Instant January
As my recent the year in Instax went down quite well, I thought I’d share some pics from this month and a bit of the last December, as London and Lisbon are very photogenic. Some quick snaps from Food and Presentfest last December, my favourite presents included a Aurora Borealis projector lamp, The…
Cinque Terre: the highlights and lowlights
4/5 of the Cinque Terre villages: Vernazza, Corniglia, Monterosso al Mare, and Riomaggiore. The five coastal villages with coloured houses, little boats and dramatic mountains form the perfect Instagram background. Seriously, you walk into one of the towns, and it’s like you enter a behind the Instagram scenes set. Although…

Following up on my Lokrum post I’m sharing some photos from another little island I happened upon on my travels. This time I want to focus on the lil rock called Viðey or Videy. This small island is a 5 – 10 minute boat ride from Reykjavik and makes a…
Oi from Lisbon – Belem Edition
Or the day I went to Belem and ate. A lot. In my continuing story of my love affair / romance from afar with Lisbon, we get down to business, well, mostly food, but there’s some buildings too, I promise. After a quick stop at the supermarket and miscommunication about…
Love this post!!! I have to agree with number one “seeing the sunrise,” that is always a special, important experience for me wherever I travel… it grounds you and helps you realize however different or foreign the place we find ourselves in the familiarity of dawn and the beginning of a new day affects us all.

Great list! Good reminder that sometimes the little things make a world of a difference.
This reminds me so much when we went backpacking on Southeast Asia! How I miss traveling!
Travel sure makes one feel grateful for the little things, huh?
It’s JPei
And it also makes the little things grateful for travel 😀
Love the feeling of getting off the plane!
I love this idea. It’s so true. Travel itself is such a magical experience. You have to remember all the little moments. A night alone in a 12 bed hostel is a luxury! :] // itsCarmen.com ☼ ☯
you are right the best things in travel are free
Gaining a beautiful sunrise oh yes, I normally photograph these. An upgrade on a flight never managed it but well done, on a ten hour flight even better. I flew on my birthday and still it didn’t happen. Enjoyed reading this post Lucy x
Such a great list! All these things are awesome, expecially the snore free hostel room!
Ah man this makes me want to go travelling so bad. Great post, as always. xx

Yup! Ironically, travel showed me how to enjoy the little, free things in life, and how to cherish moments we often take for granted while at home. Great post.
