We think London is one of the nicest and best cities in the world. There are uncountable things to do, it has many well-known highlights and no matter how often you go, there is always something new to discover. As we are based in the Netherlands, London is extremely easy and quick to reach. A weekend in London is often an easy decision.
This year, during our most recent trip to London, we wanted to add something new. Of course, there is nothing more classically British and English than a real high tea. According to social media there is one specific luxury high tea in London that stands out above the rest. I am talking about the London themed Afternoon Tea at the Dilly.

Traveling, discovering and exploring new places is one of our favorite things to do. City trips are perhaps our most favorite type of travel. We love to travel to a city for two or three days and fully explore every inch of that city.
Almost every city now offers one or more city passes to explore the city. We recently travelled to London and used the London Pass to explore the city during our stay.

“Join the navy and see the world”. An expression that has become the truth for me since I started as a sailor in 2023. Following the sunsets, you will arrive at the best destinations with your ship. Sometimes also places that you hadn't heard much about before. Cardiff was such a city for me.
I had a weekend to explore the city center and Cardiff bay area, which is in my opinion a good amount of time for a trip to this city. But located in the beautiful Wales, it is also an idea to include Cardiff in your road trip or train itinerary.

To shock fellow travelers while traveling the world I always told them the same story: I have been to Bangkok 17 times, almost 10 times to Indonesia, 3 times to most countries in South America, Australia and numerous times in the States, but although I grew up 3 hours from Paris and 4 hours from London I never made it to those cities. Attending WTM in London ruined my story, although I still have never seen the Eiffel Tower! :)
