When is the best time to visit...

There are many factors to think about when planning a holiday, as we all want it to be perfect and I am here to help you. One of the most important thoughts though is about the weather and I do get asked often about the conditions in certain countries at different time of the year. So I have put together this blog and I hope you find it useful, but please do feel free to contact me with any questions you may have.
