Istanbul was full of fun and new tastes, it had lots of spices and Turkish delight shops! There were also lots of tea shops, which we tried and they tasted delicious, absolutely mouth watering. Ranging from small to big foods we tried them all, here are some of the food
From Lesvos we took a ferry to Ayvalik to begin our adventure in Turkiye. Interesting point to note – in 2022 Turkey officially requested for the world to officially call the country Turkiye. Ayvalik seemed like a nice port town, more upmarket than Newhaven! We were woken with the most
Today we visited a few sites connected to the Gallipoli campaign, especially the associated landing sites of the British and ANZAC (Australian & New Zealand Army Corps) forces.

Today we created a drawing inspired by the Greek evil eye symbol.
We started the day with a nice early morning walk. We did not see as many cats as we expected. The ones we did see were stray but at the same time were being looked after by the people who live in the city! When we finally arrived at the
After our mammoth adventure in Costa Rica we stopped in Montreal on the way home for a few nights. My GCSE French came out of dusty retirement but the Montrealers replied in English! We ate poutine (cheesy gravy chips) and Beavertail pastries, climbed a rope course on a pirate ship
This summer we embarked on a road trip around Costa Rica, with Canadian stop offs in Toronto on the way and Montreal on the return. Central America is an area that we had never travelled to before and it did not disappoint with the amazing landscapes, wildlife and adventures we
