It may be the playground of the rich but is it possible to visit Monaco for the day without a millionaire’s budget? Of course it is! We hopped on the train from Menton to visit Monaco without breaking the bank!
Montenegro stole my heart on a drizzly day trip from Dubrovnik, so we finally made a return visit, this time for a relaxing week-long stay in Kotor.
Fingers on buzzers! The feel-good musical Starter for Ten is big-hearted, fun, witty and nostalgic, and is playing at Birmingham Rep now!
If Wes Anderson created a holiday destination, then Menton would be it. It’s effortlessly chic, pastel-hued and citrus-scented. Just like A Brummie Home and Abroad.

What began as a laid-back week in Kotor turned into a spontaneous road trip through Montenegro’s most scenic (and winding) roads — our destination: the breathtaking Lake Skadar.
“Most people come to Gdańsk because of the pretty Instagram photos or cheap Ryanair flights” Our walking tour guide had it spot on. I felt more than a little seen, after all, both of those things had influenced my choice of Gdańsk for a December city break destination. But we were soon to learn that there is so much more to Gdańsk than picture postcard scenes and popular pierogi restaurants.
Riding the Kotor-Lovćen Cable Car – and the subsequent alpine coaster ride and spritz-with-a-view – was one of the highlights of our week in Montenegro. The views from the top are truly breathtaking – and all without much effort 😉
