With the Summer holiday season approaching, Kos is a great island to visit for soaking up the sun on the Aegean Sea. Despite its popularity as a tourist destination, Kos has managed to maintain a relaxed and laid-back atmosphere. I've rounded up some of the best things to do in Kos, including cycling the seaside bike paths, tasting wine at local vineyards, and even taking a day trip to visit neighbouring Turkey.

Village hopping in the Cotswolds 🇬🇧🐄

Less than 2 hours by car from London, it was the perfect destination to get a taste of the English countryside. Although train service is available to some of the major villages in the region, having access to a car really allowed us to cover a lot of ground during our weekend trip.
