    How to Travel with just Hand Luggage | QueenBeady

    Pack Light Amara

    If you had told me that in December 2015 I would have been able to pack a whole weekends worth of clothes in one travel backpack for a city break to Amsterdam I would have laughed at you square in the face. Beady does not pack light. No Sirree. But, I did. I managed to pack 3 day & 3 night outfits with toiletries and shoes in to one bag. And when we go to Oslo at the end of this month we only have hand luggage again. I know some of you may be crying out in horror! How, you might ask? Well I’m going to tell you how to travel with just hand luggage…

    Fathers Day Gift Guide for the Adventurous Dad* | QueenBeady

    House of Fraser Fathers Day
    It’s not something you usually see gracing the screens of QueenBeady relating to male items, but, as like most girls & ladies at this time of year we are frantically trying to think of new and exciting gifts for our Dad’s in the run up to Fathers Day so I wanted to make sure I could help a sister or two out. Thank me later y’all. But seriously, men are just notoriously hard to buy for & I for one can be left pulling my hair out trying to think what on earth can I spend my hard earned cash on to make sure I see some sort of smile on my male counterparts face. As ever there is a travel / adventure theme underlying with these gifts which I hope you will find most useful for the 19th June in my Fathers Day Gift Guide!

    Exploring Cities in the Right Pair of Shoes* | QueenBeady

    DANIEL FOOTWEAR AND JONES THE BOOTMAKER

    If you are anything like me, I need to have comfortable feet. They are the part of my body that keeps me going on long, busy days and they needed to be treated with the care & attention they deserve, so when I’m travelling to new city destinations I know my feet are gonna take a pounding. Hashtag sorry feet. So it’s only right that they are treated to the comfiest pairs of shoes to make sure that I can cope with the long days. I never want to be that person that moans ‘cos they’ve got blisters and they wanna go back to the hotel. Na-Ah! So I’ve done a little round-up to help you on your way to exploring cities in the right pair of shoes…

    The East Coast, Madeira | QueenBeady

    Madeira House

    I’m sure you will be absolutely sick to death of hearing about my trip to Madeira. What with all my blog posts, twitter updates and instagram posts I’ve not stopped banging on about it, so soz #sorrynotsorry. My last post is all about our full day Safari road trip of the East Coast, Madeira. The more rugged side of the island. We ummed and ahhed about whether we should do the East or West but after chatting with a local guide it seemed that East was more suited to what we were looking for, plus James wanted to go to one of the highest points on the island, Pico do Arieiro (I think Mr C has a serious thing for heights?)
