The UK was battered by snow, wind and bad weather with temperatures plummeting below freezing in most parts of the country; I was dreaming off hotter temperatures. With knee deep in winter I was feeling a little de-energised and experiencing winter blues, but luckily I received an email with the invitation to a group press trip to stay at Old Course Hotel and experience the newly renovated Kohler Waters Spa. As soon as I saw the email, I RSVPed immediately as nothing could top beating winter blues more than warming spa treatments and uplifting scents.

Tucked away on the northeast coast of Bali on a remote black sandy beach, Spa Village Resort Tembok Bali provides the perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in peace and tranquillity.

The setting alone, with its pristine air, clear water sea and black sand beach is enough to make anyone feel better. In an entirely unexpected spot of north Bali, overlooking the black sandy beaches on one side and mountains on the other side is the beautiful and serene Spa Village Resort, Tembok Bali

I had the fantastic opportunity to explore north Bali and stay at the beautiful Spa Village Resort, Tembok Bali during my Bali Trip.

It was October 29^th, midday, and we had just reached our destination in the province of Provence, France (which is just divine this time of the year by the way).

We looked at the board and it was indeed the boutique hotel we had booked for. Phew!

Last week I had the opportunity to try the vegan afternoon tea at La Suite West. To be honest I had never heard of vegan afternoon tea in London and when I was approached by La Suite West pr team I knew I had to take this opportunity.

I was beholding the beautiful sight of the city of Medina, struggling to grasp more and more when the car first pulled over in front of Hotel Riad Esprit Du Maroc. The sight of this temporary habitat was the harbinger of the feeling that this place is going to stay in my mind for my whole life. The moment we got there we were helped by the highly obliging and accommodating crew and we were smoothly ushered to the superior double rooms.
