We decided to spend Christmas 2017 in the Maldives. It wasn’t my idea, it was my husbands and I have to say its probably one of his best yet. As it was a ‘once in a lifetime’ holiday, we decided to go the whole hog and book a jacuzzi water villa at the Meeru Island Resort... Read More ..read more

I was recently nominated for the Brotherhood of the World Blogger Award by the Azra over at Simple Serenity.

The second part of our Phuket holiday was during the late King of Thailand’s funeral and we weren’t really sure of the implications of that so thought it was a good opportunity to hole up in an Air BnB somewhere.

One of my aims since last summer was to visit a few more of the incredible places that are right on our doorstep.
