If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you may have noticed that I’m quite a big Spain fan. And even that’s an understatement. I absolutely adore the country. How could you not, when it’s given us some delicious food, spectacular scenery and Enrique Iglesias?! Just me on that last one then… My Spanish[…]
My full-time job is the only thing that’s stopping me from travelling. Actually – that’s a lie.

When you have something as exciting as a holiday to look forward to, waiting just seems to take forever! Especially when the global pandemic we’re currently living[…]

Some even give you unlimited boozy drinks if you pay a little extra. This morning I tried the Made Bar and Kitchen‘s version in Chalk Farm. For £14[…]
