The Monday Piece - Aperol in Italy

This week's Monday Piece is on Aperol in Italy! I'm absolutely not a big drinker, but this summer I was pretty late on the bandwagon of drinking Aperol Spritz... I couldn't resist a glass or too with friends whilst relaxing in the sunshine, it's so fresh and dry I'm a big fan :).

The Monday Piece - Ludlow Castle

This week's Monday Piece is on Ludlow Castle! This weekend my siblings, Nick and I took a trip out to Ludlow so we could explore the castle and it's grounds. Shropshire is such a pretty county and the little towns often have markets on during the weekend too so it's always worth a look round to see what you can pick up. We'd not been to the castle before so we were ready to learn some local history and what the castle had been though since the Norman Conquest of the 11th century. The motte and bailey design is still evident even after many centuries of alteration, it was interesting to look through the layers and climb up the tiny staircases to reach views of the Marches and other counties!

The Monday Piece - Venice Gondola Ride

This week's Monday Piece is on Venice Gondola ride! Our August trip to Italy feels like so long ago... So I'm reminiscing by sharing these photos of our Gondola ride. It was so ridiculously hot in Venice that day so we spent the day sightseeing from as many shades spots as possible - the vibe was still awesome though and as there were four of us we thought it'd be great to enjoy a Gondola ride together in the sunshine! It's not as expensive as other tourists make out, we paid about €15 each for 40 minutes which I thought was pretty good value, likewise with the food - if you eat in local spots the prices are actually fairly cheap :).

The Monday Piece - Alcatel Gift Guide

This week's Monday Piece is on Alcatel gift guide! This year Alcatel released three key premium handsets, the Alcatel 3 2019, Alcatel 1X and Alcatel 3L all priced for just under £150. Shopping for a new smartphone whether it's for yourself or a gift is like a minefield... There's so much choice and with contracts becoming a popular option it's tough to figure out if you're getting a good deal. One of the amazing things about the Alcatel range is that you can grab a bargain handset that's packed full of features and of quality design! Definitely worth a look if you're treating someone special :).
