Fabulous Finds – Chateaus…Apartements…Maisons…Villas…,

New Year Resolutions…love ’em! Mine always involve another opportunity to explore some part of the world as budget allows. Do you have travel in your sights too?

As we blogged our 2011 travels around France and Italy (archives May-June) so many of you commented on the quality of our fabulous accommodation and those of you planning a similar journey have since been asking for details.

Thanks to our trip coordinator extraordinaire and travelling companion…the beautiful Jenny (Fifi), our journey became so much more than just sightseeing…and eating…and drinking. Carefully researched, selected and booked in advance, Jenny ensured we placed weary heads on feathered pillows in digs that were beautifully appointed, close to the action, just a little bit special, often quite unique yet still within mid range budget. I’m still telling her she should make a career out of this!

With your queries in mind and drawing from our archived details, January’s blogging will be devoted to sharing best of the best.

Looking forward to hearing your comments (click on comments below post), please share your own faves too, if you agree with mine feel free to FB Like/Share.

Oh! the love of a good Blog…

Looking for inspiration on all things bright and chirpy, sage and wise, awe-inspiring and enchanting?

People across the globe are busy sharing their personal inspirations via their blogs so why not take advantage of your technological capability to tap into this rich tapestry of creative minds?  A decorating idea, a beautiful piece of art, twee piece of prose, breathtaking photography…all there for us to enjoy and just a click or swipe away when previously only accessed via generational sharing, chats over the back fence or lovingly hand written letters.

Being an aspiring blogger myself, naturally I wanted to see what the world was blogging on about and, being time poor, sourced the most effective and efficient way to do s
o via a few very clever apps. I now knock my breakfast coffee back while getting my daily fix from a wonderful little app called ‘StumbleUpon’. Try it. Only takes a sec. A quick trawl and once you’ve identified fave themes you’ll be hooked. And while your there, grab another app called ‘Pinterest’ for an ongoing visual feast! Of course you already have ‘Flipboard’ loaded? Essential! Absolutely essential!

AND…if you’d like an immediate photography and food fix, why not get your heart started via a Blog of Sydney origins, the link originally sent by my beloved traveling companion Fifi prior to our travels: heneedsfood.com.  I love John Bek’s  Zenfolio and, being a bit of a foodie reveler myself, am quite enthralled by his Blog. Enjoy!
