    Three Amazing Views from Around the World

    April 5, 2013 / No Comments

    From the jaw-droppingly stunning to the downright weird and wacky, there are an abundance of pretty incredible places on Earth, both natural and man-made. Sometimes it’s difficult to really put our surroundings into perspective, especially when looking up from ground level, but in the right spot, it’s easy to fully appreciate a bustling metropolis or place of amazing natural beauty (and take some brilliant photos in the process!) Here are a few epic views from around the world that are both breathtaking and awe-inspiring… Machu Picchu Located in the Peruvian Andes mountain range, Machu Picchu is commonly known as ‘The Lost City of the Incas’ and truly is one of the world’s most…

    Swap your 9-5 for Something More Exciting (For a Day)

    April 3, 2013 / No Comments

    Ever fancied doing something different for a living? Go on, you can admit it – and don’t worry, we won’t tell your boss. At some point, we’ve probably all wondered what it would be like to wake up and go to work somewhere a world away from our normal nine-to-five. And while being an secret spy or a professional beer taster might not be a viable option for most of us, there’s no reason you shouldn’t give it a go – if only for a day. So as 3rd April is officially “Don’t Go To Work Unless It’s Fun Day”, we’ve come up with some experiences to help you do just…

    Springing Forward: How to Make the Most of Daylight Saving Time

    March 29, 2013 / No Comments

    As many of you may know, this Sunday the clocks go forward, meaning we all get to enjoy an extra hour of daylight. Originally proposed in 1895 by George Vernon Hudson with a view to take advantage of more leisurely after work activities, Daylight Saving Time marks the end of a weary winter and the start of a prosperous spring and summer season. That means more time to spend outdoors in the evenings – but what will you do with it? If you’re stuck for ideas and in need of a little inspiration, here are a few seasonal activities that might just put a little spring in your step… Go…

    From the Wacky to the Wonderful: Unusual Spa Treatments

    March 25, 2013 / No Comments

    Everyone loves to relax and be pampered – putting your feet up, going for a swim, having a facial or being massaged are all great ways to get rid of stress and strain. However, there are more unusual ways to achieve total relaxation and some out of ordinary ways to be preened and pampered. Here are a few from around the world, but be warned, some of these aren’t for the faint hearted!

    Five of the Best Proposals on the Internet

    March 20, 2013 / No Comments

    This post was originally created for National Proposal Day (20th March which we also think of as the vernal equinox or the start of spring). Despite what you might be thinking, the roots of this day don’t lie with a greetings card company but with the worldwide web. However, with Harry and Meghan wedding fever written all over this month, we decided to revisit National Proposal Day. It is a time for new beginnings and declarations of lifelong commitment – and also (ok, mostly) an excuse for us to hunt around online, digging up some inventive marriage proposals. 1.
