Escaping Brexit in Arjuzanx, France. About as far away from the UK you can drive with a toddler.

A Tuscan Escape

September 27, 2015 by madlennicolaus

Tuscany. Chianti. Pisa. Siena. Florence. Destinations for any entry level Italy lover. But how was it that in all our years of visiting Italy, we never made it to these fairytale locations? Were we saving the best for last without realising it!? So this month we spent 10 blissful days in the heart of Tuscany. And it was absolutely the best. That’s how I describe it. How was Tuscany? It was the best. Simple as that. From the rolling hills […]

Israel with a one year old

Visiting Israel with a toddler

June 26, 2015 by madlennicolaus

Beginning of this month we went to a rather unusual holiday destination, especially for parents of a toddler. Israel! We went for a wedding, but stayed for the ancient history and the Dead Sea! And also the beaches. Never forget the beaches. Israel is a country of opposites. A country where the old and the new are nestled uncomfortably beside each other. It’s hard to come here and not mention religion, so let’s get that out of the way quickly. The […]

Family trip to Voelklinger Huette

A World Heritage Site unlike any other

June 24, 2015 by madlennicolaus

This last weekend we flew on a Friday evening into Luxembourg and drove across the landscape to Saarbrücken and the baptism of my new godchild. So far, pretty normal. But along the way, we saw something that’s hard to describe. It looked like something from a book, or a nightmare or an alternate reality. Steel and iron, reaching into the sky like outstretched fingers. And all this, in the middle of a town. We made a note to look it […]

Le Clef Des Iles

The Last Holiday

January 18, 2014 by madlennicolaus

It began the way most holidays begin. A map, a cup of coffee and a pocketful of half imagined destinations. The ideal half imagined destination in question had to be between 20 and 30 degrees Celsius in darkest January. So Iceland, Canada and most of Northern Europe were straight off the list. Did I also mention it had to be an island? And that it had to be full of beaches, underwater life and local colour? That it had to be […]

Weekend Getaway from the Cornwall Moors of Altarnun to Mawgan Porth Bay

May 20, 2013 by madlennicolaus

It was two weeks and two continents ago, but it still lingers in my imagination. So here’s my latest travel tips for the loveliest corner of England: Cornwall. To begin, and always a good technique: share the planning! That way your trip is always varied and exciting. And at least one of you knows what’s happening. First hotel – selection by Matt: Jamaica Inn in the civil parish of Altarnun. “There would never be a gentle season here, thought Mary; either grim […]

So long and thanks for all the photographs

March 13, 2012 by madlennicolaus

I grew up with Kodak. I took my first photographs with an analogue camera and Kodak film. The brand was stamped all over the world on every convenience store, on every bus stop, and in every shopping street. Kodak was photography. And to me the br…
