It's fair to say we eat, sleep and breathe travel, and we've visited a fair few places. So the question is: where do we go on our holidays?
Let's find out!

Ties Lagraauw, Content Manager, is going to AUSTRALIA
"This summer I'll venture to Australia! It's been on my list for years now, so I'm very excited to finally go with my family.
I visited New Zealand years ago and I've always wanted to visit its famous neighbour. My wife and I will have our toddler and 6-month-old baby in tow, so it will be an adventure regardless of what we will see or do!
We don't have a specific plan other than to enjoy some beaches and take a road trip. With two young kids, we'll take it day by day, but I know the freedom of travelling by campervan will be amazing."
Amy Hopkins, Head of Content, is going to NORTH NORFOLK
"Keep this to yourself, but when the sun's shining, England's North Norfolk coast is as perfect a summer spot as anywhere else on earth.
I've been spending part of my summer there for over a decade, ever since I met my now-husband and he introduced me to the place he grew up. Back then, North Norfolk was relatively under-the-radar (Alan Partridge fans notwithstanding), but the area has grown in popularity with every passing year. With miles of glorious sandy beaches, rolling countryside and quirky villages, it's easy to see why.
This summer, I can't wait to watch my kids run down the vast sandy stretches at Holkholm and squeal with excitement in the arcades at Wells-next-the-Sea. Of course, award-winning fish and chips from No.1 Cromer will be on the menu.
My job means I have some trips to exotic places coming up this year, but a family trip to North Norfolk is always a highlight of my travel calendar."
"A female friend and I are heading to the Dolomites in Italy this summer, to hike between rifugios (mountain huts).
Personally, I find that rustic huts are so much more fun when you know you've got a nice modern hotel to look forward to at the end of it all! I'm yet to book the latter, but somewhere that serves amazing pasta will be top of my list.
I like to get at least one trek in each year and I've long dreamt of the Dolomites, so I'm setting off for the Alta Via I. It's a popular hiking route that runs for 120km (75 miles) from Dobbiaco in the north to Belluno in the south, with an optional rest day in Cortina.
The best thing about gaining altitude (the high point of Alta Via I is 2,752m/9,029ft) is that you're rewarded with otherworldly views, which feel even more awesome when they've been earned by a few days on the trail."
