Brighton: A Vintage Shopper’s Paradise

A Vintage Shopper’s Paradise on the Sussex Coast It’s true, Brighton seems to be a vintage shopper’s paradise these days, and quite a bit more than just somewhere to go for a seaside day out.

Waiting for my flight home from Delhi airport (and Waiting for my flight home from Delhi airport (and what an airport - there's no danger of coming home with a pocket full of rupees, that's for sure, plenty of lovley gift shops to take care of that). My little taste of India was worth all the early starts and long drives throughout. I really enjoyed it, and felt like I'd escaped my reality and entered into another world - a very colourful and decorative world where despite the chaos and crowds, harmony seemed to prevail - not just amongst people, but between people and animals too.💛 #India #Delhiairport #travel #travelbloggers #wanderlust #vacationmode #vacation #indiatravel #indiatravelgram #indiatrip #indiatourism #Indian #travelinspiration #pink

The one and only.......🕌 Looking at the Taj Mah The one and only.......🕌
Looking at the Taj Mahal from a distance looks just like the pictures you see in books/social media, but when you're stood right up against it's walls and the sun is beaming off all that white marble and you look up and feel it's size and height, it's pretty spectacular, especially against a beautiful blue sky👌
One of the seven wonders and such a sad and sweet story behind why an Indian king built this palace, and how his romance ended 💞
However - the Indian man I was sat next to on the plane ride home told me that the story they tell tourists isn't the 'real' story and that the true story is a bit more weird!!!! I need to get around to researching this - I'm intrigued!! 🧐🤔
I've got one of those silly 'holding it by the tip' pictures somewhere...😏 #India #TajMahal #palace #India #travel #travelblogger #wanderlust #vacation

The adrenaline, excitement and fear 🤪 all at the same time ( she could have jumped up on the jeep and had any one of us for breakfast lol) crazy!!!!! 🦁
