3 dogs, 2 humans, 1 van, touring around Europe sniffing out adventures
From the comfort of my bed I could look straight through the sunroof to a cracking view of the TV tower. At only 5 degrees I was tempted to stay snuggled up in bed and I doubt the pups would have minded. However Markles is a restless soul and doesn’t believe in duvet days, so …

Quite often the highlight of our day is something completely unplanned and just a wonderful surprise. This morning we had a knock on our door at 7am, and a couple of builders asked if we could shuffle so they could park their work vans for a job opposite. We happily obliged (its illegal to wild …

Despite a deep clean and half a bottle of febreeze my sofabed still smells funky. The dogs seem to forget then catch a whiff of the puke patch and deep sniff it again. Its literally the only thing I can’t chuck in the washing machine so I will have another go at deep cleaning it …
Starting your week, waking up next to two huge piles of dog puke is pretty grim…and also an illustration of my epic deep sleeping skills. Mabel stole some food yesterday so we are guessing it was her, but she seemed happier as the day went on. Big thanks to the hubby for clearing it up! …
Compared to Budapests 30+ minute bus/tram ride into the city, the smaller towns are so much easier in a motorhome. We had parked overnight 2 minutes walk from the centre of Eger, near a lovely park which was perfect for our morning dog walk. The pups were in crazy playful mode, rolling and ‘fighting’ in …
With three pups snuggled up on the bed with me it can be very hard to get up and going in the morning. It seems we have all adapted to a slower start. Still needs must, it was our last day in Budapest and we wanted to visit the Centre Market. As a big foodie, …
They say you should do the worst things first and today I had to buckle down and do something I was dreading. As a dog groomer I have a minimum quarterly agreement with my pups that they have a bath (Mabel rolls in poo so has far more). Last time I tried to bath Ernest …
Typically when we visit a new city we head straight for the centre and soak up the atmosphere. In Budapest we took a different approach and took the Zugliget Chairlift to Normafa Park for a fun steep ride up the hillside and a lovely view over the city. Once back at the van, I got …
Wow the Banská Štiavnica Calvary is stunning! We really hadn’t got a true grasp of what a wonderful position it had. As morning walks go it was a true gem. Mark and I then walked into the main town in search of coffee, but actually found a wonderful tea house, with around 50 different teas …
