Before I ever visited, Montenegro had been on my bucket list for ten years. I remember seeing the fjord-like Bay of Kotor and towering mountains above quaint cobbled streets on a travel documentary as a kid, and thinking it looked like something out of one of my storybooks! So when I finally got the chance…
Most travellers visiting Norway head straight to the famous western fjords like Geirangerfjord and Naerøyfjord. But far north in the Arctic is Trollfjord – one of the most dramatic fjords in the entire country! But given its remote location, figuring out how to visit Trollfjord isn’t always straightforward – especially if you’re travelling solo. I…
Montenegro is one of the most beautiful (and underrated!) countries in Europe, but there are a few Montenegro travel tips I really wish someone had told me before my first solo trip. On paper, planning a trip here looks super simple. Right? The country is small, everyone raves about Kotor as the perfect base, and…
Just outside Bergen is one of western Norway’s most dramatic fjords – and you can reach it in less than an hour by boat! During my cruise, the light was low and moody, mist rolled between the cliffs, and we sailed silently past sleepy fishing villages and underneath tumbling waterfalls. It was an unforgettable experience!…
Montenegro’s coastline gets most of the attention, with its medieval old towns, sparkling bays and sailing trips across the Bay of Kotor.

If you’ve got 3 days in Stockholm and don’t want to waste a single one of them, you’re in the right place! I’ve explored Stockholm as a solo female traveller and completely fell in love with it. In fact, it’s my favourite city I’ve ever visited solo in Europe! But I also learned quickly which…
Montenegro may be a tiny (and underrated!) Balkan country, but choosing the best places to visit in Montenegro isn’t as easy as you might think. From medieval old towns and the fjord-like Bay of Kotor, to mountainous national parks and hidden gem villages that never appear on most itineraries, it’s super easy to miss some…
When you picture visiting Norway, you’re probably imagining dramatic fjords, tiny fishing villages and the Northern Lights. But tucked along the country’s spectacularly rugged coastline is one of Norway’s most colourful and underrated cities: Trondheim. With rows of bright wooden houses lining the river, cobbled streets, Viking history and a relaxed atmosphere, Trondheim feels completely…
Leeds Castle in spring feels like stepping into a storybook, with mist rising off the moat, daffodils bright against the castle walls, and baby geese taking their first wobbly steps! So if you’re wondering whether it’s worth visiting “the world’s loveliest castle” at this time of year – and how to plan your own perfect…
Gibraltar is one of the most unexpected places to visit in Europe. It’s not quite Spain. Not quite Britain. But a tiny British Overseas Territory perched at the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula — with wild macaques and panoramic views across the Mediterranean and Africa. I first came to Gibraltar on a short solo…
