York Travel Diary

After my visit to Manchester, I hopped on the train to York. Like Manchester, I had never visited York but I had grand Jane Austen dreams the minute York was added to my itinerary. It’s been a dream of mine to visit the English countryside and this is the closest I would get to it. I couldn’t wait!

A First-Timer’s Visit to Glasgow & the Scottish Highlands

I’m really not surprised that I loved every minute of my time in Scotland. After my charming visit to Edinburgh, I was excited to see what this first-timer’s visit to Glasgow and the Highlands had in store. I think what surprised me the most is how easy it is to see so much of the country. After arriving in Glasgow, we explored the city for the day and then head out to the Loch Lomond and the Highlands the next morning. It was all a very easy day trip, made especially easy by our tour guide, Andy, and her Mini Kilt Tours.

London Food Diary: vol 1

Believe it or not, I went to London immediately after my Iceland trip. 

It’s rare that I get to just hang when I’m visiting a city. Typically I’m on a mission to see everything, do everything, eat everything, which is pretty much an impossible task. Since this was my fifth trip to the motherland, I primarily focused on the later… eat everything.
