Across 2015 and 2016, so far I have lived on the island of Tenerife for eight and a half months. During this time, I have explored many different corners, experiencing both the tourist traps and the local hangouts. A lot of people who travel to Tenerife are holidaymakers. It is particularly popular with the British. … Continue reading HOW TO DO TENERIFE LIKE A LOCAL

THE MOJITO GUIDE TO TENERIFE
Last summer in Mallorca, it was all about sangria. This summer in Tenerife, I'm all about the mojito. I have fallen in love. Last September, whilst I was still in Mallorca, I tried my very first mojito. I like it but I stayed true to my favourite Long Island iced tea and a sip of … Continue reading THE MOJITO GUIDE TO TENERIFE
SNORKELLING AT TURTLE BAY
Back in the Autumn, a friend of mine went snorkelling with a professional photographer and uploaded some incredible photos of her swimming with turtles. She interacted with them so closely and the pictures were amazing, I wanted to do it too. She told me she went to Turtle Bay which for some reason I assumed … Continue reading SNORKELLING AT TURTLE BAY
HIPPY BAY
Considering I've lived in the area for a combined total of 5 months now, there is still a great deal I don't know about the area and a hell of a lot left to discover. When you live somewhere, you take the area for granted and only truly appreciate it once it's gone. I found … Continue reading HIPPY BAY

Parks, woods, forests, hills, we've got loads of … Continue reading HELL’S GORGE

Chilling on the beach on our day off a few weeks ago, we were debating what to do. We have already been invited to an event during … Continue reading THE PERFECT DAY OFF
BEING MATURE ADULTS FOR A CHANGE
Every week when Monday rolls around, the Tuesday crew prepare for what we have termed as Messy Monday. This basically consists of a wild night out with no inhibitions as we have the following day off to recover... And not have to show our face at work as so many of our other messy nights … Continue reading BEING MATURE ADULTS FOR A CHANGE
FIESTA DE COLORES
It's surprising what you find out on taxi journeys to your night out. We have befriended a taxi driver who picks us up when we call him, gives us information about local events and tips about places to go. The night we met him was a standard Saturday night heading to Veronica's when we piled … Continue reading FIESTA DE COLORES
THE WATER KINGDOM
According to TripAdvisor, Siam Park is the number 1 water park in the world. As part of my job, I have to sell tickets to this place so I could easily just type out the spiel I use for it in my welcome meetings and you would be sold on it. However, thanks to my … Continue reading THE WATER KINGDOM
