I’m slowly starting to piece together my next trip (woohoo!) for June-July 2025. Between being peak season and the weather, I’m thinking to visit the UK and Ireland over the alternate option of Italy (as an Australian, I am sure I will still be cold in Scotland even in summer!).

We were well-prepared for our departure on March 28, 2020. Well, you don’t have to guess how that turned out!
