Matt Coughlan - ArticlesEngland - A charming countryEngland's colourful history, cultural diversity and varying landscapes come together to create a fascinating country for visitors to explore. Whilst many associate England with being grey & rainy, those that do get out and about will find these spells don't last long and that they are broken up by long sunny spells, and with the days made balmy by the warm ocean currents flowing around the country it's a great place in which to get out and about for some fresh air. Ayers Rock AdventureAyers rock is one of the seven wonders of the natural world, having been slowly sculpted over the last 55 million years. Ayers rock is 986ft high and is made entirely from sandstone, but the visible rock is in fact just a small part of a rock that sinks almost 2500ft into the ground. An adventure in TiranaIf you’re looking for a holiday which steers away from the stereotypical sun sea and sand destinations a trip to Tirana, the capital of Albania, could be the ideal place to visit. This emerging capital has cleaned up it’s image since the 90’s, and is on a continuing mission to create a beautiful and modern city were people want to be. Monastir - A Tunisian paradiseMonastir is a Tunisian city in the North East of the country. It is growing in popularity as a prime beach holiday destination, with its balmy Mediterranean weather and just a short transfer from the airport. The beach offers an extensive stretch of fine white sands fading gently into the crystal clear turquoise waters. Monastir - The perfect beach holidayMonastir is a city located in North Eastern Tunisia, right in the middle of 1300 km of sweeping North African coastline. Around 40% of Tunisia is in fact made up from Saharan Desert, but this is a far cry from the old fishing port of Monastir. Holidays Homes - Why stay anywhere else?With 52 weekends, 8 bank holidays and 24 days holiday a year, where would you choose to spend your time off work? This makes up as much as 136 days off, so why not get away and spend your time in a luxurious holiday home? Dubai - A sun worshippers paradiseIt was only back in the late 1970's that Dubai was still a barren corner of the Persian gulf, but since the United Arab Emirates was formed in 1979, Dubai has seen a period of growth unlike anything that has been witnessed before. The city now bears hardly any resemblance to its past. Dubai - Understanding the cities backgroundDubai is a city everyone knows today as being a centre of wealth, grand designs and the exotic, but there are several theories as to how it was originally named. A guide to making savingsWhatever you are saving for, be it a mortgage deposit, a holiday or even your wedding, it doesn’t have to be difficult to set a little extra aside each month. Be thrifty and frugal, and as my nanna would often say “Look after the Pennies and the Pounds will look after themselves!” ISA’s in a nutshellIn the UK, each tax year every person aged 16 or over is eligible for a £3600 Cash ISA allowance. In many ways a Cash ISA is much like a normal savings account, but it has one major difference… the taxman can’t get near it. If you have money in a savings account and you are not using your Cash ISA allowance then you are further engorging the taxman’s pockets!
