At the end of my gap year when I dropped out of university and took a year out, I decided to treat myself with a trip to Berlin. I found cheap flights from Dublin with RyanAir, and booked a private room in the Sunflower Hostel, as I like the safety of my own space when… Continue reading City Break: Berlin

In December 2017, I took a short city break in Amsterdam, leaving on the 18th of December and returning home to Northern Ireland on the 21st. I really enjoyed it and would love to go back to spend more time there, and to see the things I didn't have time to see while I was… Continue reading Winter in Amsterdam
Why travel with only hand luggage? If you're looking to travel on the cheap, taking only hand luggage can be a great way to save money!
