Five Enviable Places to Ring in New Year’s Eve

Posted on by Emma Reed

*Collaborative Post

I always find the week around Christmas to be a bit confusing and disorientating. It isn’t because of the hallucinations you get from eating so much food for so many days in a row, but because you sort of lose the sense of what day of the week it is.  

I often find that everything begins to sort itself out though when you see New Year’s Eve on the calendar. It does more to reset your body clock/calendar (if it is such a thing) than New Year’s Day does.

7 Must-See Natural Wonders of Bali Near to Seminyak

Posted on by Emma Reed

*Collaborative Post

Seeing the world and all that it has to offer has always been an ambition of mine. We have been lucky enough to have already had wonderful holidays visiting the likes of Tunisia, Crete, Turkey, Rhodes, Zante, Gran Canaria and most recently, Florida but I am eager to travel further afield, to experience countries that look and feel like paradise, to immerse myself in their cultures and to take in all of the different natural wonders they have to offer. Bali is one of those countries on my (long) list.

Vacations with an Elderly Parent

Posted on by Emma Reed

*Collaborative Post

Travelling with an elderly parent can come with some real challenges, but it can also be very rewarding. Vacations are a great way of bonding closer together and providing your loved ones with amazing memories. By including your parent or parents in your vacation plans, you get to give them a real sense of belonging, and for the elderly, isolation and loneliness can be very real worries. While there are plenty of reasons why bringing your parents on vacation is a good idea, there are some potential barriers to tackle.

8 Reasons Why Our Florida Holiday Was Absolutely Amazing!

Posted on by Emma Reed

*Collaborative Post

In March this year, we visited Florida for the very first time. If you have read some of my other blogs you will know that this wasn’t a holiday that had been planned well in advance, in fact, we only knew six months prior because the idea came about due to my husband needing to go out there for work. As it was so far to travel to and because none of us had ever been to Florida before, we decided to make it a family holiday to remember. With not long to plan, we set about researching things to do in Florida, booking tickets and accommodation, a hire car and arranging everything we needed to travel to the US in order to enjoy our first-ever Florida holiday.
