[Advertisement - this is a paid collaboration with NØRDIK, but all words and opinions are my own] I'm very aware that I have quite a few readers in North America who love Nordic design as much as I do, but who often struggle to find brands that will deliver across the Atlantic.

A city break in Almería
Although Chris and I spent most of our recent trip to Andalucía visiting friends in the Cabo de Gata Natural Park, we also took the opportunity to enjoy a three-night break in Almería - a treat to ourselves in the run-up to our second wedding anniversary.
