I’m perched precariously on the back of the motorbike seat as we weave through the thick late afternoon traffic of Hanoi. Donned on my mop of curly hair is a ‘Hello Kitty’ helmet that is reminiscent of a World War II German helmet in shape. I find my wits are sharp as we wiggle around moving […]

We are flying from Malaysia after two glorious weeks here in Penang. Flying with a child means I always need to consider his needs, as there is nothing worse than an unhappy kid, and the inability to tend to their requirements mid-flight. Some of the things as a parent I need to consider include: how […]
We have just spent 10 glorious days in Batu Ferringhi on the island of Penang in Malaysia. ( You can read about our time here.) Once an island only known for its Betel trees (because the Betel tree fruit, the Areca nut, from where the island is ‘legend’ to have first got its name) so we are told […]
We’ve just spent the best part of ten hours on buses coming from Melaka to Penang. Not one bus, but three buses! And not just driving, there seemed to be long waits where we sat for what seemed forever. On a positive note, the buses improved with each swap, with the last bus being executive plush […]
We have just had the most incredible time in Singapore. We have been here writing the Top Ten Things to Do for Kids and finished off with a great stay at the iconic Raffles Hotel. We wake to a rather smoggy day and the air is thick from the fires and burn-off of Indonesian fields. […]

From little toddlers to teenage kids, you’ll find Singapore jam-packed with exciting activities that will keep your kids off their phones and technology, and out of the hotel room exploring this amazing city. We first booked only four nights here in Singapore, but soon found we […]

In many countries, you’ll find plenty of sunshine hanging around for weeks to come. If you’re thinking of planning a beach break in Europe, here are some of the best destinations to […]
In Singapore, there is a range of fantastic hotel offers for luxury accommodation. Family hotels and resorts are plentiful, and we find a few that we can recommend that will suit all budgets. I think one thing you need to decide before you book is which area you want to stay in. Sentosa Island, Chinatown, […]
If you like to travel in luxury style as a family, then Raffles Hotel is the place for you. We’ve had 2 great days here as the end to our second time in Singapore draws to a close. From the moment we arrive by taxi, my son begins to feel like he is a ‘special […]
We were in Singapore only a week ago – here to write about ‘Top Things To Do For Kids’, and we were shocked. Despite our research, we found Singapore had far more to do than we had anticipated! We’ve just had a week on the neighboring Indonesian islands of Batam and Bintan. We were in […]
It is not often we reach a 5-Star Resort where words fail me, but I must admit Banyan Tree Resort on Bintan Island, Indonesia has left me speechless. So after I give you a few facts about this lovely resort, I am going to let the ‘pictures tell a thousand words’ and let our photos […]
