  • Here come the girls💃🏻 I’ve only just recovered from my busy, incredible few days in Barbados but I still miss it every day! As well as those absolutely stunning beaches, I discovered the islands unexpected wild side and met some amazing people along the way💕🇧🇧 I love my job! #LimeBarbadosFam
  • El Nido | One of the best things about staying on Miniloc Island is their tours. On the morning we left, we woke up at 5.30 to take the sunrise Small Lagoon tour and being the only group there as the sun came up was so special - I even saw a ray as we were getting into our kayaks😍 #SmallLagoon #SmallLagoonElNido
  • El Nido | {media discount} I’ll never forget staying at Miniloc Island Resort 😍 We had just one night to enjoy the infinity pool, private beach, sustainably-farmed food and eco friendly facilities so we relaxed to our hearts content, reading, snorkelling and stargazing💕 I can only dream of going back one day #MinilocIsland
  • El Nido | {gifted tour} In all my travel dreams, seeing El Nido’s lagoons was right at the top but I never thought I’d actually make it. Our boat trip wasn’t the best: disorganised with little communication but as soon as we hopped into our kayaks at the Big Lagoon, we wouldn’t have changed our decision to visit for the world. The water really is as clear and blue as I imagined, and we found several secluded spots where the only sounds were the swish of our paddles and the sound of birds. This area is also hugely popular, making new restrictions on visiting the Big and Small Lagoons sad but totally necessary to protect their natural beauty.
  • El Nido | After our rainy last morning in Boracay, we flew to El Nido where we were immediately amazed by the Lio Estate. Past the golden beaches, you can see the famous limestone cliffs and the sunrise is SO beautiful there. On that first night though, it was all about an aubergine burger, gelato and live guitar music on the beach💃🏻
  • Boracay | I wasn’t sure what to expect from Boracay. The island had been closed to tourists for six months in 2018, branded a ‘cesspool’ from beach parties and hotel pollution. But now, new rules and regulations on both hotels and tourists aim to keep the environment clean🌱 We stayed in the quiet Station 3 area of White Beach and it was a total dream. White sand and turquoise water for days, with very little foot traffic to interrupt our jet-lagged lazing around. After venturing down to D’Mall in Station 2, it was clear to see the overdevelopment that had been spoken about online. Starbucks, Subway and KFC on the beach, hotels built super close together and so many people! We skedaddled back to our quiet area of beach pretty quickly where we ate dinner and got caught in a tiny bar during a storm. Cheers 🍹
  • Three months on and I’ve got so many Philippines pictures left to post🙈 side note - where does the time go?! So I’m thinking of a mini series where I share a photo from each day of my two week trip and tell you exactly what we got up to on each day. Let me know if you’d like to see it 🙏🏼
  • One of my favourite things about living in Liverpool is going for summer evening walks with this view 😍 I’ve also had some exciting news - @teletextholidays have named me one of their top 10 budget travel bloggers! I’ll pop the link in my bio if you fancy checking out my fellow bloggers on the list but I’m just over here being surprised, happy and grateful 🙏🏼
  • Obsessed with everything in this photo🌿 I’m addicted to these shampoo and conditioner bars from @bohol_beefarm_official - does stocking up count as a reason to book another trip to the Philippines? I’d love recommendations of any other brands you think are fab 🌱
  • Attempting to recreate this tasty brunch in my morning rush to distract from yesterday’s Game of Thrones stress. I watched The Long Night twice and I think its permanently raised my blood pressure - anyone else? 😂
  • So many years of friendship and hundreds of MSN chats leading to meeting your second beautiful son and being part of your wedding day @paz376 😍👨‍👩‍👧‍👦
  • You can’t beat this city in the sun☀️
