LAKE ATITLAN, GUATEMALA

22/04/2014




During my Guatemalan adventure, I spent a few nights on Lake Atitlan. It had such an impact on me that I felt it deserved it's own post. I watched the sunrise in the mornings and in the evenings I watched the fireflies flash their tail lights. I had a memorable stay at the eco-lodge La Fortuna. The lake was enchanting and the tranquility was just what I needed to relax and clear my mind for a few days.

SEMANTA SANTA - EASTER CELEBRATIONS IN ANTIGUA, GUATEMALA

18/04/2014



I recently travelled through Guatemala and Belize. I had been longing to venture back to Central America since my last visit there 3 years ago. I was also missing the sun, humidity and wanted an adventure. Guatemala wasn't the first place I had considered for this trip but a few friends convinced me otherwise. I decided to coincide my trip around Easter, as I found out through my research that Easter (Semanta Santa) is celebrated in a big way, especially in Antigua. I wasn't prepared for how big the celebrations were.

A WEEKEND IN CORNWALL

05/04/2014




On the agenda was walks along the coast, a visit to picturesque St Ives, a spot of surfing and lots of delicious Cornish inspired food. Top of my list was a visit to the Eden Project, which I was quite excited by. I remember hearing about this place about 10 years ago, and was fascinated by what looked like the world's largest greenhouse. The best part was the tropical biome. The humidity hits as soon you enter the glass doors, you take your jumper off and pretend you're in the tropics for an afternoon.

Although 3 days wasn't enough but I got a taste of what Cornwall has to offer. I wouldn't hesitate to come back.


STARTING MY FIRST BLOG

Hello!

I have decided to join the world of blogging and create my very own blog. It's a big wide world of blogs out there, and I feel slightly overwhelmed and daunted by the prospect of adding my blog to it. But I might as well dive right in so here goes.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy my posts.
