Another Place on Crosby Beach
I was planning a wee trip to Liverpool and was researching the area when I suddenly came across the “Another Place” art installation on Crosby Beach. It consists of 100 identical iron figures spread out on the beach, all looking towards the horizon. I was intrigued. So I decided to head to Crosby one late … Continue reading
The Stone Circles of Wiltshire
You can find two stone circles in Wiltshire in Southern England. Everyone knows Stonehenge and it’s probably the most famous stone circle of all. But if I say Avebury you’d maybe reply with “Huh?”. I had heard of both of them before going on my tour around South England and I’m so happy to have … Continue reading
The World’s Largest Candy Store
On my recent visit to London I went by the M&M’s World on Leicester Square. With its 3,250 square metres spread out on 4 different floors, this is the largest candy store in the world. It’s even bigger than the three other M&M’s World stores located in the United States. Now, being a big fan … Continue reading
Rediscovering the Joy of London through Camden Town
I think the first time I was in London was when I was 19. I went with my mum and my younger sister. I was so exited about being in a new, big city with so much to see. Since then, I’ve been to London many times – it’s probably the capital city I’ve visited … Continue reading

It’s the area and the view I love – If you’ve seen it I’m sure you’ll understand. I visited Tintagel … Continue reading
Following the Rugged Cornish Coast
You find county Cornwall in the south-western most corner of England and if there’s one thing this place is famous for, it’s its dramatic coastline. Being surrounded by sea to all sides, except the one bordering with county Devon, it has plenty of beaches, cliffs and whatnot. It is a beautiful place and I had … Continue reading
Not Just a Theatre
The rugged Cornish coast is where you will find the Minack Theatre. The word “minack” means “rocky place” in Cornish and is very fitting for this beautiful open-air theatre, which has been constructed into the cliffs with the coast and sea as the background. Unlike the many theatres that are found around Europe, this one … Continue reading
The Village Lost in Time
Lacock of Wiltshire is a bit of a special village. What makes it special is that the majority it is owned by the National Trust, a conservation organisation in England. It’s not allowed to hang up a satellite dish on any of the houses nor make any modernistic changes to them, and except from all … Continue reading
