![Back on track 🚆 With so much uncertainty, it's been a strange time to be thinking or writing about travel. But after pretty much blankly staring at a screen for the last month I’m back blogging and using the time to catch up on some of the projects that've been lurking on my to-do list for too long. And first up is embracing my train geek side and creating full itineraries for my one-week European rail trip ideas. If you fancy exploring Europe by train when the world opens up again, these posts will tell you what trains to take, how much they cost, how to book and what to see along the way. The first is Northern Europe by train – a week-long trip packed with canals, chocolate, cosmopolitan cities and the stunning scenery of the Swiss Alps [link in bio]

![With its spectacular architecture, Prague isn’t known as the ‘City of a Hundred Spires’ for nothing, but it’s also got 30 bridges, castles, palaces, parks and gardens to explore – and not to mention Europe’s cheapest beer. But although Eastern Europe is known for its good value, Prague’s popularity has pushed prices up for visitors. So if this gorgeous city’s on your wishlist, my new post [link in bio] has all my top tips for saving money on sights, views, food, transport and more to make the most of Prague on a budget .

![#ad Canada's a country that really captured my heart – and my new post [link in bio] is an epic two-week road trip itinerary right across the heart of the country, travelling from Calgary to Toronto, from the prairies to the lakes. Along the way we found everything we’d expect from Canada – spectacular landscapes, wildlife, great hiking and kayaking routes, First Nations history and delicious food and drink – but with a few twists along the way too
