    Edinburgh Airport!

    July 5, 2015 in Scotland ⋅ ☀️ 10 °C

    I love Edinburgh, so it was a tad bittersweet after so long away from the city to be so close and not able to go into the town I consider home.
    Thanks Mum firgetting up so early to drop me off!

  • Rome!

    July 10, 2015 in Italy ⋅ 🌙 27 °C

    So, first time in a gelateria (and properly out and about in Italy). The lack of orderly queue is quite intimidating. It's a battle to be served!

  • Pisa

    July 17, 2015 in Italy ⋅ 🌙 26 °C

    Arrived kind of late in the evening and it was slightly daunting to find the hostel with no way of double checking the address or map but made it here swiftly and finally have internet working! I'm Happy the hostel is busy but too chicken to make contact yet. Of course, i'm looking forward to seeing the sights!Read more

  • Lucca

    July 19, 2015 in Italy ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C

    Rented a bike and had the most wonderful time cycling round the old city perimeter, then inbetween stunning historical buildings and through tiny winding streets.
    I, of course, had gelato for lunch.

  • Star-lit dip.

    July 19, 2015 in Italy ⋅ 🌙 25 °C

    Had a fabulous pizza for tea then, driving home, I noticed the stars looked amazing due to the lack of moon. I Dragged Johanna out to the pool for a better look and couldn't resist a swim!
