The flower market in Shoreditch is worth rolling out of bed early on Sunday mornings. It’s best to get there when they open at 8am because the street is narrow and can get quite claustrophobic later on. Walking through market is like taking a step back in time hundreds of years to the 19th when […]

We wish you a very merry Christmas! Christmas is magical time throughout London and the city comes alive with all sorts of festivities. Two of the biggest and most spectacular events are the Oxford street lights and the Hyde park winter wonderland fair (both of which are dog friendly). Oxford street is very long, three […]
The Tower of London is not only one of the most important buildings in England, but one of the most popular London attractions. The tower was built in 1066 by William the Conqueror as a demonstration of Norman Power. Not just a fortress, it is also known as the gateway to the capital. It was […]
Wales is a country located in southwest Great Britain. We spent a day and night in Holyhead, Wales before we traveled to Ireland from England. The reason we picked this city was because it was where the ferry port was located. We stayed at the Boathouse Hotel, which I highly would recommend to anyone. The […]

If you love football, you will find one of the most famous sporting clubs in the world here. There is an […]
One of the biggest issues while traveling with a dog is finding a dog friendly place to stay. For long stays we usually use Airbnb because it can be much cheaper and the hotels usually call us to come back for Coco because he tends to bark if we leave him. For short stays we […]
Chester contains the largest stone-built Roman Amphitheater in all of Britain. Excavation began in 2005, although much is yet to be uncovered. The finds uncovered in the digs can be found in the Grosvenor Museum. The Roman Amphitheater can be found right next to the old Roman walls. It is free to enter and is still used […]
Chester is a city we highly recommend to visit as a day trip. Before we came to England we had never even heard of Chester. I am so glad we listened to the locals in Manchester and gave it a visit! It was one of the most charming little cities I have ever been to. […]
Chester is a small city in Northwest England that is known for it’s well preserved roman walls. Just about everyone we met in Manchester recommended it as one of the cities we should see while in England. Everything we wanted to see was in walking distance so it was a great city to explore with […]
