Jet Set Tess

Just landed in Northern Ireland—first stop, the pub!

If Edinburgh is on your bucket list, there's no better time to visit than during .

The city comes alive with an incredible energy, as streets buzz with performers, artists, and visitors from all over the world.

The atmosphere is electric, and the usually unpredictable Scottish weather is at its best, making it the perfect time to explore.

Whether you're into comedy, theatre, music, or just soaking up the festival spirit, EdFringe is an experience you won’t want to miss!

Ps. If you ever get the chance to see Swamplesque (a Shrek parody burlesque), run dont walk 💚

Edinburgh's gotta be the best skyline in Europe 🏰

Somehow, it's always sunny when I visit ☀️

We hit the pet-sitting jackpot on our very first try with . We had the pleasure of looking after the gorgeous Gracie and her feline siblings Clara & Rory at a magnificent estate in the English countryside.

Dearest gentle reader, today I took a most delightful promenade through Bath and visited the modiste 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🫖💂‍♂️🦢👗

York: Where history meets mystery 🕰️ It's the most haunted city in England... or so they say 👀👻

Did you know The Shambles is said to be the inspiration for Diagon Alley? 🧙‍♀️🪄

Channelling our inner Peaky Blinder at the Black Country Museum 🥃

The museum was a key filming location for the show, so I can now say I've stood on the same ground as Cillian Murphy 🥵

We also went on a tour of the old mine, walking through dark tunnels and seeing what it was like to work underground. It was cramped, cold, and a bit eerie, giving us a real sense of how tough life was for the miners.

After that, we took part in a 1912 school lesson, where the teacher was very strict. We had to sit up straight, answer questions, and follow old-fashioned rules.

Ryan, unfortunately, got into trouble and ended up getting the cane >>> swipe to watch 🙈

Short & sweet stop in Amsterdam ✨️

We spent all our time reuniting with family & friends.

Ryan's dad met us after being separated for 4 months & we caught up with our friends Shaun & Elisa, who took us out on their boat to explore the canals 🥹❤️

Ps. bitterballen is the goat 🐐

We built our world tour around the Euros in Germany, and we didn't get a single ticket 🥲
