalism graduate to a travel blogger with real readers and connections, photo's of the beach have turned to numerous videos of food, hotel tours and attractions and my business is heading in a direction that truly reflects my love for adventure.

This year I've got a few more exciting trips to come, from exploring country music in Texas to taste testing Beignet in New Orleans and a few more European cities to add to the list too. Non of which would be possible without your support for my business!

As a self-confessed city break addict, I never miss the chance for a 48-hour escape. But no matter how fulfilling the trip, I always find myself staring longingly at the airport departure boards, wishing I were jetting off somewhere new instead of heading back to the UK. So, to help banish the Sunday blues once and for all, I’ve crafted the perfect extended city break itinerary — one that ticks off seven incredible cities in just under two weeks.

✨ Twelve nights

✨ Seven cities

✨ One Interrail pass

✨ Thirteen unforgettable days

Your journey begins with an early Eurostar from London to Paris, giving you two full days to soak up the City of Light. Whether you're diving into its rich history with museum-hopping or simply indulging in flaky pastries and French wine on a sunlit terrace, you're in for a dreamy start. Rest your head at the Mercure Paris Butte Montmartre, perfectly located for exploring the charm of Montmartre.

Next stop: Amsterdam! Hop on a morning train and arrive in time to start two days of discovery. Meander along the canals, explore the city’s lively neighborhoods, and embrace its vibrant culture. You'll be staying at the WestCord Fashion Hotel, a stylish retreat after a day of exploring iconic landmarks.

From Amsterdam, speed through the countryside to the dynamic city of Berlin. The next forty-eight hours will be packed with history — from remnants of the Berlin Wall to powerful museums and moving memorials. Berlin’s energy is infectious and its tails unforgettable.

Next, Fall in love with Prague's picturesque streets and stunning architecture. With a cosy room at the Michelangelo Grand Hotel, you're perfectly placed to experience a traditional Czech beer spa before you leave!

The Danube calls! Your next adventure awaits in Vienna, — think prosecco on your French balcony at Hotel Vision, city views shimmering under golden-hour light. From classical concerts to coffeehouse culture, Vienna is pure magic.

Your journey continues downriver to Budapest. Spend two nights capturing its grandeur — from thermal baths and ruin bars to hauntingly beautiful memorials. Indulge in local treats (bottomless chimney cakes anyone?) and soak in every view of this spectacular city.

Your final day brings you to Bratislava, a hidden gem just a short train ride away. With 24 hours to wander its charming old town and reflect over a warm Trdelník, it’s the perfect close to a whirlwind adventure. One direct flight home from Slovakia’s capital, and your European escape ends as seamlessly as it began.

💫 Thousands of photos snapped.

💫 Countless local delicacies devoured.

💫 Seven cities. One unforgettable journey.

Bon voyage!
