A City Guide to: Cardiff

Image
Hello Wonderful People! Cardiff was my university city and will always hold a special place in my heart. I absolutely love it! Call me biased, but I honestly believe you’d be hard pushed to find a better city to go to uni. Yes, I know everyone loves their uni city and think there’s nowhere better to go, but they’re wrong. And I’m right, obviously. Cardiff is a pretty small city, but it has everything you could possibly want in an easily accessible area. The Welsh capital has everything from castles, to beaches, to great bars and restaurants, plus the beautiful Welsh countryside is right on your doorstep; what more could you want?

Lima

Hola Gente Maravillosa! Lima was the last stop on my month long whistle stop tour of South America. I  hadn't  heard great things about the city, mainly that it was pretty unsafe and there wasn't a fat lot to do there. It’s safe to say that Lima isn't the nicest looking city in the world, and has an extremely run down feeling to it. We stayed in Mira Flores, one of the safest and nicest areas of the city as we didn't want to risk staying in any dodgy areas. One of our friends got mugged at gunpoint in Lima, so we were pretty wary about where to stay and where to go. However, our stay in Lima was completely trouble free and we found enough things to do to keep us entertained for a few days.
