I have just returned from three heavenly carb-filled days in the Italian city of Milan. Although I did spend one day in Italy last year, this was my first ‘official’ trip, so I was beyond excited to finally visit this beautiful country properly.

Madrid is a city I have always wanted to visit, so when a friend asked me if I wanted to go with her this month, I jumped at the chance! It was a laid back few days, eating and drinking our way around the city and I enjoyed putting some photography tips, that my hubby had taught me, to the test.
