A year after falling in love with Southern India, I returned — this time 10 weeks pregnant — to explore the north of the country

Northern India felt completely different. More chaotic, intense, colourful, spiritual, and confronting all at once. But that’s what made it unforgettable.

✨ Highlights:
• — sensory overload in the best possible way
• — finally seeing the Taj Mahal in real life
• — pink streets, palaces, and endless colour
• — calm lakes and rooftop sunsets
• — the most powerful and emotional place I’ve ever visited
• & — mountains, monasteries, and complete peace

India constantly surprises me with its contrasts — chaos and calm, beauty and hardship, life and death existing side by side.

Travelling there while pregnant made every moment feel even more vivid, emotional, and unforgettable. One of those trips that stays with you forever ❤️

Experience a clifftop stay in Saint Lucia

Perched above a secluded sandy cove, Cap Maison is Saint Lucia's only Relais & Châteaux property, known for its intimate feel and exceptional dining. Meals at The Cliff at Cap and beachside Naked Fisherman are included, while suites feature rooftop terraces, private pools, or outdoor Jacuzzis. There's also the resort’s signature Champagne Zip Line at Rock Maison to try at least once.

Saint Lucia is my favourite of the Caribbean Islands - From the Pitons to the beaches and rainforest views, it’s pure paradise.

I've been getting lots of questions about ETIAS lately, especially from those travelling this summer ☀️✈️

To keep things simple — ETIAS is a new travel authorisation (similar to the US ESTA) that will be required for UK passport holders visiting countries like Italy and other parts of Europe. It’s not quite live yet, and timings are still being finalised, which is why there’s a bit of confusion at the moment.

Just a little reassurance… when you book with me, you don’t need to worry about keeping up with all of this yourself. I’ll send you all the latest travel requirements — including any visa or entry updates — around 3–4 weeks before you travel, so you know exactly what needs to be done and when.

No stress, no guesswork — just everything taken care of ✔️

If you’re unsure how this might affect your trip, feel free to drop me a message 😊

❄️ The National Park Nobody Talks About… But Absolutely Should ❄️

Everyone has Yellowstone, Banff or Yosemite on their bucket list… but somehow Kenai Fjords National Park quietly sits in the background being completely spectacular.

Think towering glaciers crashing into the ocean, whales surfacing beside your boat, sea otters floating through icy fjords and mountains that look like they belong in another world.

And then there’s Bear Glacier — a huge, electric-blue glacier surrounded by floating icebergs that honestly doesn’t look real. You can kayak among the ice, cruise past it by boat or just sit there wondering why more people aren’t talking about this place.

This is Alaska at its wildest and most untouched. No huge crowds. No queues for viewpoints. Just dramatic scenery, wildlife everywhere and the kind of landscapes that make you put your phone down for a minute.

If you’re looking for a bucket-list trip that still feels undiscovered… this is it. 🐋🧊🏔️

Best in the Summer

🐋 June–July
Best for long daylight hours, whale watching, puffins and lush green scenery. Temperatures are usually around 10–18°C and you can experience almost endless daylight.

🧊 August
A great balance of wildlife, fewer crowds and beautiful conditions for kayaking around Bear Glacier. You may also start to see autumn colours appearing later in the month.

Outside of summer, much of the park becomes difficult to access due to snow and limited boat operations, so winter visits are more challenging and suited to experienced travellers looking for remote adventure.

Traveling with kids matters more than you might think. They might not remember every detail—but somehow they’ll remember everything at the most inconvenient moment later 😅. Cairo loves to tell people how she's chief navigator and I get everyone lost!

From snack negotiations, emergency toilet stops, (Usually for their dad, my third child!) and carrying 17 things you swear you didn’t pack, you’re actually nourishing family bonds (disguised as complete chaos). At the same time, you’re giving them real exposure to new experiences—new places, foods, cultures, and the shocking discovery that not everywhere does chicken nuggets and chips.

Without even realizing it, they’re learning:
• Adaptability — new places, routines, and surprises
• Confidence and independence— handling small challenges on their own
• Curiosity — discovering different cultures, foods, and people
• Problem-solving — figuring things out on the go
• Empathy — understanding lives different from their own

And yes, it’s messy and unpredictable—but it also brings you closer in ways staying home just can’t.

One day, it won’t be the “perfect” moments you remember… it’ll be the slightly chaotic, laugh-about-it-later ones you survived together ✈️
