Here's what caught my eye in Porto

You start a business, and all of a sudden you’ve not taken a proper holiday for 5 years!

We rekindled our love for travel with a trip to Porto in Portugal, and I didn’t realise how much I needed it.

5 days and 40 miles later, I think we walked almost the entire city and the coastline - here’s what caught my eye along the way.

Now I remember the stressy joys of:

  • frantically weighing a suitcase 5 minutes before leaving the house

  • hitting a road closure on the way to the airport

  • terminal beer and burritos

  • that wobbly feeling in your stomach as you leave the ground

  • late taxis

  • new city smells

  • ordering food in a language Duoligo has done its best to prepare you for

  • tipsy 10pm ice cream as you walk the streets in a summer dress

  • dancing with strangers at sunset

  • marvelling at the art-filled architecture and finally

  • arriving back in a truly Autumnal UK

  • I’ll not be leaving it so long again.


I’ve already got next years trip to Ireland in the diary - I’ve never been before and whilst I’m super excited, I’d love to plan a sunny (restful) holiday abroad too.


Please send me your favourite relaxing destinations and your Irish top-tips, we’ll be doing a little road trip and I cannot wait!
