A Weekend in Weimar
Having studied Goethe intensively for a year at university, Weimar had long since been on my list of places to visit in Germany. Finally realising a trip to the famous city was somewhat of a dream for me, especially finally visiting Goethe’s house after having watched a detailed video tour of it last year in class. […]
Lost in Leipzig
Hello, my name’s Beth and I’m terrible with directions. With this in mind, and with the knowledge that I had really done very little preparation in terms of looking at maps and other important things like where to go, I arrived in Leipzig on Saturday with nothing more than an unnecessarily overfilled backpack, and a lot […]
24 Hours in Bamberg
Last weekend I was given the opportunity to spontaneously visit the beautiful city of Bamberg in Bavaria. And when I say spontaneously, I mean like 4-5 days notice because for me that is very spontaneous. I seized the chance with both hands and enjoyed a wonderful, jam-packed stay in the UNESCO world heritage site, exploring the […]
A Weekend in Berlin
A couple of weeks ago I travelled to Berlin to meet two of my friends who had flown in from the UK for a weekend getaway. It was a lovely break and it was really fun to do some sightseeing in another city. (Dresden, I love you, but it’s been a while.) I’ve always loved Berlin – […]
Exploring Dresden: Großer Garten
Just when I was beginning to fear that winter had decided to throw caution to the wind and jump forwards a couple of months, today thankfully proved me wrong, and the entire city has been bathing in a glorious autumnal sunshine. With more good weather promised to come, I decided to make the most of it and […]
A Week in the Lake District
To celebrate the end of exams, dissertations and, in turn, university (eek!), my friends and I planned a trip to the Lake District to stay in a small cottage not far from Windermere. It was an amazing week, complete with terrible map reading, unexpected mountain climbing, excessive tea drinking, no phone signal or internet, and, […]
A Sunny Day in London Town
I’m aware that my posts are becoming increasingly photography based, which is not something I intended, but something that I’m enjoying nonetheless… With that out of the way, I spent a sunny day in London last week with my family wandering along the river and taking some photos. We also went up the Shard to […]
A Walk in the Woods
Spring is finally here in the UK and I’m home in Hertfordshire for the Easter holidays. I took a few photos on a Sunday afternoon family walk the other week. There was a beautiful sunset and I couldn’t resist a cheeky few sun spot photos too…
A Day in the Dales
I love living in Yorkshire and I had the opportunity to visit the surrounding countryside at the weekend with some friends. Cue climbing on rocks, frolicking in fields and a great pub lunch. I love the layering of colours in the first few photographs. It was a misty start to the morning but the sun […]
My Trip to Edinburgh
In which I forget which one’s Arthur’s Seat, spend a lot of money on tea and fall in love with a beautiful city. Yesterday I had the pleasure of visiting Edinburgh: a city I have been dying to visit ever since coming to York. It’s only two and a half hours by train, and after […]
