Discover Vietnam

Discover Vietnam destinations with our travel guides for the perfect trip to Vietnam. 

Full of dramatic natural wanders, cascading waterfalls, striking rice terraces and bustling cities Vietnam is a country full of adventure. Whether you’re planning a motorbike tour of the whole country or just a few days in the capital, Hanoi, you’re bound to be drawn in by the extraordinary sights, smells and sounds of this unique and beautiful country. 

Spend some time in the popular cities of Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City where you’ll be able to taste of the best pho around as well as master the art of crossing the street- the sea of motorbikes doesn’t make it an easy feat. At the old Imperial capital Hue, you can explore some hidden gems, cultural ruins and learn about the rich history of Vietnam. 

Make sure not to miss the beautiful town of Hoi-An, a hotspot for local tailoring and crafts as well as the sandy beaches of Danang. 

Finally head north for some of the country’s real highlights, a cruise around Halong Bay- one of the most beautiful bays in the world as well as hiking your way through the rice terraces of Sapa in Vietnam’s Highlands. 

Vietnam destinations are extremely varied with beautiful, rugged landscapes contrasting with modern cities. One thing is for sure however, you won’t want to miss the incredible food this country has to offer from steaming bowls of pho to crusty banh mi.

The more I read about food, diet and health online, the more confused I get. ‘Experts’ pushing diets and programs that aren’t based on any kind of scientific evidence, fad diets, opinions and then there are all the ‘scientific’ articles to get through. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you have ever launched yourself into this world, researching what might be best for your health (which I’m pretty sure you have) then you might have also been left feeling confused and demotivated. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I feel that every 10 minutes someone’s talking about the best new way to eat and stay healthy. Of course not all of it is fiction but going through it all and even absorbing it kinda feels like a full time job. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There are a few things that have helped me however when it comes to this diet and wellness overwhelm and I wanted to share them with you today. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Firstly our diet and what we eat is very personal. No one will know more about what works for you than you so don’t take on diets and programs just because other people are trying them out. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Secondly, just like the fashion industry has trends, the world of wellness and food is also beginning to see these trends. In the last 15 years so many fad diets and trends have surfaced only to be deeply buried again a few years later. These trends are just businesses that earn individuals a lot of money so be weary of them. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Trust what’s worked for humans for thousands of years. Before the invention of processed foods what did people eat? Just ask your grandparents what and how they ate. It’s this type of eating that has worked for human beings for thousands of years. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If in doubt always circle back to natural, organic, fresh food that comes directly from the earth. ✨🙏
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have you ever felt overwhelmed when it comes to learning more about health and diet? What’s worked for you? 🙏🤗

Crisp winter walks in Alberobello. 

This is one of Puglia’s most visited towns, famous for its unique trullo architecture, these small dwellings go back centuries. 

I couldn’t help myself coming back in winter and exploring it all again. 

Have you heard about Alberobello? ✨

Welcome (back) to Puglia, Italy. 

So excited to be back in Puglia and making it my home base for the foreseeable future ✨ 

After visiting for the first time last year, I noticed there’s definitely something that keeps pulling me back here. I can’t wait to dive deep into some new projects here, both long and short term and take you all along with me. 

Being here in January can’t be more different compared to summer but I super impatient for more sun and to explore more.

Who has plans to visit the south of Italy in 2023?
