Picturesque landscapes: New Zealand

Business & Lifestyle Publishing

New Zealand has to be one of my top five destinations not because it is on the way home for me when I travel back to Fiji Islands but the terrain truly is breathtaking.

Harmony of the Seas The World’s Largest Cruise ship

Business & Lifestyle Publishing

My first cruise holiday started with Royal Caribbean seven years ago setting sail from Barcelona for a week exploring different European cities along the way and even for a seasoned traveller like me, I was impressed and came to the conclusion that to really unwind, there is no better way than being on a ship miles away from distraction. Especially as the team at Royal Caribbean looked after my daughter as their own leaving me to enjoy the spa and activities on board. Few weeks ago I boarded again a Royal Caribbean ship that currently is the biggest cruise ship … Continue reading Harmony of the Seas The World’s Largest Cruise ship
