The Duoro valley near Porto was absolutely stunnin The Duoro valley near Porto was absolutely stunning with its rolling hills and vineyard terraces reminiscent of the rice terraces of Bali. We had some amazing wines including some very interesting aged white ports. Definitely recommend trying the regular white port with tonic for a refreshing drink. We stayed at @torelavantgarde hotel which we really enjoyed. #porto #duorovalley #duorowine #winestagram #winetasting #springsunshine #portugal #luxurytravel #luxuryhotel

Absolutely loved visiting the cities of Charleston Absolutely loved visiting the cities of Charleston and Savannah. Flew into Savannah via Philadelphia on @british_airways and AA. Charleston is a small city that’s very walkable and upmarket. Great foodie scene and speakeasys too. Lots of boutique shops, stunning historic buildings and full of Southern charm. I stayed at the @rencharleston which was like a boutique hotel with a great location.  Savannah is around 2 hours drive south and a simple journey. It’s a bigger city with a younger feel thanks to the university there and a bit more touristy. Lots of beautiful leafy squares and old buildings with working gas lamps. Recommend a tour to understand the history of the city. #charleston #savannah #southcarolina #historichomes #southerncharm #luxurytravel #travelblogger

Today’s review is the new Hilton Dubai Palm Jume Today’s review is the new Hilton Dubai Palm Jumeirah hotel. Unlike some hotels it is still close to everything on the mainland in the Jumeirah and Marina areas as well as the malls. With one of the longest pools in Dubai and a large beach area, it’s definitely worthy of its 5* ranking. Check out the full review on the website now.
