5 Reasons Why I Love Amsterdam | QueenBeady

When I (often) discuss my love for Amsterdam I am quite frequently met with a glazed expression and the question, “of all the places in the world, Amsterdam?” and my answer is and always will be, YES. I have travelled to Amsterdam numerous times over the years with Mr C and I have also visited as a young child on countless occassions to visit family friends in Holland. It feels like I should have been born there. I feel so familiar with the destination that I’d happily walk the streets on my own, on a night. That can’t be said for various towns & cities in the UK. Not that I have to explain myself, but I thought if I could persuade you all with my 5 reasons why I love Amsterdam, you might just all come round…

My Travel Bucket List * | QueenBeady

If there is one thing in life that I thoroughly recommend that anyone do, it would be simple. Travel. T R A V E L. Travel close to home, head across the waters, but make sure you travel outside of your own little bubble. For me, it gave me so much more confidence. I’m not talking about quitting my job and travelling the world (but lets face it, given the choice I think I know I would definitely pack up & go.) I’m just talking about getting on a plane for a weekend, a week or even two and exploring lands that you never normally would. I’ve got a run down of some of the places that I am dying to travel to and ClickStay makes it easier than ever to search for accommodation too.

“I would rather own little & see the world than own the world and see little of it.” – An unknown person so very wisely said.

5 Travel Destinations I Fell in Love With | QueenBeady

Travel has always been a huge part of my life, from the ages of 17 – 24 I was a travel agent which meant I had access to a lot of travel deals and amazing holiday bargains that sometimes I found a little too hard to ignore. I thought seen as I haven’t documented a lot of my travel pre this blog, that I would share 5 of my top experiences and travel destinations with you.

El Dorado Seaside Suites by Karisma | QueenBeady

I don’t know about you, but I know when I’m planning a holiday I like to search and search for hours for our next trip. As an ex-travel agent of 7 years you’d think it’d be something I would be bored of but I’m not. Our trip to Mexico took a lot of careful planning before hitting book. We were spending a lot of money & I wanted to make sure that our only beach holiday of the year was going to be a good one. Whilst James & I are happy to head to any hotel and make the holiday the best it can possibly be, with somewhere like Mexico the choice is vast and we wanted it to be a little bit special if we were heading all that way. Eventually after weeks of deliberating we decided that the El Dorado Seaside Suites by Karisma, Mexico was the one for us. We booked through Thomson Holidays as there was a massive £400 saving & it meant we could experience the Thomson Dreamliner too.
