Istanbul has for a long time, been the heart and soul of Turkey. Boasting of more than 14 million official residents, the city is the only one in the world that spans two continents; Europe and Asia. I love Istanbul and admit to a major addiction for this characteristic destination.

So you’re travelling to Istanbul and you have no idea where to begin. That’s understandable, the city is massive (it spans two continents!) and it has so much to offer in terms of mosques, markets, museums and foreign culinary delights!

I love old places. I love hearing the stories about days gone by. I love imagining them in their glory. Havana is a great city for this. We spent twenty-four hours in this beautiful city while on our recent trip to Varadero. The resort was fun, but we needed to experience some real culture.

Cuba Absolutely
Latinos have a different concept of personal space and Cubans, as is their wont, take it to an extreme. Men embrace and greet each other with kisses of the cheek, female friends walk hand in hand, and my best salsa partners have been girlfriends.

One Step 4 Ward
My hotel was a little out of town, so we took a cab into the main square and met outside the Hotel Inglaterre for one pm. The (cute) guide was waiting for us as soon as we arrived. Aniika, a twenty-something Cuba with perfect English introduced herself and walked us over to our sexy ride for the next next hour and a half.

On the Luce
Paris is one of my favourite European cities – I usually try and spend a few days out there most years, and was lucky enough to spend last autumn house-sitting there. But even though I had somewhere to stay, Paris is an easy place to spend money – with fantastic restaurants, shops and wine bars on every corner, and the entrance fees to all those world-class museums and attractions which soon start to add up.
