I have seen a total solar eclipse!

And just like that it is over. Two minutes to experience something unique and to remind us all that the universe can be a magical place to live in. As an astronomy lover, seeing a total solar eclipse has been a bucket list item of mine (even a partial eclipse would have done). After the eclipse in 2024, I searched when and where future ones who take place. When I knew the next one was in Europe just two years away, I knew I had to be somewhere to see totality.

Originally I looked to stay in Iceland but when that soon became unviable I looked in Spain and chose Santander. Booked six 8 months in advance, I have had a long time to wait for those two minutes. The wait was worth it. Just when the forecast was clear to see totality, clouds came over just 20 minutes before. At this point I thought it wasn't meant to be, and after all this time I could have stayed in London to see a partial eclipse. However, a miracle, a break in the clouds with five minutes to go - just long enough to see the total eclipse I had been waiting for. Everyone around me were is awe and so was I. For two minutes, it felt like the whole world was looking at this single astronomical event with amazement. No hate, just love. The universe was saying hello and we were there to hear it and wave back.

Is it just me or can any natural green make anywhere look better? Maybe not if you are lost in woodland but in all other settings 😂

"Nothing beats the adventure of exploration".

When I was in Salisbury in May, the weather was windy and rainy. Thankfully though it got better to the point that in the evening the sun was shining brightly as it set on the horizon. I thought I had to get out and see Salisbury in such bright weather and I was very happy I did. Gone was the gloom and the rain.

Hello everyone. I've not posted for while but I am back now that I have new photos to share. Hope you are all well? At the end of May I started solo travelling around the UK again beginning with Salisbury. Doesn't the cathedral look amazing. Did you know that it has the tallest spire in the United Kingdom and weighs 6,500 tons!!

Have you visited Salisbury cathedral?

Manhattan, New York. A view from the top of the Empire State Building. Not a bad view is it? The views from Rockafeller Centre aren't bad either but this higher vantage point is better in my opinion. On a sunny day, you can see everything in this huge dense city. No wonder it feels like the top of the world. I understand why king kong climbed up there now 😂.

Now we are firmly in springtime I feel optimistic. Exploring new places in the UK and returning to work at the office to finally see colleagues are all on the horizon over the next few weeks and months. Through all the difficulties that a third lockdown in the UK has brought I have found the first quarter of the year positive for my mindset, routine and purpose. In the second quarter of the year, I'm excited to bring these positives into the normality of travelling to work five days a week and solo travelling again.

How is everyone feeling now it is spring?

Solo Travel - Venice

In the summer of 2018, I solo travelled to the famous city of Venice. I had visited the city once before when I was younger and always remembered it for being so busy. By being such a lure for tourists this hadn't changed by 2018. After checking in I remember heading straight back out of the hotel and started walking without any care for where I was going. I just wanted to explore and use my instincts with the free time I had. I did use boats a few times whilst there but walking is a necessity in Venice. There are restaurants everywhere, many bridges to cross and a whole lot of beautiful buildings to see. In the Italian summer sun, Venice is a gorgeous city to visit.

Have you been to Venice?

Has anyone got holidays booked for this year yet? As schools are set to re-open tomorrow it marks the first step on the road out of lockdown in England and hope of normality rekindles. Time is really motoring on this year and with heading into the second week of March the subsequent months don't feel too far away.

We've all dreamt of what we will do when restrictions lift and as each day passes we get closer to the reality of doing the things we love most. That beach you want to be on, you'll be there sooner than you think 😊.

Using my time and passion I am dedicated to helping you find new places and experiences on holiday using my knowledge as an independent travel agent and a solo traveller. Message me to discuss how I can help book that holiday or trip you've been thinking of.
