Sunday Spotlight – Luxembourg

So. If you’re in Europe and want to go somewhere that doesn’t quite see the tourists that the big cities of Paris, Rome, Prague etc see, let me suggest one to you – Luxembourg.

Sunday Spotlight – Hiroshima

Let me tell you, a city known for the world’s first atomic bomb being dropped on it, is 60 years later a wonderful place to visit in Japan. I really can’t recommend Hiroshima enough, it’s simply brilliant. If you travel to Japan and don’t get there, you’ve really missed out on a city that has …

Trip of a Life Time – London, Glastonbury and Bristol

Despite the history of Rome or the grandeur of Paris, one city I will always love above them both in Europe is London. Seriously, for any die-hard Doctor Who fan and fan of things British (within reason, I ain’t no monarchist) London is the stuff of fantasies and more. It’s a freaking awesome place once …
