Mrs. O goes back to Dublin and finds her spiritual home, drinks some whisky and feasted on amazing food. And even saw Lady Gaga sing. A perfect weekend indeed.
Wine Tasting in England? Seriously? It is true indeed. We decided to find out what is really going on with British winemaking. A nice surprise indeed. I am no wine expert – I am just a girl who likes drinking a bit of wine.
Alentejo is one of my favourite places in the world. It is not overdeveloped (on the contrary), it is quiet, hot, the food and wine are amazing, and the pace of life slow slow slow – perfect to wind down and start a week. Or stay there forever.
It doesn’t matter how many trips I have booked or intend to book each year, one is absolutely non-negotiable (or even sacred!) – and that is my week in the south of Portugal, which includes at least a day in the Alentejo, and the rest of the week in the Algarve. This year, I was in for a treat.
Barcelona welcomed me back For over 4 years, I had the privilege of “having” to go to Barcelona for work every other week. During this time, I spread my time…
We were delighted to be accompanied by Mr. & Mrs. O and friends, on one of our weekends away in the Langhe, in the wine region of Piedmont, probably best known for its wonderfully complex Barolo wines.
It was time to try something new and on a recent trip to Portugal’s capital city and my hometown, Mr. O and I did just that! Here are some places we found and loved in Lisbon, Portugal
Paris does not require a proper introduction. Considered by many the most romantic city in the world, it is a city that has grown on me over time. I think I must have visited a good 6 times, but Mr. O and I hadn’t ventured over the Channel for around 5 years, so it was great to go back.
Val Thorens isn’t a huge resort, but has everything we need – fantastic accommodation, great restaurants and great ski-in ski-out access. Oh and have I mentioned great skiing instructors?
I have recently fallen in love with this special grape juice, which comes in many shapes and colours. Obviously, I didn’t know much about it, and always keen to learn. Should we raise a glass?
