Read MoreWhere in the world am I?
I have just returned from a break in one of the world’s busiest embarkation ports and a major port of call. However when I showed my photo to my colleagues I was surprised by how many people asked me where I’d been, particularly as I work among some very well travelled people. I was lucky […]
Read MoreTravel Insurance for the over 80’s….and youngsters too.
Finding travel insurance as you reach a certain age can be a struggle and even though people are living longer and fuller lives many insurance companies will not cover you once you reach 80 years even if you are as fit as a fiddle.

Florida has always been a popular place to visit and offers lots of different ways to holiday. It should lend itself perfectly to a twin centre holiday. What better than a week in Orlando taking in Disney, Universal and International Drive, lots of full on excitement and big energetic sightseeing days. Follow this with a weeks Caribbean cruise, […]
