Mallorca chillin, found a stunning white sand beach with hardly a soul on it.

Thoroughly enjoyed our winter visit to Slovenia. A wealth of activities to do both in summer and the winter. We had a few days skiing, hiking and ofcourse a lake swim for me 😁bookwithemma.com

Proud of my 79 year old mum who I’ve just waved off at the train station as she heads to Manchester airport for a weeks holiday on her own in Goa. This is a destination we know well, but mum hasn’t visited for over 10 years and she’s never holidayed alone. Why didn’t I take her to the airport, you ask? She wanted to go on the train whilst she is still able. If you don’t use it you lose it.

If you’d love to see the Grand Prix anywhere in the world drop me a line.

The snow has been great this week in Val Thorens we even got to ski as it fell. Typically the day I didn’t pack my snood so turned my face into a cherry.

Snow touring today, utterly exhausting but brilliant. Great to try something new with a two hour hike uphill followed by fantastic powder skiing back down.

Had to give it a go. Clearly didn’t turn out as well as I’d hoped but what views off piste.

….as if Emirates wasn’t already a great airline to fly with, they’ve just launched their new ‘class’ Premium Economy.

With wider, cream leather seats and an elevated dining experience surrounded by a sophisticated cabin interior. What’s not to like. If you are looking to holiday in the Emirates or further afield drop me a text and let’s start booking.

Exhausted, need a family holiday this Easter….

Best takeaway from a days research on the Maldives, Kuramathi Resort, when an infinity pool just melts into the lagoon. Plus the amazing Zero restaurant at Sun Island Resort set in the tree tops. Such an amazing destination for that once in a lifetime holiday.

When it’s miserable outside what better way to spend a day than checking out different resorts in the Maldives. A unique destination with over 200 islands to choose from, which would be yours…..

Today is International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples. Did you know that there are around 300 to 370 million indigenous peoples worldwide? Constituting around 5% of the world's population, they make up approximately 15% of the world's poor. According to the UN, indigenous peoples make up about one third of the world’s 900 million extremely poor rural people.

International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples was set up to raise awareness and petition for indigenous peoples to be recognised and respected for their individual and collective human rights.

It’s no secret Thailand is one on my favourite destinations. Where else would you get to experience the madness of a railway market.
