Travel Guide
Liverpool
The story starts in Liverpool and life here at first is good until a marriage collapses and the rot sets in…
Bold Street
“I love Bold Street with its artisan shops and independent little restaurants and coffee shops facing each other cross a cobbled street. “
Pier Head
When we had finished out shopping my aunt would take me to Pier Head, where we would have hot chocolate and doughnuts fro a mobile caravan cafe that overlooked the River Mersey. Occasionally, we would take a ferry across the Mersey to New BRighton and spend an hour at the funfair.”
Rhodes
What better place to come and get over your past?
I never forgot the twinkling of the Mediterranean Sea and the long beaches with sand so hot it burns your feet.
I’m drawn in by the Beauty of Rhodes, I’d forgotten just how picturesque it is, with its beautiful long beaches flanked by pine forest and mountains, and my childhood memories come rushing back.”
Street of the Knights
“Suddenly I am transported back to medieval times, as we stand at the end of a long, cobbled street called the Street of Knights. Costas tells me it is a fifteenth century street that houses the inns and eateries frequented by the knights who belong to the order of St John”
