    The BirdsNest Meadows – Scotland’s Smallest Gallery

    16/05/2023

    I LOVE seeking out a city’s lesser-known hidden gems, and so I am thrilled to share one that has recently emerged in the heart of Edinburgh. Prepare to be delighted as we step into the enchanting world of the BirdsNest Gallery Meadows, a miniature art haven nestled along the edges of the beautiful Meadows Park. Picture this: a petite 1930s police box transformed into a captivating art gallery, exuding charm and creativity in every inch. The BirdsNest Meadows is a project born from the vision of its larger (private) sister gallery on Edinburgh St Clerk St. But what makes this gallery truly remarkable? Well, it proudly holds the official title…

    The Best Vegan and Vegetarian Restaurants in Aonang, Krabi, Thailand

    08/05/2023

    Planning a trip to Thailand and looking for a beach destination that caters to vegan and vegetarian diets? Aonang in Krabi has your back! Located on the southern coast of Thailand, Aonang attracts a mixed crowd of backpackers, solo travellers, families, and couples, with the promise of firey red and pink sunsets, limestone cliffs, relaxed evenings and island adventures. It’s also home to a plethora of vegan and vegetarian-friendly restaurants, making it a comfortable destination for plant-based foodies. Why Aonang is a haven for plant-based eaters? Thailand is known for its flavourful cuisine, but it can be challenging to find vegan and vegetarian options in some areas. Unless you’re comfortable…

    Amman, the capital city of Jordan, has been facing a stray cat problem for many years. The issue is particularly prevalent in the older, more densely populated areas of the city where stray cats can be seen wandering the streets in search of food and shelter. While the exact number of stray cats in Amman is unknown, it is estimated to be in the thousands. Skip the blog and head straight to the AmmanHealthSave movement donation page The stray cat population has become a major concern for public health and safety, as these animals can transmit diseases and pose a threat to public safety by causing car accidents or other…

    Khaothong Hill Restaurant – Aonang’s best hidden gem

    28/01/2023

    Khaothong Hill Restaurant, located in the popular tourist destination of Ao Nang in Krabi, Thailand, is a hidden gem that offers staggering sunset views of the surrounding islands and the Andaman Sea. This hill (and its accompanying cafe) are a must-visit for anyone looking for a unique and scenic experience that’s slightly off the beaten path. Whilst the viewpoint is still (in my mind) a lesser-known haunt of beautiful Krabi, its popularity is quickly growing as TikTok travellers post about its purple sky scenes and space to sit down for a fantasy day of remote working. You’ll get a quick preview of the spectacular sunset we got during our visit…

This vegan menu overview is what I received during travel in their Economy class seating. My other airline food reviews: Air France vegan meal review and Finnair’s vegan meal service Vegan snacks on my Qatar Airways flight I’m afraid it didn’t get off to a good start for Qatar Airways. Our flight began with a drink and snack service. The snack? Source cream and chive pretzels (containing milk). There was no alternative. Whilst it was only…

    Whilst planning our 6-day road trip around Jordan, it was proving difficult to find answers to many of our questions (especially those about connecting from Amman, to Petra, to Wadi Rum). I scoured blogs, messaged creators on Instagram and Tiktok, and even sent questions to the more prominent female travel groups on Facebook looking for answers in order to create the perfect Jordan itinerary.  For the most part, I think we achieved it! However, post-trip, I wanted to get down the learns and things I’d change, to make it easier for those still planning their road trip around this beautiful Middle Eastern gem. In this post, I’ve tried to break our…

Skip forward 20+ years, and I’d quite happily spend my two days off browsing the (now very fashionable) independent plant shops of Edinburgh – throw in a cafe, and you might never see me again!
