Thursday Travel Inspiration - Exotic Escapes!

Spotlight on Costa Rica ☀️

This is a country renowned for its sunshine, incredible biodiversity, the purity of its rainforests, the pristine charm of its coastline and for having some of the best adventure activities in the world – not to mention being a true pioneer in sustainability and eco-tourism. But whatever it is that conquers your heart in Costa Rica, there is only one way fit to describe the feeling you'll get from a holiday here, and it's perfectly wrapped up in the country's most popular saying – pura vida! (pure life!)

With over 800 miles of coastline and both a Caribbean and a Pacific coast, it's no surprise that Costa Rica is renowned for having some of the most beautiful and unspoiled beaches in the world. But that's just a drop in this country's ocean of things on offer. Nature lovers will be spoiled for choice, with Tortuguero National Park just one of the many incredible reserves home to the country's whopping 500,000 different species! Maybe Arenal Volcano or Monteverde Cloud Forest will be your highlight, or perhaps the Osa Peninsula which offers visitors pristine beaches, untouched rainforest, abundant wildlife spotting, and some of the best snorkeling in the country.… and let's not forget the joys of staying in the impeccable eco-lodges to be found throughout this beautiful country. Whatever it is that most captures your imagination, we can promise you – Costa Rica will be certain to capture your heart!

Not sure how to choose which of Costa Rica's many highlights to fit into your trip? Don't worry, this is where I can help 😊

Flashback Friday - amazing first ever cruise!

And what a cruise this was 🥰 we were lucky enough to be onboard NCL Prima on one of her very first sailings to the Norwegian Fjords and we could not have loved it more.

We relaxed in our beautiful cabin, enjoyed fantastic food and entertainment, got loads of exercise and fresh air and generally dispelled all of our cruise myths on one trip!

What do you remember about your first cruise?
