10 Things to do in Belfast City

This post is based on a visit in August 2024 and everything mentioned was paid for by myself. Please check with venues direct for the most up-to-date info as it can change. 

Belfast is somewhere Harry is considering applying to for Uni next year. Joining a University in Northern Ireland has lots of pros and cons which we have gone through however nothing beats actually visiting a city to get a feel for it. 

A Day Trip to Verona

This is based on a visit in June 2024 by myself and Steve. We paid for our own activities. Please check with venues direct for the most up-to-date information. 

During our trip to Lake Garda in June 2024, we decided to take two train trips. One to Venice (90 mins by train direct) and another to Verona (13 mins by train direct). 

Venice, I Love You

This post is based on a visit (just myself and Steve) in June 2024 paid for by ourselves. Always check with venues direct for the most op to date info. 

I absolutely love Italy and have previously enjoyed trips to Genoa, Tuscany and Florence (plus we are off to Rome in the Autumn). Venice has never really been a bucket list destination for me though. 

However when we were planning our trip to Lake Garda, lots of people mentioned that we must visit Venice as it's only 90 minutes on the train direct. It felt like we had to. I debated for ages about actually staying over and in the end, I did book a hotel and I'm so pleased we did as Venice at night was just magical.
