Over the last three years, my family and I had many concerts to go to but because of covid, had to wait til this year (I also bought concert tickets in February). 5 concerts in total in 2 weeks! I experienced - in order - Harry Styles, Queen, Elton John, Billie Eilish & Ed Sheeran !!! I also did the Van Gogh Immersive Experience , Proud Cabaret , Leadenhall Market , Spitalfields Market & Greenwich Market . I stayed at  https://www.hilton.com/ . First time staying at this fairly new hotel. Right in the middle of the city and central to all the venues of the concerts and attractions I wanted to do. I stayed there in a double room with a sofa bed (for when friends stayed too) for the duration of the trip with breakfast included. I got room service on the nights I was too tired to go somewhere for dinner. I went on the tube (which I hated but not as much as my first time), walked, used uber (very safe and secure) & https://www.blacklane.com/en/ taxis for concert nights....

My cousin lives with his wife and kids in Wales. Not only had I not seen them in 3yrs, I’d never been to Wales except camping with school. So during their half term, I went to see them. I had about two days to myself because the others were filled with hiking (!!), shopping, days out and easter egg hunts. I was exhausted! I stayed at this airbnb, https://www.airbnb.co.uk/ . Tiny outbuilding with kitchen, shower room, bed and dining table. Absolutely lovely, definitely recommend. (There is a residential dog too)! M y mum drove me (from Sussex, England) as it was too far and complicated to do my first solo train journey. When I was there, I was within walking distance to my family’s home but when I did take myself out, I used https://www.wrexhamtaxi.co.uk/ taxis

Skiing was AMAZING! I went skiing in France with https://www.accessibledreams.co.uk/ - a group of differently disabled people. I went in 2019 but only for ‘sit-ski’ so this year I challenged myself to try normal skiing and OMG loved it! Hard work though! I went with my dad (which is strange because I got so used to adventuring with my mum) and we stayed in http://www.araucaria-hotel.com/en/ . Twin room with ensuite, breakfast and dinner included in overall costs. Great hotel with nice rooms, big bar (!!), entertainment area and prime location (right on the slopes). Amazing food too.. *Fun fact: We flew from London Heathrow to Geneva not France! I was so excited for this trip & sharing it with lovely people I hadn’t seen since 2019. However, I HATE London Heathrow. Why? Because it is manic and have to wait for ages and luggage takes forever! Flying to Geneva went smoothly but the coach ride was soo long and we didn’t get to the hotel til 10pm. Luckily they kept the buffet open for...

Hey guys,  I'm sorry for not posting here on Blogger for a while. I got home from Spain on Saturday 5th and am going to France this Saturday (12th) for a week of skiing...  Keep looking at my Instagram @cp.travelandphoto for new posts!!! Xxx

☀️Tuesday 22nd February☀️ 📍Mojacar📍 I suppose most people relax on their days off. Well that didn't happen yesterday.  I walked SO MUCH yesterday and now I don't want to get up. Went to the Sunshine Cafe for lunch, walked all the way to @heladeriablu so treated myself to a waffle, then walked all the way to Imperial Palace for dinner. 🥵😴

☀️Monday 21st February☀️ 📍Paws Patas📍 I am not a morning person by any means but what a way to start my day!
