    We all want to travel the world (well, most of us!) and it seems that every time I log on to Instagram some bikini clad person is strutting around some amazing beach whilst it pours it down with rain here in the UK. Queue a cake-ridden binge fest to drown my sorrows. One, they look amazing in said bikini and two, I’m not there. As mentioned in previous posts  I was once a travel agent for 8 years so know a few tricks of the trade to make sure you are getting the most for your money. Luckily we make roughly 3 trips abroad a year, with a few UK breaks thrown in too & I want to share with you how we plan for our travel plans cost effectively!

    It’s time for one of those chatty little posts where I really ramble. A bit of “word vomit” if you may. So grab a cuppa like me and get settled. It’s been a while since I sat down & thought “Wow, my life is pretty sweet.” It’s a sorry state of affairs when you start to forget to appreciate the good things in life and quite simply it can really wear you down. I’m notoriously terrible in January and February. I think there is a little bit of Seasonal Affective Disorder in us all. When the dark night’s start appearing you still have Halloween, Bonfire Night & Christmas to look forward to. Once January hits it’s a little bit gloomy for me. But now, now I’ve had my holiday to Madeira and the nights are getting lighter I feel a million times better.

    imageI have so many memories to share with you from our trip to Madeira but first I want to share 5 reasons why you should travel to Madeira! I won this fabulous trip at icelolly.com #BlogAtTheBeach event last year and it is something I am truly thankful for. The holiday came at a time where my body just needed that break and it was time to soak up some sunshine and spend some quality R’n’R with my husband too. Whilst some say the island is the Blue Rinse capital I didn’t mind rubbing shoulders with the OAPs because Madeira had so much more to offer….

    Having just got back from my recent trip to Madeira, I am now eagerly awaiting our next break which happens to be a city break to Oslo, Norway at the end of May. We really don’t have that long to wait and the rate that this year is going it will be here before we know it, no doubt. With that said I need to start thinking about my next holiday essentials and at the top of that list is a great piece of hand luggage.
