Don’t miss…September travel experiences
This month’s inspo is less about September in particular. And more about inspiring you to get out in the world again. Not since February 2020 has the world been so accessible to us all and it feels me with joy to be recommending destinations without Covid caveats again. We never can tell when or if it will rear its ugly head again, but for now I say grab that passport and skedaddle!
Don’t miss…July travel experiences
July is the busiest month of the year for air travel. Sound appealing? Nah. But if you’re tied to school holidays, or desperate for a bit of summer sun without heading to the ends of the earth, you might not have much choice about packing your bags in July. But you don’t need to follow every one else. So here’s our pick of July paths a little less travelled…
Don’t miss…June travel experiences
June is full of promise. Its usually the first month we can confidently leave the house without a coat, the evenings are long, and the prospect of a long hazy summer is still ahead of us. Its also your last chance for a couple of months to escape the country without the masses in tow. So what are you waiting for?
Don’t miss…May travel experiences
May is shoulder season for many destinations across the world…the perfect sweet spot between the low season (which is normally quite for a reason) and high season when the crowds rush in. This is the time to celebrate the return of warmer weather, top up the tan before the legs come out for summer and to bank a trip before everyone else heads away.
Don’t miss…April travel experiences
Don’t make the same mistake twice. If you missed out on a festive break, get ahead of the crowds now and book your Easter getaway. Its a wonderful time of year to travel and there are fabulous spots all over the world for you to pick from.
Don’t miss…March travel experiences
Winter is long every year…but Easter is particularly late next year. So if you can’t wait until late April for an escape, plan something epic for March. Whether you’re shedding your clothes and heading for the beach, or just peeling off a few layers for a spring time city break, this is the time of year for new beginnings and exploring new places.
Far from the maddening crowds…
We’re slowly getting our confidence in travel back. The world is starting to open up again and we’re itching to get out there and explore again. It’s baby steps…but like everything in life we need a goal. And I can’t think of a better goal than aiming to find yourself in one of these incredible places at some point in your life.
Don’t miss…February travel experiences
February is the shortest month of the year but it can also feel like the longest. The only way to make it whizz by is to hop on a train, plane, boat or into your car and head off for an adventure. Here are my top picks for you this month…happy holiday planning!
