The verdict is in. Our holiday in Rhodes was the best we've ever had, and we loved it so much that we've booked to return next year. And our favourite day of our favourite holiday? That was the day we spent in Symi, a tiny island off the coast of Rhodes and Turkey.
When we travelled to France last year, we stayed in Poissy, on the western outskirts of Paris. It was perfectly placed for Gerberoy, Giverny, Saint-Germain-en-Laye and Paris, but there was another reason I was keen to stay here: Villa Savoye. While researching the area, I stumbled across this modernist villa and, being a big fan of modernism, I knew I had to visit.
I have so much to tell you about my busy summer of travelling, and I'm not sure where to begin. Perhaps it would be best to start with one of the most beautiful places we discovered.
I’ve only been to Canterbury once before and I wasn’t overly impressed with my photos because it was a dull and cloudy spring day. I finally got the chance to return during one of our summer heatwaves in June. It’s been a long, hot summer in my little corner of England, and I find myself unable to be more specific about which heatwave it was. The good news is that the sun was shining and the skies were blue, two ingredients which always seem to improve my photos.
Finally! After months of waiting, a brand new art trail has arrived in Dartford and, as you know, I love an art trail.
After walking with the Snowman, trailing Morph, tracking down the Books About Town and finding every single one of the London 2012 Olympic mascots, it's time to put my super sleuth skills to work in my own hometown.
