L'Arc de Triomphe
A typical tourists go-see in Paris, the Arc de Triomphe is a very central and touristy attraction. Even so, its worth a look. You can go in via an underground tunnel that takes you under THAT roundabout (if you drive you should try doing it just for the experience but...

Plage du Fortin
This lovely wee beach is just a 15 minute bus ride along the coast from Marseille. It is the perfect place to go for a party, to sunbathe, to chill during the day or to go and have a BBQ. When we arrived there were people playing music at the top of the beach which gave...

Louis Vutton Foundation
We went to the Louis Vutton Foundation in June 2017, when they were in the middle of an African art exhibition. This was particularly interesting as there was lots of shows and pieces from the apartheid and various dictatorships, as well as lots of woven pieces, masks...

Hootananny
Hootanannys is a pub near the city centre of Inverness. For food, this is a nice place for affordable, good traditional scottish food, for example pies and fish n chips, but also for tasty treats such as vodka cheesecake. The drinks are pretty regular although...

British Pipe Band Championships
The British Pipe Band Championships are held every year, and this year they took place in Paisley, near Glasgow. This was a HUGE event - with large pipe bands (meaning groups of people who play drums and bagpipes) coming from all over the British Isles to compete. ...

Le mur de je t'aime
Le mur de je t'aime, or the wall of love, is a beautiful large chalk board with 'I love you' and other declarations of love written in over 250 different languages. Located just down the hill from the Sacre Coeur in Montmartre, it is a very touristy area but this wall...

Bar Soba
This is a great place to go for some very tasty, very hipster food. They have lots of vegan and gluten free options, and the main menu has some delicious pad thais and curries. On weekdays until 17h they have a 2 for 1 offer on meals if you have a student card and on...

Masala Twist
Glasgow is said to be the curry capital of Europe, with many famous dishes such as tikka masala originating there. At Masala twist there is a delicious lunchtime buffet for £6-7 with a student card, including a variety of curries, sides and starters. I would recommend...

Oran Mor
The old church provides a lovely backdrop to a nice pint or a plate of fish n chips. The Oran Mor often hosts some great bands from all over the world, so check it out online before you go to see who is on! Drinks are on the expensive side but this is a nice bar and it...

The Riverbed of the River Turia
This beautiful park used to be a river than ran through the city. It is now an ideal area to take a break and go to chill, with lots of water installations and shady green areas, or sunbathing spots if you fancy somewhere quieter than the beach. There are several parks...

l'Umbracle
Science centre and botanic garden by day, club by night. By day this is the main sight to see in Valencia. It is formed by a few giant white, modern structures that look very arty and statue-esque, with a few pools in between them. The botanic gardens are really pretty,...

Playa Cala Comtesa
Unlike the busy, tourist filled beaches you'll find all over the island, this is an amazing little hidden bay you can basically only get to by boat - but it is worth it! This is a short stretch of sand surrounded by goat covered rocky hills, with a little seafood shack...

Txapela
This is a lovely pinchos place to go to just after you visit Casa Mila - you can literally still see Mila from the outdoor seating area! The pinchos are super cheap but also pretty fancy: lots of fresh seafood and fancy pastries and avocado. It is delicious! And a huge...

Tingle
Wether you're looking for some mad pre drinks with your pals or a cheeky cocktail and a chat, this bar is a seriously underrated Glasgow club/bar. They have a huge range of shooters (basically mixed shots) that range from tasty to dangerously strong and all for £1.50...

Bistrot Victoires
Just a 15 minute walk from the Louvre, this cute, cosy bistro is in a central location yet somehow always manages to have a free table and super fast, friendly service. I loved this place because they serve some very good traditional french dishes (I would recommend...
