Summer in Salcombe ⛵️🦀🐚 Pastel houses, little stre Summer in Salcombe ⛵️🦀🐚 Pastel houses, little streets tumbling down towards the water, kids crabbing along the quayside, boats bobbing in the harbour, hidden coves and some of the bluest water you’ll find on the English coast. On a sunny day, this little corner of South Devon is hard to beat…

A few things to add to your Salcombe list:

🥐 Breakfast at The Winking Prawn, start the day by the sea at this Salcombe favourite, right by North Sands.

⛵ Take the ferry to East Portlemouth and spend the day hopping between the little beaches across the estuary

🏖️ Swim at North Sands & South Sands for a proper Salcombe beach day

🥾 Walk a stretch of the South West Coast Path for some seriously beautiful coastal views

🚤 Get out on the water – hire a boat, kayak or paddleboard and explore the estuary

🍦 Grab a Salcombe Dairy ice cream and wander around the harbour

🍸 Try Salcombe Gin – made right here in town

🛍️ Explore Fore Street for independent shops, cafés and little galleries

🦀 Eat by the water – preferably with seafood, chips and something cold in hand

🌅 Stay for golden hour when the crowds disappear and the whole harbour starts to glow

Turns out you don’t always need to get on a plane to find that summer feeling. 🇬🇧

Folegandros in every shade of blue 💙🩵 This island Folegandros in every shade of blue 💙🩵

This island is small, wild and wonderfully laid-back. There are no big resorts or endless lists of attractions here, which is exactly the point. Rent a car, beach hop, wander around Chora with absolutely no plan and spend far too long over dinner in one of its little squares.

A few things not to miss:

⛪️ Walk the zigzag path up to the Church of Panagia for one of the best views on the island
💦 Swim in the ridiculously clear water at Agios Nikolaos, Agali & Katergo
🥾 Take the coastal path from Agali to Agios Nikolaos… or do what we did and get the five-minute boat 🙃
🤍 Get lost in Chora’s whitewashed lanes, colourful doors and bougainvillea-filled courtyards
🏰 Wander through the Kastro, the oldest part of Chora, where houses were built into the old fortress walls
🚙 Rent a car and go hunting for tiny coves, viewpoints and corners of the island you’d otherwise never see
🍽️ Claim a table in one of Chora’s little squares and let dinner turn into drinks turn into “how is it midnight already?”
🌅 Head up high for sunset because Folegandros really knows how to show off when the sun goes down

Athens is a bit like Marmite. People seem to eithe Athens is a bit like Marmite. People seem to either absolutely love it or really, really don’t… and I am firmly in the love camp. 🇬🇷

Yes, it’s chaotic, a little rough around the edges and definitely not the prettiest European city at first glance, but that’s kind of what I love about it. Ancient ruins casually sitting between busy streets, little neighbourhood tavernas, rooftop bars overlooking the Acropolis, incredible food, late nights and that unmistakable Athens energy.
Every time I come back, I like it even more.

A few postcards from one of my favourite city breaks in-between ferry hopping to islands. 💙

🏛️ Visit the Acropolis & Parthenon
🌿 Wander through Plaka & Anafiotika
🍽️ Eat your way around the city at local tavernas
🌅 Watch sunset from Lycabettus Hill
🍸 Have drinks at a rooftop bar overlooking the Acropolis

A morning dip followed by a coffee, something warm from the bakery, fresh fruit, the Aegean sparkling in the background and absolutely nowhere I need to be. I could happily start every day exactly like this 💭
