To begin with, British food is not complicated. So drawing up our "foodie list" was the last thing we did when we were planning our UK trip in June last year. It helped too that Netflix was streaming British cooking shows such as "The Big Family Cooking Showdown" and "Million Pound Menu", and watching them gave me a good idea of what to expect in British local food.

UK Adventure Days 7 to 9: Back in London
Hello all! I hope everyone's safe and well in this pandemic time. I finally found the time and motivation to finish my UK travel diary. How time flies so quickly! Just last year we were busy touring London and Scotland, and then 9 months later this beautiful country, along with all others, closed their borders and put all stops at tourism - for people to just stay home ...

My Birthday Week in Japan
I'm back, people! Please allow me to do a little detour from my UK travel diary (haven't started with Day 7 yet, but don't worry, matatapos na ang kwento ko dun hehe!) and write about our very recent trip to Japan - where I celebrated my 4_th birthday! That's right. I decided to celebrate my birthday abroad for a change. The idea came about after reading countless ... READ MORE
UK Adventure Day 6: Our FREE Scottish Highlands Hairy Coo Tour
The year is about to end and I haven't finished my UK travel journal yet, hehe! So here we go. We are now on Day 6 and it was another outdoor tour for us - this time, to the Scottish Highlands!

UK Adventure Day 5: Exploring the Magical Edinburgh
We only had 2 days to explore Scotland, the northern part of UK, but it was enough to see the best of Edinburgh and part of the Highlands. Edinburgh is the capital of Scotland, with lots of old towns and villages that retained much of their original character as settlements. It's not hard to fall in love with Edinburgh, and now I understand why some of the travelers I know ... READ MORE
UK Adventure Day 4: Covent Garden + Trip to Edinburgh
We were back at exploring London on our 4th day, and we have the whole morning until mid-afternoon for sightseeing before we depart for Edinburgh (pronounced “Edin-brah”) in Scotland - by high speed train. Since the St. George Wharf Pier was just a walking distance from Travelodge Hotel in Vauxhall (our home in the last 4 days), our group took ... READ MORE
UK Adventure Day 3: Exploring the Traditional Cotswolds Villages and Oxford
I have always wanted to explore the English countryside, so when I found this small group tour of Traditional Cotswolds Villages and Oxford from Klook, I immediately booked it. To my surprise, it was the Rabbie's Cotwolds tour that I've been eyeing when we were planning our UK trip. So I was really happy that we will get to experience Rabbie's brand of service. Our ...

UK Adventure Day 2: Exploring Windsor, Bath and Stonehenge + More of London at Night
We booked Evan Evan Tours via Klook for our Windsor, Bath and Stonehenge Day Tour. If there's one thing I love about planning for our UK trip, it was the myriad of day tours available from London and at budget-friendly prices. For this tour, we have to be at the meet-up point (Victoria Station) by 7:30 a.m. since the bus leaves at exactly 8:00 a.m. First stop was ... READ MORE
