All across the world, movies are being made every day.

Foodie posts are why I love to go on holiday! Here are the best places we ate in Tsilivi, Zakynthos when we headed there on our Jet2Holidays trip that you can read all about here.
1. Aliotiko Restaurant
If you’re looking for serious portions, amazing value for money and traditional Greek food this is a great shout. We shared the courgette balls and calamari for starters and the traditional Greek platter which had stifado, moussaka, stuffed pepper, potatoes, pitta and salad. We were absolutely stuffed and couldn’t finish everything so it was definitely shareable between three comfortably. The food was really tasty and it was so nice to have some traditional Greek dishes. We spent around €45 for all of this food in a centre of town location including a drink each.
Get your boarding passes ready, it’s finally time for another set of travel blog posts and Reels. We’ve done a Jet2holidays package a few years ago to visit Dubrovnik which was actually the last time we went abroad (back in 2019!) and we were so impressed by it then. Everything worked like clockwork, we had no issues and there were always Jet2 reps around to help you if you have any questions. So, when Jet2holidays got in touch about a gifted stay with a review of the trip and the destination, it was a no brainer – we had to accept.
London is a large and crowded city, and London event managers know what people want, especially at New Year: a good ambiance, plenty of drinks, and a memorable and happy start to what will hopefully be a much better year than the last two! Here are some of the most popular spots where you can get away from the daily grind to enjoy a spectacular New Year celebration!
A hotel review? What is this, 2019? I know. Travels are back. Mini breaks are back. Hotel reviews are back and I’m so here for it. Recently we headed away for a trip for L’s birthday and as part of his gift I booked us a room at the Hart Shoreditch Hotel. We usually stay around Shoreditch area as we like the vibe, know our way around *roughly* and there were some restaurants that we wanted to try out in the local area.
The food in London is always top of our list when we visit, grabbing things that we usually wouldn’t be able to, heading to some of our favourite restaurants and finding new gems. Here’s a few favourites we ate during our latest trip!
When we arrived we headed, we checked in at the beautiful Hart Shoreditch hotel and then headed straight out to Spitalfields Market to grab some snacks and a quick drink. We ended up at Humble Crumble devouring an apple crumble and custard topped with meringue pieces – this was delicious. Obviously the cost of things in London is something we always forget about until we get there so £6.50 for a ‘regular’ crumble is pricey but it was very tasty. We then popped and had a quick drink at The Gun, a pub just opposite the Benefit side of Spitalfields Market – they had Beavertown on tap which is always a win.
We all know the feeling… You’ve left the house on the way to the airport, train station or you’re halfway down the motorway and BAM.
