    #INNTRAVELCAPTUREYORK WITH KEITH MOSS | QUEENBEADY

    York Minster

    I’m munching away on a tuna & cucumber sandwich, with a bag of salt & vinegar squares to be precise and an email lands in my inbox inviting me to a photography event with Inntravel, where legendary street photographer Keith Moss would be our mentor for the day. Now, anyone who knows me, I don’t put down food for anything (hey, I love food, what can I say?) but this email made me put my sandwich down. No lie. You see, I’ve owned a DSLR camera since October last year and it’s only fluke that I get a decent photo from time to time. I couldn’t wait to understand my camera bit better and how to get the best shot.

    5 TRAVEL UPGRADE HACKS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT

    Having worked in the Travel Industry I became accustomed to trying to get clients the best possible options, for the very best price possible. And, in turn have applied them to my own travels too. I wanted to share a few travel upgrade hacks to make sure you are getting things when you maybe didn’t really have to pay for them or could have paid half the price. This post does come with a warning as it doesn’t always happen every time but knowing the right tips & tricks can put you on the right path to getting a few nice upgrades when you are on your travels.

  • A WEEKEND IN OSLO #2 | QUEENBEADY

    The second full day with our weekend in Oslo at the end of May saw us head on a bit of a wild goose chase. We just couldn’t find anywhere like the Nighthawk Diner (if you click this link you will enter the world of the best breakfast I have EVER eaten!) for brunch that I had a (minor) paddy. We ended up sharing a Subway that was about 5 feet away from our hotel after a good hour or so of traipsing around finding somewhere to eat. Some of you may know when my levels reach “hangry” I am not to be messed with so the steak, cheese & chilli foot long was exactly what I needed to make sure we had a pleasant day seeing some more of the cities sights which were dotted around the city. The first stop was the Royal Palace and the view down to Karl Johans Gate which was only a five or ten minute walk from our hotel, HTL Grensen.

    Oh Oslo, you are a town that is so fresh from anything we have seen before. So clean, safe and ever so cool. It’s safe to say that I fell completely head over heels in love with the Norwegian City of Oslo. It’s two weeks since we were there and I’m still walking around in that “holiday bliss” phase (which I’m sure will disappear soon!) After booking some very reasonable flights from Manchester and a rather chic hotel for Mr C’s Christmas present, I have been counting down the days since the 25th December for this trip. I’m hoping I can share with you some of the fun we had (go watch the vlog too!), along with places to see and things to do during our weekend in Oslo, and maybe you might just want to give this little corner of the world a visit!

    Come with me to Oslo Vlog | QueenBeady

    You know when I kinda went bat-shit cray cray on Snapchat because my video editing was not going quite according to plan? Well, this is the fruits of my labour (read: blood, sweat & tears!) I was going to write my Oslo posts first but then I thought, “to hell with it!” The vlog doesn’t give too much away, but you can kinda, most definitely see just how pretty the place was through the eyes of my camera lens. Whilst I didn’t get chance to film everything I hope you enjoy the snippets that I did shoot. Enjoy.
