After a few days in London I hopped across the ditch to do some Dublin exploring next! I had never been to Ireland before but as the whole impetus for my trip was a wedding in the Irish countryside I thought it only made sense to fit in a few days in the capital as well.
London Exploring: Food Markets
London does food markets incredibly well and I made it my mission to visit as many of them as possible over the few days I was there recently, and boy was I not disappointed! Fresh produce, delicious snacks, handmade goodies and pretty much anything else edible (or drinkable!) you could imagine. Here’s a little about the three food markets I visited!
Christchurch Eating: Mama Hooch
As part of our day in Christchurch we headed to Mama Hooch for a lunchtime feed and we were most definitely not disappointed! It’s open from breakfast to late most days of the week and was the sort of place I would have liked to come back to later for a few drinks as well.
Weekend Adventures: Christchurch, New Zealand
Back in the middle of May I hopped over the ditch back to New Zealand for my Nana’s 80th birthday and managed to fit in a little exploring time in Christchurch as well! I thought I’d just share some of my weekend adventures with you all today!
Places to Visit: Lijiang, China
After sharing my adventures in Pompeii with you last month, I thought I would return with another beautiful travel location in this Places to Visit: Lijiang post! I visited Lijiang in February 2009 on one of my trips to China while my parents were living there, and it has since stood out as one of my favourite travel destinations. It is an amazing mix of beautiful scenery, history and culture and is most definitely worth a visit!
