You’ve probably done a sauna… but maybe not like this.

This ended up being one of the most unique wellness experiences I’ve tried. It’s surprisingly social, everyone chatting, sharing drinks and just slowing down together.
The sauna is heated to around 80°C, which is typical for a traditional Finnish sauna and the wood-fired stove makes the heat feel softer and more even, so it’s intense but actually really relaxing rather than overwhelming.

We had Finnish long drinks (a gin and grapefruit soda mix) straight from the onboard fridge, tried traditional snacks like Karelian pies and moved between the heat, the sea air and a very quick dip in the Baltic.

It was freezing, but that contrast between hot, cold and fresh air is what boosts circulation and leaves you feeling incredibly reset after.

📍 This is Helsinki.

I’ve always been fascinated by the Vikings and what life would’ve actually felt like back then and this was the closest I’ve ever come to that.

You can walk through a full Viking settlement with people cooking over fires, weaving by hand and a blacksmith forging chainmail right in front of you with sparks flying.

There are Viking warriors preparing for battle, fisherwomen showing traditional techniques, even animals wandering through the village and you just take it all in as you walk through.

This is all part of Kynren, a huge live outdoor show telling the story of England through different time periods and the Viking village is just one part before the main show starts.

Kynren runs on selected Friday and Saturday dates from the 18th July to the 12th September.

📍 Kynren, County Durham

Save this for when you need a reset 📌 AD

The world’s happiest country isn’t far, it’s closer than you think. And while it feels further away, it’s incredibly easy to reach and even easier to explore once you’re there.

And that’s what makes it feel so different.

Wellness isn’t a trend here, it’s just a way of life.

You feel it in the closeness to nature, in the sauna culture and in the way the city is designed to be simple. You can walk almost everywhere, public transport just works and everything feels calm without trying.

There’s a real sense of intention in how everything is done.

You leave feeling better than when you arrived.

This is Helsinki.

If you’ve been watching my stories, you’ll have seen we’ve been in the Maldives recently… and we were so excited to go back to our favourite resort in the world 🥹

There’s just something about this place, the water, the villas, the atmosphere — that makes it impossible not to love

We’ve also met some of the most amazing people here over our visits… and even heard of guests who have been back 20… even 40 times (!!)

For full transparency, we actually booked most of this trip using points — Avios for the flights and hotel loyalty points for the stay, which we’ve built up and saved over time so we could return to a place we love ✈️

I’ll be sharing much more from our stay so you can see exactly what makes it so special ✨

Did you recognise anything in this video?!

I’d wanted to visit here for such a long time and it ended up being one of those places that did not disappoint in person.

We spent the day here as a family, wandering the narrow lanes, sitting by the harbour and just taking our time with it.

You might recognise it without realising, it’s been used as the filming location for Doc Martin (as Port Wenn), and also features in the Fisherman’s Friends films.

It’s also home to one of the narrowest passageways in the UK, just 18 inches wide 🤯 We didn’t find it this time, but it’s definitely on the list for our next visit.

This is Port Isaac in Cornwall and it really didn’t disappoint 🤍

This isn’t just one moment in time… it’s a whole mix of different eras, all brought to life in one place.

You can walk from an Edwardian street into a 1950s town, step into old shops, watch people working the way they used to, and even ride a steam train.

It’s one of those places that feels way more immersive than you expect. I’ve been more than once now and still notice something new every time.

Your ticket also lasts a full year, so you can keep going back and exploring different parts of it.

If you love anything nostalgic, you’ll love this.

Save this to inspire your next coastal trip 🌊

I’ve rounded up some of my favourite coastal places in England from the ones I’ve visited so far, and I don’t think I’ll ever get bored of exploring our coastline.

There’s something about these kinds of places. The winding streets, sea views and little corners that feel like they haven’t changed in years.

I’d love to know if there are any you’d add to this list 🤍

I can’t believe it took me so long to visit – but I was so glad that I did!

Between golden hour by the sea and slow mornings with waves outside the window, this place was the perfect English seaside break.

📍Location at the end 📍

Here are the things I’d recommend doing in this beautiful seaside town, known for its fossil-filled beaches, coastal views and timeless charm:

🏡 Stay with @lymeregisstays
We stayed at Austen’s Garret, a boutique holiday let with dreamy views over the rooftops and out to sea. It’s named after Jane Austen, who spent time here and set scenes from Persuasion in this town.

🌊 Walk The Cobb
**Currently closed** A historic seawall with sweeping views along the coastline, and one of the most iconic spots linked to Persuasion.

🪨 Explore Charmouth & the South West Coast Path
Part of the Jurassic Coast and perfect for a slow seaside walk with incredible scenery.

🦕 Spot fossils at Monmouth Beach
Fossils from millions of years ago are scattered through the rocks. You can literally see history beneath your feet.

🥐 Brunch at Town Mill Bakery
Tucked in Lyme’s artisan quarter with sourdough, pastries and locally roasted coffee.

☕ Grab coffee at Kiosk and drink it on the beach
Super casual, super local. One of my favourite slow moments.

🏛️ Visit Lyme Regis Museum
A lovely little stop just off the seafront, with local stories, fossils and links to Jane Austen’s time here.

🌿 Wander through Langmoor and Lister Gardens
Gorgeous views across the bay and the perfect place for a quiet moment away from the crowds.

📚 Find the garden overlooking the sea
A peaceful spot inspired by Jane Austen, ideal for a quiet pause with a view.

🔥 Try the beach sauna
We didn’t get to this, but it’s a great way to warm up after a sea dip.

📍Lyme Regis, Dorset
