Why You Should Follow Our Travel Instagram


Hey Reader,

We don’t spend a huge amount of time on social media, but it’s something we’re working on so our followers can see more of the everyday.

That got us thinking…are you following us on Instagram?

If not, we’d love to be pals/chums/friends/whatever you want to be.

We try to share moments that never make it into a blog post or travel mishaps we'd rather laugh about than write 2,000 words on (though we are a bit on and off with posting...sorry!!).

See you on Insta/IG/whatever-you-want-to-call-it.

This may sound super obvious, but when we know we’re visiting somewhere, we literally just zoom in on Google Maps and click on random places. This is how we found: Loch Inver Larder while driving the NC500 in Scotland (best rhubarb pie of our lives) Ammuccamu Milazzo in...

Hi Reader, We’re back together in England and have officially made it to Dorset, where we’re spending some much awaited quality time together and enjoying staying in a cute coastal town for nearly a week. Which brings us to something we’ve been thinking (and writing) about a lot lately: settling down 🤭😮🤯. OBVIOUSLY it's not like we’re never going to travel again. We’re literally on a trip right now. But we do want things like a nice espresso machine, and a good vacuum, and cool rugs. Things...

Hello Dear Readers, Julia here. Tomorrow is a very exciting day: I’m flying back to England and can stay for good (actually, until I extend my visa in 2.5 years)!
