A year of memorable moments

IT IS hard to imagine that another year has seamlessly slipped anchor and we are into 2016, with the diary already filling up with new adventures. 2015 was a busy time for Essential Journeys, with trips to Canada, France, Switzerland, Austria, Holland, Turkey, Greece, Northern Ireland, and our own fair isle. As a happy reflection of my recent travels, I have compiled a small selection of photographs, with accompanying links, should you wish to gain a further insight into any of the destinations. In the meantime, a Happy New Year to you all!
