The alarm went off at 5:45am; not even the seagulls were up that early. We got dressed, collected our "breakfast to go" prepared by the hotel and said goodbye to Visby. There are only a couple of journeys per day, so the ferry terminal was busy even

I finally got around to making a Gothenburg video. Hooray! Life dealt us a bad hand before this trip. We weren't sure whether we'd still be able to go and as a result, had done zero planning in the lead up. So stepping off the plane

I'm starting to realise that part of being an adult is mentioning how quickly the year has gone, every year. But honestly, where has the time gone!? I really enjoyed making travel videos over the last twelve months so I've put together a roundup of 2018.

This video marks the end of our time in Sweden sob. We booked some time off work for the last week and explored Dalarna, an area filled with deep forests and lakes. This part of our trip was very last minute so we didn't get a chance to

This was our last week in Stockholm before moving on to another part of Sweden. We thought the it had been pretty chilled out but looking back on all the video clips, it was quite eventful afterall. We visited an open air museum called Skansen where we saw wooden houses,

Our adventure has begun and we've quickly settled into Swedish life. We arrived to a grubby Airbnb late at night, after a delayed flight. Needing to give this place a damn good clean wasn't what we were expecting after putting the keys in the door but

You know it's going to be an exciting day when weatherproof suits and goggles are involved. We had booked a RIB tour to Trollfjorden, which included a sea eagle safari. I'd never been on a RIB boat or seen a sea eagle, so I was pretty

Our journey to the Lofoten Islands was one of the highlights from our trip to Norway. We flew from Oslo to Bodø, then took a bus from the airport to the centre and walked to the Hurtigruten ferry terminal. This was our ride to Svolvær! MS Richard With. With our

This video marks the end of our time in Oslo. I'm sad to be leaving but also excited to begin the next part of our Norwegian adventure. I am going to miss buying breakfast buns from the bakery on the corner and seeing tram spot cat. I'

I've put together a few snippets from our first week in Oslo. We've done so much since we arrived, landing at the airport feels like a long time ago already! Lots of snow has fallen but everything keeps ticking over. The trains are running, people are

The hardest day between Christmas and New Year is the one where you reluctantly emerge from what I call 'the Christmas cocoon' — the time spent loafing about in pyjamas, gorging on chocolate and leftover cheese. Playing with our Christmas presents was our only motivator for getting out and
