🇵🇱 Gdansk is one of Poland’s most beautiful cities..Situated at the mouth of the Vistula River on the Baltic Sea, it has an interesting history and a lovely little old town to explore. Known for its Amber products, Long Market, Neptunes Fountain and being home to the famous vodka liqueur Goldwasser. With direct flights from Aberdeen - it’s a perfect little city break ✈️

🇪🇸 VALENCIA #2 The stunning “City of Arts & Sciences Monuments” A wonderful place to explore on a sunny day - of which there are many! ☀️ Spread over 2kms on the old riverbank of the River Turia which was diverted over 50yrs ago due to catastrophic flooding of the city. This reclaimed area now houses Europe’s largest aquarium, a Science museum, 3D Cinema, Botanical gardens and more… you could easily spend a day or more exploring this exciting place ❤️

🇪🇸 VALENCIA 🇪🇸 Being the 3rd largest city in Spain and official home to Paella 🥘, I was pleasantly surprised that the city doesn’t feel over crowded by tourists, managing to keep a lot of its authentic charm. With bustling coffee shops, bars and restaurants along a labyrinth of cobbled streets my limited Spanish was definitely tested! Everything and everywhere just seemed typically “Spanish” which was a real treat 🥰 Stunning architecture, Gothic cathedral, UNESCO World Heritage Site, over 30 museums and galleries, weekly markets including Europes largest food market. Large Marina, lush parks and gardens with fountains/statues at every turn, it really is a beautiful city to discover on foot. 🍊

🇬🇱 Spectacular Icebergs in Nanortalik in Greenland. Only a privileged few manage to get this close and my clients were fortunate that conditions allowed them to do this. Some of these icebergs are over 3000yrs old and the blue markings you see is the stunningly blue water cascading over and through them. Truly a bucket list moment and one that will never be forgotten 🩵 Thanks for sharing 🩵
