We get out of bed, head to the kitchen with weary eyes and load up the machine with freshly ground beans, or perhaps even just load them up into a coffee maker with grinder, before waiting to be energized for the day ahead. This is a morning ritual for most people, but have you ever stopped to consider just how far those beans have come so that they can give you the daily boost that you need? Whether you use instant coffee, a coffee maker or something a little bit fancier, the coffee itself will have traveled thousands of km to get to your cup, and here is where the world’s best coffee comes from. read more

Due to it’s location right at the end of the underground District line a lot of people are yet to visit the borough of Dagenham and Barking, but being part of London it is certainly a place that everyone needs to check out.

If you speak to anybody from Barking escorts they’ll tell you all about the great things you can see or do in the area. Here are some sights not be missed next time you’re in the area.

Check Out The History

Barking Abbey is the best place in town to go to see some history. It is the place where Barking started all the way back in 666. It’s a beautiful place to visit and even though some of it is in ruins they still have a certain charm to them. You’ll find the Abbey on Abbey Green, it is right next to St Margaret’s Church which was built in the 12 century. The church itself is a nice little place to stroll around too, especially if the weather isn’t too good outside. read more

I am always waxing lyrical to everyone I meet about how much I love Punta Mita and why I think they should go there on their next holiday. There really isn’t anything to dislike about the place, it’s heaven!

There are loads of hotels there but now Punta Mita vacation rentals are so good we are all spoiled for choice. So after you’ve sorted out your accommodation, here’s what you can look forward to.

World Famous Diving

Before I visited Punta Mita I had never been diving or even snorkeling, but there you will find some of the best diving in the world. It doesn’t matter, if like me, you have zero experience because they have some world class instructors to help you along. When you get under the sea you’ll be amazed by what you find – tropical fish, dolphins and even sea turtles. There’s also the chance to explore the reefs and underwater caves as well.

Catch the waves

Whether you’ve been catching the breaks for years or are a complete novice it doesn’t matter, it’s time to enjoy some of the best waves you can find just off the coast of Punta Mita. You can either grab your board and find the best places yourself or you can tag along with some experienced locals for a great day out.

Relaxing Beachside Towns

Even though Punta Mita is a real haven for tourists it’s not difficult to find yourself a quiet little spot to relax. There are many famous restaurants, a fantastic beach side promenade and even a new pier to stroll along. My favourite place to relax is the quiet surfing village of Sayulita, it’s the perfect place to go if you’re travelling with your family. Wherever you end up going you can be guaranteed to find lovely local tunes playing, sunset cocktails and mouth watering food whilst staring out at the ocean.

Have you been to Punta Mita? I would love to hear about your experiences, tips and stories. I think it’s great when we, as a travel community, can share our musings with others – I am sure it will make even more people want to visit this paradise as soon as possible.
