Comfort meets Sustainability at Reflections Eco Reserve | Where to stay in Wilderness, South Africa
Arriving at Reflections Eco Reserve Pulling up in the darkness, we weren’t sure Google Maps had led us to the right place. A winding dirt track led us through the reserve; dimly lit, we hadn’t topped 40 km/ph in case adventurous tortoises wandered onto the road. But in front of us was a post with…

My love-hate relationship with cheap flights
I’ve mentioned a few times on this blog that I love cheap flights. However, I don’t know whether that’s strictly true anymore. A couple of years ago I managed to get a return flight to Menorca (a Spanish Baleaeric Island in the Mediterranean) for just £20. I had an amazing six days in the sun…
