Like so many, our summer adventures were closer to home this year and, as nothing has been certain, we held off booking a camping trip until the start of the school summer holidays. We decided to head back to North Devon, which is an easy two and a bit hour drive from Bath, and stay…
Top 5 Highlights: Family Skiing in the Val di Fassa

Family Bucket List Challenge
The AliKats Bucket List Challenge has inspired me to think about what I would put on my bucket list. We love being outside and traveling, having a young family makes the planning all the more important but it doesn’t stop us from getting out there! It might take us a few years to tick these…
Snowboarding in the SkiWelt
The girls trip is now an official annual fixture! In 2018 we headed to Western Italy and explored some of the local ski fields of the Piedmont region, in 2019 we spent a long weekend in St-Jean de Sixt, France. For 2020 we had the opportunity to try Austria and it’s largest connected ski area,…
A Family Adventure in Denmark
“Why Denmark?” Everyone asked when I told them what our summer holiday destination was! OK, so it was a bit of a random choice but I’ve always wanted to explore Scandinavia and Denmark seemed like a good place start – its always top of the charts when it comes to the “happiest places to live”…

Review: Wear Colour Women’s Ida Snow Jacket
The time had come – my well-worn Bonfire snowboarding jacket was starting to show its age (it had lasted the best part of eight winters) and so I needed to find myself a new one! I hate buying new clothes, especially expensive new clothes, so after much searching online, I was set on the Wear…
Snowboarding in La Clusaz & Le Grand Bornand
After last years girlie ski weekend we were all keen to make it an annual fixture on the calendar. This year we decided to head to St-Jean de Sixt and the ski areas of La Clusaz and Le Grand Bornand. So after almost a year in the planning, a last-minute accommodation cancellation and 10cm of…

Feeling the need to do something a bit more creative, I finally got round to putting a few sketches I’ve been working on into production! All feature a little bear and I’ve kept illustrations cute, clean and simple. From a superhero to a sleeping baby bear there is something for everyone. Little Superhero features bear…
