Despite its age, there is something not quite of this world about the Laboral Cuidad de Cultura. It is pleasing to the eye for sure, but there is a strangeness to it… […]
All you need for this is an olive-hater, a bowl of olives (green preferably) and a crowd of onlookers who will be suitably amazed when this experiment is proven to work. […]
After a feast that included scorpion fish pate, hake tortilla and navajas (razor fish) I was faced with a plate of Cabrales – one of the most famous of blue cheeses in Asturias… […]
Pitlochry is an immaculate little town that must have first time visitors to the Highlands of Scotland drooling like a heilan’ coo when they set eyes on its ridiculously pretty streets. […]
The intensity of the sun strengthens in direct relation to our ascent, and with continual worried glances over our shoulders for the non-appearance of our mule with our water supply, we ration sips from the small bottle to appease our parched throats. […]
We realised all too late that rather than seeing as amigos travelling the same path, we were a threat to his particular patch of Langkawi forest. Just as the penny slowly dropped, the howling mad macaque turned, barked and charged. […]
Fronted by the neighbouring Canary Island of La Gomera which provides the stage for the sun’s nightly adieu performance, and occupying the best seats on the island for views of the monolithic cliffs of Los Gigantes, when it comes to fabulous Tenerife coastal vistas, the four star Hotel Barceló Santiago holds pole position.
