Our travel stories

Postcard from Southern Italy & More

Southern Italy & More, August 2022.

Our group of 6 friends started off on a custom built adventure to Europe. 

After a few nights in London, Paris and Florence we headed to the Amalfi Coast, where we did usual visits, Pompeii, Capri, Positano, but also got off the beaten track & had a private cooking class on a local farm, complete with homemade limoncello..... "delissimo". 

Postcard from Kerala

What a better way to navigate the waterways of Southern India than on a converted rice barge! 


Postcard from Singapore

Singapore was hot, beautiful and another Bucket list destination.
