Do more of what you love: and if that’s going to the ballet by yourself to see Swan Lake for the 87th time, so be it. Earlier this month, I attended the opening night of English National Ballet's Swan Lake at the London Coliseum. I love going to the ballet at Christmas each year, but looking forward to one of my favourite ballets in January is a rather lovely tradition too...

Val Thorens
Am I the tardiest travel blogger in the world? I may just be. Because, as I write from the Alps in the middle of our skiing holiday, I'm not sharing photos from today, or even from earlier this week, but from last year's ski trip. The problem with blogging just for the fun of it, as opposed to content arranged with brands, is that there's no real urgency: one year on, the mountains are still there. So, please forgive my tardiness as I share snaps from last January, about our third time in my favourite ski resort: Val Thorens.

Hotel Koh-I Nor, Val Thorens
Last January we headed back to Les Trois Vallées for eight days in the largest ski resort (and one of my favourites places) in the world. We were last there in 2016 and stayed in Val Thorens again, this time at the luxurious Hotel Koh-I Nor.

Berlin Christmas Markets
And just like that, it's all over. As the time has come to pack away the decorations for another year, I'm reminiscing about our trip to Berlin for the Christmas markets last winter. We were in an Uber on the way to Tegel airport when the driver checked which terminal our flight would be going from, and informed us that it was in fact cancelled due to the snow at Heathrow, despite the British Airways app saying otherwise. Hours on the phone to BA and a long queue at the airport later, we were rebooked on the earliest available flight and our three day weekend became five days. Stressful at the time, but rather nice having an extra 48 hours in one of my favourite cities.
