The most romantic bridges in the world
Bridge There have always been romantic associations with bridges, dating back to ancient times. The bridge is one of our earliest technologies, and the mix of both form and function in the design is often a thing of beauty. These functional structures which join one place to another allow us to overcome an obstacle and create a feeling of connection which could explain why they have become a familiar and popular location for romantic strolls, photo opportunities and declarations of love. A tradition echoed across the world, which is gradually being phased out due to the damage it causes, is the idea of the love locks. Two lovers inscribe their…

A taste of the best Ski & Snowboard Festivals across Europe in 2020
Here in the UK, we love a good festival; any excuse to stomp around a field with friends, listening to music, enjoying the rural landscape, hoping for sunshine but counting on rain. We are, after all, the proud proprietors of Glastonbury (thanks to festival boss Michael Eavis) which welcomes over 200 000 visitors each day and is one of the largest festivals in the world, alongside big names like Coachella (California) and Sziger (Budapest). Size, however, does not necessarily equal enjoyment – Often the reality is desperately searching for your tent in the pitch black, spending hours in queues waiting for drinks and grimy toilet facilities, or losing your friends…

The benefits of a Vegan lifestyle
Inspired by World Vegan Day on the 1st of November last year, I embarked on my first attempt at becoming a Vegan. It was with a degree of trepidation that I decided to take the plunge and adopt a plant-based diet. Still, having watched several interesting documentaries and read various convincing articles, not to mention hearing some poignant news reports, I was excited to adopt this new, environmentally conscious lifestyle. It felt good to go through my cupboards and filter out any food containing animal products (which I donated to the local food bank), not to mention the embarrassingly large number of out of date items gathering dust in the…
