Sorry this is a bit late as we have been so busy. Florence, Pisa and Venice. Rome to Florence was the first of our train rides which took couple of hours, it was nice to sit back, relax and take in the countryside. Florence was a nice little town in which you could walk from one side to the next, all the streets are cobblestone and one way. All the shops and cafes are just what you imagined small as boutique. We felt very safe in Florence and all the locals wer...

We are in love!! Rome is an amazing city, I know it’s been a couple of days since we last spoke so I will just get down to business. Once we left Sofia we had a 5hr stop over in Istanbul. This must have been one of the most busiest airports I have seen, lots of different cultures everywhere. A couple of Iran children took a fascination to Em and kept on wanting to touch her hair, know her age, name and all about her. It was very cute really. We had the most a...

Well what can I say, it has been 2 big last days in Sofia!! Basically with those two days we have done shopping, more shopping and even more shopping!!

Yesterday we went on a day tour to Boyana Church and Rila Monastery. Boyana Church is in the richest suburb of Sofia Boyana, it’s truly amazing, th...

Yesterday was a big day, ( so sorry it’s going to be a big blog) It all started when we left Singapore with a massive 13.5 hour flight then we waited 4 hours in Frankfurt and boarded another plane to Sofia which was just over 2 hours. We were exhausted!! We had a scary moment at the airport in which some guy tried to take our luggage trolly that mum was pushing saying he was a taxi, then it turns out he was an illegal taxi driver. We had a couple of hours be...
