When Tour Groups Make Sense
There are very few instances where I will take a tour group ahead of setting out on my own. This isn’t to say tours are necessarily bad or that nobody should ever take one, but more so that they just aren’t for me.

An Architecture Geek’s Guide to Exploring Tenerife
When I go away on holiday, there’s nothing I like to do more than to check out the architecture of the destination I’m in. Doing so, I think, is a great way to get under the skin of the place you’re staying in. In fact, I’ve got no shame in saying that I’m a bit of an architecture geek, even though I’m not actually an architect. If you’re like me, you should think about taking a trip to Tenerife; it’s a fantastic place to explore! Admittedly, wandering around Tenerife’s historic buildings may not be at the top of everybody’s list of things to do once their flight to the island…
