Easyjet: an incredibly BAD airline
I don’t usually post negative reports like this on the website, but I am doing it as it is relevant to anyone planning on travelling in Europe using a ‘budget airline’ like Easyjet (aka Sleazyjet). Think again.
Having been living in Spain now for nearly 8 months, I was really looking forwards to the first visit [...]

Every time I return to England, it seems almost immediately there is a weather-related superlative issued for the month I choose to return.

The meadow is an ancient area of grazing land, still used for horses and cattle, and [...]
Cornwall, England
Cornwall is one of my favourite places in the world. The coastline is beautiful – just loook at the photo below taken overlooking Bedruthan Steps, just north of Newquay. It is one of the places I have missed most in my four years away from the England. Cornwall is the most South-Western country in England, [...]
