A Long Weekend in Transylvania

WorldWideWill — Tue, 10 Mar 2026 10:49:34 +0000

Few regions in Europe stir the imagination quite like Transylvania. For many travellers the name alone conjures images of Gothic castles, misty forests and the enduring legend of Dracula. Yet beyond the folklore lies one of Europe’s most captivating and culturally rich regions; a landscape of medieval towns, vibrant cities and sweeping mountain scenery.

Innsbruck Christmas Markets

WorldWideWill — Sun, 24 Dec 2023 15:46:43 +0000

With wonderful memories of the Christmas markets in Salzburg some years ago, I already had high expectations for Innsbruck. I was not disappointed. The markets in Innsbruck were just as traditional and Christmassy as I had hoped. A very heavy snowfall over Innsbruck just hours before our arrival, made it even more magical. Innsbruck is […]

Riga Christmas Market

When you think about Christmas Markets one of the first images that springs to mind is wandering through an array of traditional wooden market stalls in a picturesque market square with the snow falling all around. The 2022 Riga Christmas market, located in Dome Square (Doma laukums) in the heart of the old town was […]

Bologna City Break

WorldWideWill — Sat, 25 Jan 2020 18:18:00 +0000

Italy is a country I find myself returning to time and time again, I don’t necessarily go back and visit the the same city every time though. Don’t get me wrong, I have been to both Rome and Venice more than once, but I do like to explore some of Italy’s other fantastic cities. For this trip I decided to visit a brand new city and found myself booking a Bologna City Break.

Dusseldorf Christmas Market

WorldWideWill — Tue, 24 Dec 2019 11:35:00 +0000

This year I decided that I was going to visit the Salzburg Christmas markets, which I’ve been wanting to visit for a while now. I also decided that I would make a second Christmas market trip so that I could re-visit the Dusseldorf Christmas market to remind myself just how wonderful my first Christmas market experience was.

Salzburg Christmas Market

WorldWideWill — Thu, 12 Dec 2019 18:32:00 +0000

This year I decided to visit two Christmas markets, one which I have visited before and also a brand new destination, Salzburg. Salzburg came highly recommended to me by a family member who had visited the Salzburg Christmas market a few years ago, and I thought a destination in the Alps would make a fantastic Christmas market location.

The shorter days and colder nights can only mean one thing… it's nearly time for the Christmas Market season to begin. Over the next few weeks we will see the streets and market squares of the beautiful European cities come alive with Christmas spirit. Each year during the run up to Christmas I try to visit at least one European Christmas Market, but this year I have planned to visit two cities.

Long Weekend Break in Oia, Santorini

WorldWideWill — Sat, 19 Oct 2019 11:38:39 +0000

Picturesque blue domed churches and white-washed towns and villages perched on a cliff-top, high above the vivid blue waters of the Aegean Sea could only be one place; Santorini. For a long time now Santorini has been on my to-do list, but as you could probably guess, my to-do list is quite extensive. One Sunday […]

Krakow City Break

WorldWideWill — Wed, 25 Sep 2019 18:48:39 +0000

Over the past two years I have visited Gdansk in Poland three times, and during each visit I fall in love with Poland a little more. I love the city of Gdansk and the cuisine. My three trips have inspired me to explore more of Poland, so when some friends asked me to join them on a Krakow city break I didn’t hesitate at all.

My British Airways A350 Club Suites Flight From London Heathrow to Madrid

WorldWideWill — Thu, 08 Aug 2019 16:13:54 +0000

The British Airways Club Suites were officially announced five months ago and were set to debut on British Airways’ newest long-haul aircraft, the Airbus A350 which they started to take delivery of this summer. Once the delivery date of the first aircraft was confirmed, BA announced the first destinations would be Dubai and Toronto, but for a few weeks over the summer crew familiarisation flights would operate to Madrid. No set dates were given by BA for these Madrid flights, but information about them leaked on various websites, so once I heard that this information was credible I didn’t hesitate in booking a return flight to Madrid on the fantastic new British Airways A350 Club Suites.
