Sujata: England & Dubai trip
"In September when I visited London I hadn’t been to this most amazing city for more than 16 years. It was great to get my bearings back after just a couple of hours of walking around the inner city. I did all the tourist things but my highlight has to be the visit to Buckingham Palace. I was sufficiently impressed by Warwick Castle and loved Oxford too. I had to include some shopping as well so be sure to ask me for my tips. On the way back I stopped at Abu Dhabi for a few days and managed to squeeze in an overnight trip to Dubai too. The Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi is a beautiful monument and having visited the Taj Mahal a couple of times, I will say that  this is the modern day Taj. Burj Khalifa in Dubai is the tallest building and I went up to the observation deck on the 124th  floor. Dubai is an interesting city with a lot of superlatives be it their biggest malls or their largest gold souks."

Stine: Trip to Gold Coast…
" I went to the Gold Coast for the first time ever in May for 10 days and had the most amazing experience. We stayed in properties along Broadbeach and Surfer’s Paradise in all types of accommodation and got the chance to experience a wide variety of activities on offer on the Gold coast, from Surf Lessons to viewing wildlife to Parasailing to Dracula’s Show and much much more. I learnt that the Gold Coast has something to offer everyone, no matter what budget or style they require. I loved it!"
