Places to add to your list of must-sees!
These are places that I think are above the rest and should be on everyone’s bucket list. Watch this list increase as I continue my adventures!
New York City, USA
New York is my absolute favourite city in the US. It is a great place to travel in every season and you can spend weeks here and not run out of things to do. From Central Park to Brooklyn Bridge, from the countless neighbourhoods to the endless nightlife options, New York never disappoints!

Rooftop bar at 230 5th Avenue
Road trip Iceland
I have never been more impressed and taken aback by any country in the world like I was with Iceland. Hire a car (it’s very easy) and drive just 30minutes outside of the capital Reykjavik and you will uncover the most beautiful landscapes you can possibly see.
